Lindsay Lohan brought The Parent Trap into the year 2022 as she shared a video of her 35-year-old self taking on an iconic scene from the film.
The actor wowed young viewers with her performance as both Annie and Hallie in the 1998 children's comedy, with many kids convinced that Lohan must have had a real-life twin sister in order to take on the challenge.
More than 20 years later some people still find it hard to believe that she could portray both a Brit and an American so well, but Lohan proved she can still adopt the British persona as she shared a moment from the movie on TikTok.

The video pays homage to a now-infamous line from the film, in which Annie tells her twin: 'I have class and you don't.'
Lohan mouthed along to the movie in her TikTok video before adding a caption which reads: 'you heard it here first'.
The recreation comes ahead of the movie's 25th anniversary next year and prompted many viewers to praise the actor for the throwback, which has racked up more than 1.7 million likes.
It even earned attention from the official TikTok account, which wrote: 'oh, don't do this to me. i’m already seeing double'.
Other viewers described the video as 'iconic' and 'nostalgic', while one person wrote: 'This just healed my inner child'.
Charles Shyer, writer and producer of The Parent Trap, has previously said he and director Nancy Meyers knew very quickly during the interview process that they wanted Lohan to take on the roles of Annie and Hallie.
Speaking to Katie Couric, per the New York Post, he said: 'I would say within two or three minutes we both knew she had the part. You couldn’t beat her. She was just amazing.'
Meyers added: 'She had the quality that just sort of leapt up at you and pulled you in'.
Lohan was just 11 years old when she appeared in The Parent Trap, which provided her with her first audition for a film. She told Couric: 'I was so young and it was just so fresh. For me, my first movie audition, my first screen test. My first time in front of, you know, people like Nancy and Charles, and on a sound stage. So, I was just, like, a kid.'
Lohan went on to say the film didn't feel like 'work', and instead just a 'really incredible learning experience' and 'a lot of fun'.
