Lindsay Lohan stars alongside Ed Speleers, Alexander Vlahos, and Ayesha Curry in a new rom-com coming to Netflix, Irish Wish. The film follows Maddie (Lohan), whose long-time crush becomes engaged to her closest friend. So, somehow she still agrees to stand by their side as a bridesmaid at their wedding in Ireland. However, just before the impending nuptials, Maddie impulsively wishes for true love. She then finds herself waking up as the bride-to-be. As her fantasy appears to materialize, Maddie discovers that her true soulmate may actually be someone unexpected.
“I wanted to be a part of this story because, for one, I love classic rom-coms and this is just the epitome of that. I’m excited to be a part of something I hope will become a classic staple in people’s households that they’ll watch more than once. I also got to do it with my friend, and who doesn’t want to work with their friend?”
