The sequel to “The Twins” cannot be filmed due to the tragic death of his co-star, says Dennis Quaid

Dennis Quaid has distanced himself from a long-rumored sequel to his 1998 hit The Twin Trapand found it difficult given the death of his co-star.

The actor starred alongside Lindsay Lohan and the late Natasha Richardson in the film, which is a remake of the 1961 classic film of the same name starring British actress Hayley Mills.

Lohan played twins Hallie and Annie, who were separated at birth when their parents (Quaid and Richardson) split up and each got custody of a baby. The pair are happily reunited at summer camp and switch places in each other's lives.

While he was talking about his new film on the red carpet Reaganin which he plays the late US President Ronald Reagan, Quaid said that he would like to make a sequel to the film but thinks it is impossible.

“That would be fantastic, but Natasha,” he said People Magazine“How do we manage without Natasha?”

Richardson, the daughter of Vanessa Redgrave and Tony Richardson and wife of Liam Neeson, died in 2009 at the age of 45. She had been skiing in Montreal when she hit her head in a fall on a ski slope. She was flown to a New York hospital but died two days later of an epidural hematoma.

Quaid added that Richardson's death “still breaks his heart.”

In 2020, Lohan remembered Richardson as an actress with “such… elegance and grace, and she was so motherly to me.” A year later, she posted a tribute to the star on her 58th birthday, writing, “Happy birthday angel.”

Lohan has just finished filming another sequel to one of her earlier hits and can now be seen alongside Jamie Lee Curtis in a belated sequel to their 2003 comedy. A crazy Friday.

On her Instagram account this week, Curtis railed against paparazzi photographers who she said spoiled a crucial moment in the film.

Crazy Friday will be in cinemas next year.
