Now that America's Next Top Model Cycle whatever, er, 19 is all said and done, Tyra Banks needs a new way to shine bright, shine far...

Yup, the model-turned-actress-gone-show-producer is going be a star, once again. Life-Size, the incredible so-bad-it's-good hit Disney Channel movie from 2000, is getting a sequel!

According to a report in Variety, Banks is reprising her role as Eve, the frizzy-haired off-brand Barbie doll that magically comes to life after (here's the best part) a football-playing tomboy Lindsay Lohan performs an unsuccessful voodoo spell.

But wait, there's more—Banks will also act as executive producer for the movie! No word yet has surfaced on whether La Lohan is going to nab her old part as Casey, but based on the reviews (aka tweet slams) from her most recent TV movie... Yeah, moving on.

And just in case you have never actually watched the epicness that is Life-Size, here's a clip of Banks and LiLo singing and dancing to the best song ever "Be A Star."

Happy Monday!

Okay, how excited are you guys for this sequel to come out? Between this and Zoolander 2 we're pretty much beside ourselves with giddiness! Feel free to freak out with us in the comments, below. (But really, please do!)
