Although

Lindsay Lohan

has experienced an onscreen comeback in recent years, she’s looking to switch up her roles.

The actress recently explained how her working relationship with

Netflix

came to be amid the COVID-19 pandemic, while admitting she “can’t do movies like these forever” after leading three romantic-comedies for the streaming platform.

“It was really Netflix. And I was manifesting it,” she told Chloe Fineman in an interview for

Elle

. “During COVID, I was like, ‘I want to work with Netflix.’ I kept writing it in my journal and saying it. And then that’s what happened. I was like, ‘Oh, it’d be nice to do three films with them, and then see where that goes. And then I definitely want to do my first feature back with Disney.’ So I manifested that, and I’m manifesting this movie now.”

During her Netflix tenure, Lohan has starred in
Falling for Christmas
(2022),
Irish Wish
(2024) and
Our Little Secret
(2024).

“I always want to make movies like that-things that make people happy and bring people together,” added Lohan. “I love making movies for that reason-for people to escape and find something that they can take into their own life and realize everything’s going to be okay. But with Netflix, I was like, ‘Okay, now we need to be thinking about other stuff.’ I can’t do movies like these forever.”

Lohan next reprises her role as Anna Coleman in Disney’s
Freakier Friday
, premiering Aug. 8 in theaters. She’s also set to lead the upcoming Hulu series

Count My Lies

, currently in development from Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger.
