Tyra Banks ignited fervent excitement among fans for a potential Life-Size trilogy during her recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show. Banks, who famously portrayed Eve alongside Lindsay Lohan’s Casey Stuart in the beloved 2000 film, articulated her imaginative vision for a new installment.
“I feel like we should definitely do another one,” Banks expressed enthusiastically. She proposed a captivating scenario: “What if Lindsay magically turned into a doll? My Eve character could teach her how to embrace her new doll-like existence. That could be very intriguing.” This innovative concept immediately caught the attention of Drew’s News co-host Ross Mathews, who replied with enthusiasm, “You’re Tyra Banks; can you make that happen?” With a nod, Banks signaled her support for the idea, further fueling the excitement.
In the original Life-Size, Lohan’s teenage character inadvertently brings Banks’ doll, Eve, to life while attempting to resurrect her deceased mother. At the time of filming, Lohan was just 13 years old, making the film a cherished part of many childhoods.
Earlier in August, Banks had hinted at the possibility of a new Life-Size project featuring Lohan, inspired by a visit to a Polly Pocket-themed Airbnb. “Oh, Polly Pocket… BIG in memories and inspiration! Kids loved Life-Size; I guess it’s time for another script,” she remarked. Banks even addressed Lohan directly through social media, asking, “What say you, @lindsaylohan? xo Eve/TyTy,” underscoring her desire for collaboration.
In 2018, Banks reprised her role as Eve in Life-Size 2, although Lohan did not return for this installment. Instead, actress Francia Raisa co-starred alongside Banks, continuing the legacy of the original film.
The potential for a Life-Size trilogy captivates fans of all ages, offering a nostalgic nod to those who grew up with the film while introducing a new generation to its whimsical charm. With Banks at the helm of this enchanting narrative, the prospect of revisiting the world of Eve and her adventures promises to be a delightful exploration of friendship, magic, and self-discovery.
As discussions swirl around the possibility of a new chapter in the Life-Size saga, audiences eagerly await further developments, hoping to see Banks and Lohan reunite for a heartwarming continuation of their iconic story.
