Lindsay Lohan has joined Amy Sedaris in a new ad for Reese’s Oreo.

Lohan and Sedaris both play twins in the commercial.

In The Parent Trap in 1998, Lohan scored her breakout performance as twins Annie and Hallie.

You’re not seeing double... it’s just Annie and Hallie, back on your screens nearly 30 years later. At least, that’s who it appears to be.

Millennial icon Lindsay Lohan has apparently reprised her roles from the 1998 version of The Parent Trap, in which she played twins, in a new commercial for a collaboration between Oreo and Reese’s Peanut Butter. These twins happen to really love mixing Oreos with peanut butter.

We say “apparently” because the character names are not explicitly stated and the project seemingly has nothing to do with the movie’s owners (hint: mouse is a mascot). But... context clues: It’s a camp run by twins who both look like the Irish Wish actress.

Oh, and Amy Sedaris is there, too, though that’s not a movie callback. It’s just fun!

In the ad, titled Two Fated Icons, Sedaris and her twin sister are attending a camp, the “Reese’s Twins Retreat,” run by Lohan and her twin sister (one’s a blonde, one’s a redhead).

“Welcome to my wellness retreat, where I help twins work out their differences,” the blonde Lohan begins the commercial, before adding directly to camera, “Because, well — I know a thing or two about twins.”

As she attempts to counsel the two Sedarises, they roast each other — one Amy says the other looks like “an eight-week-old jack-o’-lantern.” Each Amy is wearing a necklace with half of a cookie, one an Oreo, the other made of Reese’s.

Lohan tells them, “Sometimes our differences can come together in unexpected ways.” She then brings the magical necklaces together.

“Sure, Reese’s and Oreos may go perfectly together, but that doesn’t exist,” an Amy protests.

Later, the Amys fight over a jar of Reese’s peanut butter when they are interrupted by the redheaded Lohan, who smiles at a wink from blonde Lohan, “No relation.”

Finally, the problems find resolution when Lohan tells the Oreo and Reese’s-loving Amys that they can combine the two treats with her new Reese’s Oreo cups.

Of course, the Amys are delighted, but then the ad doles out one final twist... spoiler: They have a triplet.

“Wait, there are three of you!” an exasperated Lohan exclaims before fainting, a direct reference to when Elaine Hendrix’s Meredith Blake finds out Lohan’s Hallie has a twin sister in The Parent Trap.

The original Parent Trap came out in 1961 and starred Hayley Mills (as well as Hayley Mills). A huge hit and generational family favorite, Disney rebooted the movie with Lohan 37 years later, alongside Dennis Quaid, Natasha Richardson, and Lisa Ann Walter. It, too, became a generational favorite, cementing Lohan’s stardom.

Lohan recently reflected on her breakout performance, telling Parade, “It means so much. It was, you know, my first movie audition, my first film, and it holds such an important place in my heart. It’s just such a lovely family movie, and [director] Nancy Meyers has such a beautiful way of doing that in her films. And people just really connect to it. It’s so funny; still today, young kids now notice me from that, which is just wild that people still love it so much. And to be a part of something like that is really special.”

Last year, Lohan reprised a different Disney role — officially this time — with the release of Freakier Friday, in which she once again portrayed Anna opposite Jamie Lee Curtis’ Tess. Or was it her as Tess and Curtis as Anna? Hmmm.

The I Know Who Killed Me star marked her 40th birthday on July 2. In a celebratory post, she wrote in part, “Returning to Freakier Friday felt like a full-circle moment, a reminder of where I began and how much I’ve grown along the way. I’m no longer searching for who l am, I’m living it. Choosing family, choosing purpose, and creating a life that feels as good as it looks.”
