For anyone who grew up in the late 90s, the name Meredith Blake conjures images of a stylish, scheming publicist who almost – almost! – broke up the perfect family in Disney’s The Parent Trap. And the actress behind that iconic role, Elaine Hendrix, has just given us a delightful glimpse into a reunion that’s stirring up all sorts of nostalgic feels.
Hendrix recently shared her experience reuniting with Lindsay Lohan, who, of course, played the mischievous twins Hallie and Annie in The Parent Trap, and is now her co-star in the upcoming movie Freakier Friday. It sounds like the set of their new film was less about on-screen rivalry and more about off-screen camaraderie.
“We spent a lot of time together on set, hanging out, reminiscing, catching up,” Hendrix revealed. It’s heartwarming to imagine these two, who shared such a pivotal film early in Lohan’s career, now reconnecting as seasoned professionals. We’ve all seen how Hollywood friendships can sometimes fade, but it seems this one has stood the test of time.
Even better, their reunion has sparked a renewed commitment to staying connected. “Now we’re better at staying in touch,” Hendrix noted. In an industry that’s constantly moving, taking the time to nurture these relationships speaks volumes about the genuine bond they share.
And the warmth in Hendrix’s words is palpable when she speaks about Lohan today: “I’m so happy for her and where she is.” After navigating the intense glare of the spotlight from a young age, Lohan has found her footing, embracing motherhood and returning to acting with a renewed sense of purpose. It’s clear that Hendrix’s happiness for her former co-star is deep and authentic.
This reunion is more than just a fun celebrity anecdote; it’s a sweet reminder of the lasting connections forged on film sets and the joy of seeing people you care about thrive. As we eagerly await Freakier Friday, which is scheduled to hit theaters on August 8, knowing that the magic off-screen is just as real as it is on-screen makes the anticipation even greater.
