Lindsay Lohan & Henry Golding To Lead Netflix Romantic Feature ‘Return To You’ From Director Mark Waters

Lindsay Lohan (Mean Girls, Freaky Friday) is set to produce and star in the new Netflix romantic feature Return to You, starring opposite Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians, Last Christmas). Mark Waters, who directed Lohan in Freaky Friday and Mean Girls, will direct Return to You. She will also re-team with Brad Krevoy, producer of Netflix’s Falling for Christmas and Irish Wish, who will produce.

From screenwriter Eric Champnella and set in 2008, Return to You follows a powerful but lonely female attorney (Lohan) who mistakenly receives a very emotional DVD sent by a dying woman to her husband (Golding). With only the clues from the DVD as her guide, she sets out to find him.

Olivia Krevoy, Jimmy Townsend, Galen Fletcher, and Eric Champnella executive produce the film.

Both Lohan and Golding have found great success working on projects within the romance genre. Lohan’s credits include Just My Luck (2006), Falling for Christmas (2022), Irish Wish (2024) and Our Little Secret (2024). Golding was the leading man of the hugely popular Crazy Rich Asians (2018), Last Christmas (2019), Monsoon (2020), and Daniela Forever (2024).

Lohan made her feature film debut in 1998 with Walt Disney Pictures’ The Parent Trap, which she followed with roles in Disney projects such as Life-Size, Get a Clue, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, and most famously, starring opposite Jamie Lee Curtis in Freaky Friday. She recently reprised her Freaky Friday role in the sequel Freakier Friday (2025). One of her biggest roles to date is playing Cady Heron in the hugely popular teen comedy Mean Girls. Up next, she will star in and executive produce Hulu’s highly anticipated limited drama series, Count My Lies, adapted from Sophia Stava’s bestselling novel. Lohan is repped by IAG and attorney Dave Feldman.

Golding can most recently be seen in the second season of Hulu’s Nine Perfect Strangers, Another Simple Favor for Amazon MGM Studios, and Old Guard 2 for Netflix. Additional film credits include Snake Eyes, A Simple Favor, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, and Persuasion. On the series side, Golding can be seen in Guy Ritchie’s The Gentlemen for Netflix. He is repped by CAA, Megan Silverman Management, and Goodman, Genow.
