Netflix releases first look at Lindsay Lohan in Irish Wish

Anna Martin

Lindsay Lohan is coming back to our screens

The actress is set to star in Irish Wish, the second of her Netflix two-feature film deal after appearing in Falling For Christmas back in 2022.

Her latest movie will be a rom-com seeing her taking on the role of Maddie and has a classic storyline that we all know and love with a bit of a twist.

The synopsis of the flick reads: “When the love of her life gets engaged to her best friend, Maddie puts her feelings aside to be a bridesmaid at their wedding in Ireland.

“Days before the pair are set to marry, Maddie makes a spontaneous wish for true love, only to wake up as the bride-to-be.

“With her dream seeming to come true, Maddie soon realizes that her real soulmate is someone else entirely.”

You have to admit that sounds very Freaky Friday like does it not?

Lindsay will be starring alongside Jane Seymour, Elizabeth Tan, Ed Speleers, Alexander Vlahos, and Ayesha Curry.

The new rom-com is directed by Janeen Damian and written by Kirsten Hansen.

This it explains why Lindsay was spotted in Westport, county Mayo back in 2022, running around in a satin wedding dress.

An August 2022 casting call on MovieExtras.ie also sought a camera body double for a “well-known actress” for the Irish Wish film shoot in Dublin and Wicklow between September and October.

“Applicants must be willing to have hair dyed red for the role if selected,” the casting call noted.

As well as Westport, other filming locations for the film are thought to include Lough Tay in the Wicklow Mountains, Killruddery House and Gardens, Bray Head and the Cliffs of Moher.
