Cast Of Freaky Friday: How Much Are They Worth Now?
Published on March 28, 2016. Updated August 4, 2017Back in 2003, Disney remade the 1976 film Freaky Friday with a slew of young and veteran stars. Lindsay Lohan, who was quickly becoming one of the generations biggest stars, took on the lead role while Jamie Lee Curtis starred as her mother. In the film, their souls switch bodies, leading to hilarious and emotional situations. A lot has changed, in ways both good and bad, in the 14 years since the film came out for many of the stars, and it still remains a bright spot in the otherwise sporadic and turbulent career of Lohan. All these years later, check out how much the cast of Freaky Friday is worth now.

Estimated Net Worth: Unknown. Julie Gonzalo had a small role in Freaky Friday as Stacey Hinkhouse, a frenemy of Lohan’s Anna Coleman character. It was her first major movie role, and while she has continued to act, her net worth remains largely unknown. Aside from Freaky Friday, she is also known for her roles in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, A Cinderella Story, Christmas with the Kranks and as Parker Lee in Veronica Mars. She has most recently been seen in the reboot of the long-running series Dallas and appeared in the indie film Waffle Street alongside One Tree Hill star James Lafferty.

Estimated Net Worth: Unknown. Haley Hudson has had a limited acting career with her first acting roles coming in 2003. She first appeared on the series Lizzie McGuire for one episode and then landed the role of Peg in Freaky Friday, a Goth friend of Anna’s. She has since appeared in things such as Marley & Me and Weeds, as well as several single episode roles on various television series, which adds up to only 21 acting credits. As a result, her net worth remains unknown, but her lack of roles and major roles at that would land her with a net worth around $300 thousand.

Estimated Net Worth: $1.5 Million. The fact that Stephen Tobolowsky has 255 acting credits and is only worth $1.5 million is truly surprising.

She starred in Freaky Friday as Tess Coleman, and also appeared in the highly anticipated Veronica Mars film in 2014 and in recent years has turned to television fame with roles in NCIS and New Girl and a starring role in the series Scream Queens.

Estimated Net Worth: $500 Thousand. For a short period of time, Lindsay Lohan was one of the brightest young stars in the industry after beginning her career as a child model and actor with her starring role in Disney’s remake of The Parent Trap. Freaky Friday was one of her next major roles, but things really took off for her popularity after she starred in 2004’s Mean Girls. She then had roles in Herbie Fully Loaded, Just My Luck and Georgia Rule, but unfortunately the lure of the party life seemed to influence Lohan too much and her career got derailed after multiple arrests for DUIs. In 2011, she agreed to a $1 million contract with Playboy to appear nude after coming close to bankruptcy, while the IRS also took over her bank accounts to pay back the $233,000 she owed in unpaid federal back taxes. Although she earned a reported $2 million for her series with Oprah Winfrey, most of it went towards paying back taxes, as well as rehab fees and, even though she seems to have turned her life around and has stayed away from the spotlight, she only has a reported net worth of $500 thousand.
