Lindsay Lohan’s baby boy may not have the Annie James handshake down just yet, but he can still appreciate the double-trouble magic of “The Parent Trap.”
During an interview on “The Drew Barrymore Show” Thursday, Lohan revealed her son Luai was watching her breakout film, in which she played identical twins Hallie Parker and Annie James.
"I just wrapped a movie four days ago, and I came home from work and my son was getting ready for dinnertime," Lohan told host Drew Barrymore. "And I opened the door, and he was watching ‘The Parent Trap.’ It was just on the TV."
Lohan previously announced that she and husband Bader Shammas had welcomed a "beautiful, healthy son" in July 2022, Lohan's representative Leslie Sloane confirmed to USA TODAY. The newborn's exact birth date was not released. Luai is an Arabic name that means “shield” or “protector.”
"I just started to cry because I'm like, he doesn't even know that's mommy yet,” Lohan continued. “I was like, do I turn it off? And he was kind of just staring. Because maybe, my voice is still similar to how it was then, so I was like, maybe he knows a little bit that it's me ‘cause it sounds like me. But it was a really magical moment. I took tons of pictures of it."
Released in July 1998, “The Parent Trap” – a remake of the 1961 romantic comedy starring Hayley Mills – featured a 12-year-old Lohan in her feature-film debut. She portrayed sisters Hallie and Annie, a pair of estranged siblings who scheme to get their parents back together upon realizing they have a twin. Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson played the girls’ parents, Nick Parker and Elizabeth James.
