Lindsay Lohan is teaming up again with filmmaker Mark Waters, the director behind the hit teen comedy Mean Girls, for a new Netflix romantic comedy titled Return to You. The reunion brings the actor and director back together more than two decades after their earlier collaborations helped create memorable moments in popular comedy films.
Filming Begins With a Nostalgic Reunion
Lohan and Waters have reunited on location near Toronto, where production on the upcoming film has begun. The pair reportedly returned to the house previously used as the Heron family home in Mean Girls, creating a nostalgic connection to their earlier work.
The reunion has attracted attention from fans who remember Lohan’s role in the 2004 comedy. Waters also directed Lohan in Freaky Friday, released in 2003, making the new project another collaboration between the two.
What Is ‘Return to You’ About?
The film follows a powerful but lonely attorney whose life takes an unexpected turn after she receives a deeply emotional DVD that was mistakenly addressed to the husband of a dying woman. Intrigued by the message, she begins following the clues on the disc in an effort to find the man connected to it.
The story combines romance and emotional discovery, with the mistaken delivery setting the central plot in motion. Actor Henry Golding is also part of the cast.
Lindsay Lohan’s Continuing Netflix Partnership
Return to You marks another project in Lohan’s ongoing partnership with Netflix, where she has also appeared in romantic comedy and holiday films. The new movie is expected to arrive in 2027, although an exact release date has not yet been announced.
The reunion with Waters adds another nostalgic element to the project, while the film’s emotional premise offers Lohan a new romantic-comedy role for streaming audiences.
