With news that The Princess Diaries is almost certainly getting a third sequel, Lindsay Lohan may now be getting a little impatient for her own revisit to a past classic.

So that may be just a touch of hint-dropping happening in her use of the app Dubsmash to recreate her debut role as Annie James (and Hallie Parker) in 1998's The Parent Trap.

Lohan mimed along to that impeccably prim English accent from the film stating, as Annie, "Actually, we're all quite fine in here, unless Hallie Parker knows something we don't know"; all before posting the video to her Instagram.


A remake of the 1961 original, The Parent Trap saw Lohan star as long-lost twins Hallie Parker and Annie James; reunited at summer camp, the sisters hatch a scheme to bring back together their divorced parents by switching places.

The film marked Lohan's cinematic debut, and a partnership with Disney that led her to star in the likes of Freaky Friday, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, and Herbie Fully Loaded. She clearly owes a fair amount to her star-making first feature, and hasn't appeared to have lost her gratitude or fondness for the movie.

She also posted a still of herself from the film in honour of St. Patrick's Day, with the caption; "Happy St. Patrick's Day Reds! May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow. And may trouble avoid you wherever you go."


Though her career may not entirely be on-fire of the moment, she'll be following up guest appearances on 2 Broke Girls and Eastbound & Down with supernatural thriller The Shadow Within.
