For the first time since the 1998 movie, the cast of ‘The Parent Trap’ reunited on Katie Couric’s Instagram to spill secrets, share all the mems and raise funds for World Central Kitchen.

Director Nancy Myers shared how tricky it was to film scenes featuring Lindsey Lohan playing both twins, reminisced on the late Natasha Richardson, and celebrated the ongoing legacy of the iconic film.

Sharing the screen with Lindsay Lohan, Dennis Quaid, Elaine Hendrix, Lisa Ann Walter, Simon Kuntz, Katie Couric, and producer Charles Shyer, the cast and team honored the film’s 22nd anniversary, sharing some of their favorite memories including Lohan’s elaborate handshake and even re-enacted one of the scenes.

The reunion was organized to support Chef Jose Andres’ charity World Central Kitchen, which provides fresh and healthy meals to underprivileged communities, as Couric shared in her Instagram post:
