From Tarantino's latest film to Lindsay Lohan's new one: Julia Butters's big physical transformation

American actress Julia Butters surprised the world with the film Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood , Quentin Tarantino's latest release. Her character, a child actress, had a brief but unforgettable dialogue with Leonardo DiCaprio's character. This Friday, six years after that scene-stealing moment, Freak Me Out Again , a fantasy sequel in which she shares her family with Lindsay Lohan and Jamie-Lee Curtis, opens in Spain.

In Tarantino's film, the actress demonstrated an artistic maturity unusual for her age. Now, her physical and professional evolution is reflected in her addition to the lead cast of Disney 's new production, also alongside other actors such as Sophia Hammons, Mark Harmon, and Chad Michael Murray. The long-awaited sequel revives the formula of an intergenerational comedy that marked an entire generation of viewers with the title Freaky Freak (2003).

In this new film, directed by Nisha Ganatra, Butters plays Harper, the daughter of Lohan's character, in a plot that combines comedy and family entanglements when the body-switching curse unfolds once again. The actress confessed to The New York Times that she initially felt pressure to live up to such a nostalgic title, but that, as filming progressed, she enjoyed developing her character's personality.

Their statements about the shoot reveal a close relationship between the leads, something they say is reflected in their on-screen chemistry and the ease with which they handled the most demanding scenes . Beyond the physical transformation, what stands out in this new era is Julia Butters' consolidation as one of Hollywood 's promising young stars.

From her role in Steven Spielberg 's acclaimed film, The Fabelmans (2022), to her leap into the sequel of Freak Me Out , the actress demonstrates a versatility that combines acting talent and on-camera charisma. The film premieres on August 8 , reaffirming her international projection and establishing her as a key name among new Hollywood talent.
