People grow up, and things change over the years ... but fans of "Freaky Friday" evidently didn't go away, because Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis are reprising their old roles as Anna and Tess Coleman in "Freakier Friday!"

We know it's been 22 years since the mother-daughter duo switched bodies and had to fill each other's lives while working out their personal differences -- but the fandom for the movie stayed strong, and their patience is being rewarded with a sequel to the 2003 flick!

Horror auteur Eli Roth's latest project will strike a chord with fans of murder, because it's a trailer for a movie about a killer who uses pianos to make people B-flat.

Okay, "The Piano Killer" isn't a real movie (yet), but the trailer will play in theaters exclusively before screenings of "Jimmy and Stiggs," the first movie from Roth's media company The Horror Section, that opens in theaters Friday, August 15.

"J&S" is an insane, over-the-top alien invasion splatter flick, which Roth describes as "'Evil Dead' if it starred Cheech and Chong." And it's the only place you can see "The Piano Killer" trailer theatrically (along with another mystery fake trailer), which by our account, contains the most realistic depiction of piano murder ever committed to film.

"You're not my mother, get away from me, you clone freak!"

Happy Saturday y'all ... You've come to the right place for a fun sneaky game ... Can you bag up the 'Freaky' frigin' differences in these two shots of Jamie Lee Curtis?!

Earlier this week in Sydney, Australia, the Hollywood actress stepped out for the "Freakier Friday" premiere in this red-hot look, but some things are amiss.

Strut your stuff and walk up to the images ... Do you think you've got what it takes to score the changes?!

Tom Hanks is saying farewell to late Apollo 13 astronaut James Lovell ... who Tom famously played on the big screen.

In 1995's "Apollo 13" Tom plays Lovell, who died Thursday at 97.

Tom is remembering Lovell in a heartfelt post on social media, saying ... "There are people who dare, who dream, and who lead others to the places we would not go on our own. Jim Lovell, who for a long while had gone farther into space and for longer than any other person of our planet, was that kind of guy."

John Leguizamo isn't pulling a Dean Cain and volunteering with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement ... he says that's for losers.

The actor hopped on social media Friday and blasted the 'Lois & Clark' star for supporting ICE, volunteering to become an officer and helping boost their recruiting numbers.

John says Dean is a loser and a moron for volunteering to help deport illegal immigrants ... and then he hits Dean with the big blow ... telling him his pronouns are "has been."

Reneé Rapp has no idea who Joe Rogan is ... and her fans are losing their minds.

Check out the viral clip from this week's "Call Her Daddy" podcast ... the singer and actress is asked a Rogan-related question by host Alex Cooper -- Rapp responds by asking "who the f***" Joe is ... she's then shocked he's the same height as she is when she Googles him.

Alex is clearly amused by this blunt question ands asks Reneé if she knows what "Fear Factor" or the UFC are. The 'Queen of Gen Z' admits she has no idea what 'FF' is and asks if Joe is a UFC fighter ... to which Alex replies she's not even sure!

11:23 AM PT -- The general manager of Weir Canyon Honda -- which owns the vandalized billboard -- tells TMZ the display has been taken down.

Members of the Proud Boys are all in on Sydney Sweeney's controversial American Eagle ad, at least according to a vandalized billboard near the City of Angels ... and it's not because of her jeans -- it's about her genes.

A billboard along an L.A.-area freeway was spotted this week with a banner that reads ... "Proud Boys love Sydney Sweeney. She has the best blue genes."

It's unclear when the banner was put up in Corona, about 40 miles east of L.A., or who exactly is behind it ...  but one local resident tells KABC-TV it makes them feel "angry, scared, disappointed."

Gina Carano has wrapped up her lawsuit against Disney for wrongful termination and sex discrimination after she was fired from "The Mandalorian" -- we've learned she’s struck a settlement deal and moved on.

TMZ obtained court documents showing the parties agreed to dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice, and sources with direct knowledge tell us ... Lucasfilm/The Walt Disney Company and Gina Carano reached a mutual agreement to put the legal dispute behind them.

A Lucasfilm spokesperson issued a statement ... "Ms. Carano was always well respected by her directors, co-stars, and staff, and she worked hard to perfect her craft while treating her colleagues with kindness and respect."

Eddie Murphy is openly admitting not every movie in his filmography is great ... but when it comes to his geeky rom-com "Norbit," he feels it earned its place in nerdcore!!!

