Your favourite intergenerational body-swap comedy is back, folks. Freakier Friday hits theatres tomorrow with a Canadian at the film’s helm, no less. Director Nisha Ganatra has revived the beloved early aughts duo of Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan in the widely anticipated Freaky Friday sequel, with double the body-switching fun. If you want an idea of what to expect before buying tickets for this nostalgia-fest, read Barry Hertz’s review.

Ganatra isn't the only Canadian filmmaker with an Aug. 8 movie release. Amar Wala's Shook is his love letter to Scarborough. Read the review and our interview with Wala on why you may want to resist the temptation to categorize the film as a comedy.

And, if you’ve been a bit bummed since the first season of Apple TV+’s The Studio came to an end, fret not – there is more Seth Rogen to enjoy on that particular streaming service. The second season of delightful and hilarious series Platonic, featuring Rogen and Rose Byrne, is out now.
