During their chat, the group remembered their late costar Richardson, who died in March 2009. Two decades after The Parent Trap hooked a new generation on the twin-switch story line, the cast virtually reunited. Nick had fallen for a young 26-year-old named Meredith Blake ( Elaine Hendrix) while her sister was away at camp, but luckily, Annie (who was pretending to be Hallie) had housekeeper Cheesy ( Lisa Ann Walter) in her corner. Hallie enlisted the help of the twins’ grandfather (Ronnie Stevens) and butler Martin ( Simon Kunz) while getting to know her mum in England.Īnnie, for her part, was tasked with breaking up their dad’s new relationship.

Sure, the girls had a battle of wits at the all-girls camp, but ultimately, they hatched a plan to switch places and with any luck reunite their parents. While the twins had no idea that the other existed - Annie lived in London with their mom, Elizabeth James ( Natasha Richardson), and Hallie grew up in California with their dad, Nick Parker ( Dennis Quaid) - they quickly bonded. The 1998 film, which starred Lindsay Lohan as identical twins, Annie James and Hallie Parker, followed the sisters after they are reunited while attending the same Camp Walden summer camp ahead of their 12th birthday. Get the picture? More than three decades after Hayley Mills wooed fans in 1961’s The Parent Trap, Disney reboot the classic and produced an equally as big box office hit.
