Chad Michael Murray wants to make a Christmas movie with Lindsay Lohan.

The former 'One Tree Hill' star had a great time reuniting with his friend on long-awaited sequel 'Freakier Friday', and now he is starring in 'The Merry Gentlemen' on Netflix at the same time as his pal releases 'Our Little Secret' on the streaming service, he hopes they can come together again for their own holiday film.

Asked about a potential Christmas movie with Lindsay, Chad told People magazine: "If we had the opportunity, it'd be great.

"For us to be able to come back together at this time where we just got done filming a movie, and now here we are both celebrating two Christmas movies at the same place, with Netflix, and they're a week or two away from each other, is pretty cool.

"We were kind of all over the place when we were doing 'Freaky Friday 2' -- so to be able to sit down and do something where it was just her and I carrying the world and both our families can come to set, it would be a really beautiful thing."

The father-of-three admitted it was "really special" to work with Lindsay - who has 17-month-old son Luai with husband Bader Shammas - after a 20-year break.

He said: "Even though we've been in and out [of] each other's lives, we've still known each other 20-something years, right?

"And to watch growth, and to see her with her little boy, and to meet her husband and just to share those experiences now that we're grown adults, it's really special. There's something very full circle about all these moments."

'Freakier Friday' - which is slated to hit cinemas in August 2025 - follows on from the 2003 original, which told the story of a single mother Tessa Coleman (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her ansty teenage daughter Anna (Lohan) who swap bodies, and are forced to masquerade as one another until a solution to their problem can be found.

 

But although the film finds Anna married to Manny Jacinto's character, and not Chad's Jake, her love interest from the original film, Jamie and Lindsay recently teased the actor still has an important role to play.

The 'True Lies' actress told Entertainment Weekly: "Manny plays Lindsay's husband. But that's like as much as we can say."

Lindsay added: "Manny is lovely. So funny."

But Jamie reassured: "Chad is in it. And boy, oh boy, is Chad in it."

Lindsay also gushed she couldn't wait for fans to see Jake in 'Freakier Friday'.

She told Variety: "It's exciting. Chad comes into the movie full force, as Jake does, in 'Freakier Friday' on the motorcycle.

"It's just a really fun movie. I feel like people are gonna laugh a lot. Along with a lot of heart, there's other stories in it to tell. I'm really excited to share it with everyone."
