The Mean Girls the Musical movie is officially a go — and creator Tina Fey is ready to bring even more pink to the big screen.
“I’m very excited to bring Mean Girls back to the big screen,” Fey said in a statement to Playbill in January 2020. “It’s been incredibly gratifying to see how much the movie and the musical have meant to audiences.”
Fey wrote the 2004 film Mean Girls, which starred Lindsay Lohan (Cady Heron), Rachel McAdams (Regina George), Amanda Seyfried (Karen Smith) and Lacey Chabert (Gretchen Wieners). The Saturday Night Live alum, for her part, played teacher Ms. Norbury in the comedy alongside longtime friend Amy Poehler as Mrs. George, Jonathan Bennett as Aaron Samuels, Lizzy Caplan as Janice Ian and Daniel Franzese as Damian.
Fey brought the hit film to Broadway in 2018 and is taking the musical production back to the movies with an all new film — and a few familiar faces. Reneé Rapp will be playing queen B, Regina George, in the upcoming film after previously playing the role on Broadway.
“We have an amazing cast,” Fey said during a February 2023 appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers. “I’m super excited about the cast.”
