Mean Girls remains one of the most iconic teen movies, and that’s partly down to its perfect cast. Can you even imagine what it would have been like if the lineup of talent had been different?

Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfied and Lacey Chabert grounded the cast as the members of The Plastics – teen royalty of North Shore High School.

They were joined in the movie by other talented young actors such as Jonathan Bennett, Daniel Franzese and Lizzy Caplan alongside comedy legends Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.

In 2023, the cast is forever associated with the characters that they played in the movie. However, Mean Girls almost looked very different.

For starters, the three of The Plastics auditioned for other parts in the movie before they were finally cast. Several other actresses were also in the running for parts, and an A-list actor up to play Jonathan‘s character Aaron Samuels.

There was also a rumor linking a Marvel superstar to the movie, that we finally got an answer to years later.

After most of the cast got back together to film a commercial for Walmart, we did some digging to see what the cast might have looked like.

The new Mean Girls movie is just one month away from hitting theaters and the cast just gathered for their first major event!

Tina Fey joined Renee Rapp, Angourie Rice, and the rest of the young cast for a photo call on Monday afternoon (December 4) at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Also in attendance were Auli’i Cravalho, Jaquel Spivey, Avantika, Bebe Wood, and Christopher Briney.

Here’s the synopsis for the upcoming movie, based on the Broadway musical: “New student Cady Heron (Rice) is welcomed into the top of the social food chain by the elite group of popular girls called “The Plastics,” ruled by the conniving queen bee Regina George (Rapp) and her minions Gretchen (Wood) and Karen (Avantika). However, when Cady makes the major misstep of falling for Regina’s ex-boyfriend Aaron Samuels (Briney), she finds herself prey in Regina’s crosshairs. As Cady sets to take down the group’s apex predator with the help of her outcast friends Janis (Cravalho) and Damian (Spivey), she must learn how to stay true to herself while navigating the most cutthroat jungle of all: high school.”

Tina, who wrote the movie, is reprising her role as Ms. Norbury. The film will hit theaters on January 12 and we have the latest trailer, which wasn’t that well-received by fans.

Fans who have been looking forward to the Mean Girls movie musical are not happy with the trailer released by Paramount Pictures.

The 2024 remake of Mean Girls is based on the recent Broadway musical and features the music that fans fell in love with from the stage show… but you wouldn’t know that from the trailer.

While the teaser trailer did have Renee Rapp singing Regina George’s famous intro line, the official trailer features no music from the musical and instead features Olivia Rodrigo‘s “Get Him Back.”

The trailer even teases that the remake is a “new twist from Tina Fey,” except they don’t reveal that the twist is the movie is a musical.

So, what are fans saying?
