Cast

Development

In November 2012, it was announced that development on a sequel to Life-Size were underway.[5] In September 2015, Tyra Banks told Hollywood Life that a script was being worked on, and hoped to have the film released around Christmas of 2016.[6] In April 2017, it was announced that the sequel had been greenlit, for a planned debut in December 2018.[7]

In July 2018, it was revealed that Francia Raisa had been cast as Bank's cotar, with Gavin Stenhouse, Shanica Knowles, Hank Chen, and Alison Fernandez rounding out the cast.[8][3] Lindsay Lohan, who starred in the original Life-Size, was not available to film scenes because of Lohan's prior commitments to her new MTV reality show, Lohan Beach House. Banks, when asked if Lohan would have any screen time in the sequel, revealed, "There's something beautiful we do with Lindsay in this movie that'll speak to die-hard fans."[9]