The Hollywood legend recently sat down with Complex and came clean that his films 'Pluto Nash' and "Holy Man" were not his best work -- but he pushed back on the criticism of 2007's "Norbit."

Eddie says he wrote the film with his late brother/fellow actor Charlie Murphy, and they both approved how the film turned out.

Sydney Sweeney is a total jean-ius ... trading her real-life denim drama for some high-fashion fiction -- 'cause she just popped up on the set of "The Devil Wears Prada 2."

Onlookers spotted the actress stepping out of a trailer in the vicintity of Emily Blunt in rainy NYC Wednesday, rocking an oversized blue hoodie with the hood pulled over her face and casual bottoms -- clearly trying to keep things low-key between takes.

It’s unclear exactly why Sydney was going full incognito mode -- her role hadn't been officially confirmed before this sighting, so if she’s just making a cameo, she might’ve been trying to keep the catwalk under wraps a little longer.

Machine Gun Kelly’s making it loud and clear -- Megan Fox is the real MVP when it comes to their newborn, Saga Blade Fox-Baker ... and he’s got a hilarious story to back it up.

MGK stopped by "Today with Jenna and Friends," sharing that Mama Fox was recently fuming when someone praised him as being a "good dad" for doing the bare minimum:  holding the baby.

MGK explained Megan was quick to shut down the dad applause -- and it's clearly something he agreed with... saying all he really does is play the guitar and hope the baby’s happy, while Megan’s the real MVP doing all the heavy lifting.

Armie Hammer's rape allegations have not encouraged him to develop a filter ... 'cause the dude recently told a controversial joke about how much he enjoys "roofie"-ing people.

The actor made the jests on the most recent "Armie HammerTime" podcast episode ... telling his pal and former assistant, Ashton Ramsey, that he loved to smoke a ton of cannabis back in the day.

He jokes he liked to "poison" people with marijuana ... basically get them super high -- to the point where rational thought begins to break down. As Hammer puts it, he wanted to get people so high that they "can't find their feet."

Sydney Sweeney's brother is getting in on the American Eagle ad controversy ... poking fun at the situation by showing off his good genes jeans!

Check out Trent Sweeney's post on Instagram -- he shared a snap of a certificate acknowledging he was promoted to staff sergeant in the Air Force, and laid text on top, joking ... "It’s them good jeans 🥸."

As you know ... lots of folks have been having a blast with the drama -- just this week, a Chicago strip club announced they're hosting "The Great Jeans Contest" this Saturday, and Lizzo even teased new music referencing the ad.

Heidi Fleiss is over the moon that Aubrey Plaza  is playing her in an upcoming biopic ... but she's refusing to watch it because Heidi says she's not trying to go back to the past.

Fleiss also tells TMZ ... she's not involved in the yet-to-be-named biopic, which just cast Aubrey as Heidi, who became famous back in the 1990's under the nickname the "Hollywood Madam."

As you probably recall, Heidi ran an exclusive L.A.-based prostitution ring that catered to rich and prominent clients. But she was eventually arrested and convicted in state court for pandering and handed a 3-year sentence that was overturned on appeal. She was also convicted of money laundering and tax evasion in federal court and served a few years in prison before getting released in 1999.

Heidi tells us she's seen Aubrey's work in HBO's "White Lotus" franchise and feels she's a great choice to play her on the big screen and will do a spectacular job ... but she won't see what Aubrey does here, because "the past is dead" to her and she's not trying to relive her life.

British actress Raffey Cassidy was just 13 years old when she played Athena -- the Ionic robot girl and Frank Walker's friend -- in the family/sci-fi film "Tomorrowland" back in 2015.

Raffey shared the big screen with George Clooney as the child prodigy turned inventor who's exiled from Tomorrowland, Frank Walker, Britt Robertson as the highly intelligent gal who wants to be an astronaut, Casey Newton and Hugh Laurie as the inventor and mayor of Tomorrowland, David Nix.

Other big names in the film include Tim McGraw, Judy Greer, Kathryn Hahn and Keegan-Michael Key.

The real Slim Shady stood up in NYC ... making a surprise appearance at his documentary, which had fans losing themselves.

It all went down Wednesday night on The Rooftop at Pier 17, when Eminem showed up to a sold-out theater full of his stans -- fitting, since that's also the title of his newly produced documentary.

In the video .... Eminem talks about the impact his song "Stan" had on people and how he didn't realize it would be such a big deal when he was writing it.
