Tyra Banks on what we can expect in 'Life Size 2'
18 years later, fans of "Life Size" are finally getting a sequel!

Banks said franchise could potentially live on after this film.
\"I think definitely there will probably be a future of 'Life Size,'\" she told ET. \"Whether I’m in it or not, I don’t know. But I do feel that the franchise is definitely massive and we shall see if I’m part of that.\"
Banks' 2-year-old son, York, actually helped her get into character.
\"It was cool because I’m emulating my son this time because he’s so innocent, so I used a lot of my son — his facial expressions. My son is just so expressive, as kids are, so there’s a lot of him in that,\" she said.
So sweet! @tyrabanks says stepping back into the character Eve 18 years later for #LifeSize2 was so much fun because her son inspired her character's innocence. pic.twitter.com/ELAeWFqq9D

The model also said her son is a big fan of what he’s seen so far of the film.
\"He’ll see, like, scenes on my phone and I’ll have to kinda look at stuff and make notes and he is transfixed by that when he sees me doing that,\" Banks told \"ET.\"
\"There’s something about the movie where he just, like, gets lost,\" Banks continued. \"And he’s seen me on TV and stuff before and he’s not that impressed. But with this he’s just like, 'Ahhhh, Mommy!' He likes it.\"
In \"Life Size 2,” Banks will sing as her Eve character — and rap!
The actor gave us a sneak peak on \"GMA.\"

\"Grace is a hot mess!\" Banks said of Raisa's character. \"I was very inspired by the movie 'Train Wreck' by Amy Schumer. She’s just a mess!\"

Although Lohan doesn’t star in the film, Banks teased an appearance.
\"There is some Lindsay going on in here. Yes, for the people that are as obsessed with Lindsay Lohan as I am,\" she said.

Banks added, \"I feel like she’s a part of this, even though she couldn’t do this sequel, so we made sure that there’s moments in there that you’ll see a little something.\"
