Tyra Banks and Freeform announced today that Life Size 2 is finally happening this holiday season on Freeform, but there was something missing from the press release. That thing is Lindsay Lohan. Instead, this movie is starring grown-ish’s, Francia Raisa.
According to the press release, “Raisa will play Grace Manning, the confident and funny CEO of Marathon Toys, a huge toy company started by her mother that is most famous for manufacturing the iconic Eve doll. Grace is also a hot mess in the middle of her quarter-life crisis and realizing that she is in over her head as CEO. To make matters worse, her wild-child ways are causing the company’s stock to plummet.” Then they added who is also guest starring in the telemovie, “Gavin Stenhouse as Grace’s potential love interest Calum; Shanica Knowles as Tahlia and Hank Chen as Brendan, who are Grace’s best friends; along with Alison Fernandez as Lex, Grace’s young next-door neighbor.”
Missing, as you can see, is Lohan, which makes me wonder is worth making without her? To me, Life Size is more Lohan than Banks. Although, I have admired Raisa since she was brilliant on The Secret Life of an American Teenager, so I am torn.
How do you feel about this news?
