Jamie Lee Curtis is a true Hollywood star. Following in the footsteps of her famous actor parents, she’s proven herself incredibly versatile, excelling in comedies, horror films, and action movies. She even performs her own stunts! Recently, she drove a bright red convertible for a fun scene with Lindsay Lohan in the upcoming 2025 film, *Freakier Friday*.
Jamie Lee Curtis Got High Praise For Her Car Stunt Work In Freakier Friday
So, the new *Freaky Friday* is finally out to own digitally, and it comes with some cool behind-the-scenes stuff. I was especially fascinated by the featurette called “Making Things Freakier.” The director, Nisha Ganatra, talked about filming that wild car chase scene with Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan – you know, when they’re stuck in each other’s bodies and tearing around L.A. in Jake’s car. She was explaining how they actually shot it, and it sounded pretty crazy!
Even the professionals from the Fast and the Furious team—our stunt coordinator and performers—were amazed by Jamie Lee Curtis’s driving skills. When we put Lindsay Lohan in the car with her, it seemed like Lindsay wasn’t acting scared; she genuinely was terrified.
Surprisingly, Jamie Lee Curtis actually performed some of her own stunts in *Freakier Friday*, and was even listed as a stunt driver! Her stunt double, Jennifer Caputo, previously worked on the first *Fast & Furious* film, which is known for its demanding driving stunts. The fact that they allowed the 66-year-old actress to do some of the driving herself highlights her skill, especially considering reports that she was considered one of the best they’d ever seen.
Ganatra mentioned that Lindsay Lohan was occasionally in the car too, and was actually quite scared of Curtis’s reckless driving. You can clearly see Lohan’s fear in the scene, and it’s likely she didn’t have to try very hard to act convincingly, considering Curtis drove around Los Angeles as if he’d just gotten his learner’s permit.
What Other Famous Stunts Has Jamie Lee Curtis Done?
A newly discovered deleted scene from *Freaky Friday* offers a deeper look into Lindsay Lohan’s portrayal of her mother after they switch bodies, and fans are excited about the extra content.
Jamie Lee Curtis performed all of her own stunts, including a daring helicopter sequence and limousine driving, in the movie *True Lies* alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger, directed by James Cameron. In a 2023 interview with IndieWire, Curtis revealed she’s incredibly fearless and eager to tackle almost any stunt work.
Jamie Lee Curtis performed almost all of her own stunts in the 2022 film *Halloween Kills*, including a particularly impactful moment where her character’s head is smashed into glass – an idea she actually suggested herself, according to Business Insider. She’s always been a talented actress, but learning this makes her even more impressive and explains why she’s become such a legend.
