Lisa Ann Walter is ready for a Parent Trap sequel with Lindsay Lohan.

Walter, who played the beloved character Chessy in the 1998 film, revealed to People that she would “absolutely” sign up for a second movie. “I would love to go back for another version of it,” she told the magazine at the NAACP Image Awards on March 17.

This isn’t the only time she’s expressed interest in a follow-up. Speaking to Bustle at the 2023 Screen Actors Guild Awards, she and Parent Trap co-star Elaine Hendrix (aka Meredith Blake) said they would “absolutely” do another movie.

Unfortunately, Walter told Parade in March 2023 that “nobody has called” about a second film. But don’t worry; she has other roles in mind for Lohan.

She previously revealed to Entertainment Tonight that Lohan was her ideal guest star for the Emmy-winning sitcom Abbott Elementary, on which she plays teacher Melissa Schemmenti. “I guess we’d have to make her a relative since we’re both redheads — since I’m a ‘redhead,’ and she actually is,” Walter joked. “I would love that. That would be so fun.”

While neither a Parent Trap sequel nor Abbott Elementary guest spot are confirmed, Lohan did recently confirm a follow-up to another of her defining movies: 2003’s Freaky Friday.

“It’s happening,” Lohan recently shared on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live, adding that she and co-star Jamie Lee Curtis are “excited” about the long-awaited sequel.
