The Disneyland Resort turned into the ultimate throwback concert venue today as Pink Slip, the fictional band from Disney’s Freaky Friday, made a surprise appearance at Tomorrowland Terrace in celebration of the upcoming sequel, Freakier Friday. The performance was introduced by members of the star-studded cast, including Jamie Lee Curtis, Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons, Manny Jacinto, and Chad Michael Murray, setting the stage for the band’s iconic return.
Fans were treated to a high-energy rendition of “Take Me Away”, the breakout anthem from the original 2003 film, now freshly re-recorded for the new movie’s soundtrack. The band—Christina Vidal Mitchell, Haley Hudson, Danny Rubin, and Chris Carlberg—reunited live on stage, bringing a wave of early 2000s nostalgia with a modern edge. After the show, the cast posed with Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle to commemorate the Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration.
The Freakier Friday original motion picture soundtrack will be released by Hollywood Records on August 1, and features:
-
A new recording of “Take Me Away”
-
Original new tracks
-
A fresh score by composer Amie Doherty
Directed by Nisha Ganatra, Freakier Friday picks up years after Tess (Curtis) and Anna (Lohan) last swapped lives. Now, Anna has a daughter and a soon-to-be stepdaughter—and when a new freaky switch-up occurs, chaos and comedy collide again.
The film stars returning favorites and fresh faces, including Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Rosalind Chao, Vanessa Bayer, Mark Harmon, and more. It’s produced by Kristin Burr and Andrew Gunn, with Jamie Lee Curtis also stepping into a producing role, and Lindsay Lohan serving as executive producer.
Freakier Friday opens exclusively in theaters on August 8, 2025.
