Based on the Broadway musical inspired by Mark Waters’ iconic teen comedy, the new version puts a modern twist on a story we all know and love. The new student Cady Heron (Angourie Rice) must survive the cutthroat world of her new high school after being welcomed into the top of the social food chain by the elite group of popular girls known as “The Plastics”.

Rice will be joined by Reneé Rapp as Regina George, Bebe Wood as Gretchen, Avantika as Karen, Christopher Briney as Aaron Samuels, Auli’i Cravalho as Janis, and Jaquel Spivey as Damian. Screenwriter Tina Fey and Tim Meadows are the only members of the original cast to return, with Jenna Fischer, Busy Philipps, Jon Hamm, and Ashley Park joining them in supporting roles.

Mean Girls: The Musical was initially only set for a streaming release on Paramount+, but the studio later decided to release it theatrically. The film will hit the theatres on January 12 and is currently projected to gross $27–30 million during its opening weekend.

The new trailer is set to the beat of Olivia Rodrigo’s “Get Him Back!”, so it doesn’t paint a true picture of the remake, but you should expect a lot of amazing musical numbers once it comes out. This isn’t a direct remake, but an adaptation of the Broadway musical inspired by the original Mean Girls movie, which received 12 Tony nods during its original run.

Just like the original film, this new version of Mean Girls will center on Cady Heron, a new student trying to navigate the cutthroat world of high school, ruled by the elite group of popular girls known as “The Plastics” and their fearless leader Regina George.

The cast of the new remake includes Angourie Rice as Cady, Reneé Rapp as Regina, Bebe Wood as Gretchen, Avantika Vandanapu as Karen, Christopher Briney as Aaron, Auliʻi Cravalho as Janis, and Jaquel Spivey as Damian. Original Mean Girls cast members Tina Fey and Tim Meadows also star alongside Jenna Fischer, Busy Philipps, Ashley Park, and Jon Hamm.

Mean Girls was initially only intended for streaming release, but Paramount Pictures eventually decided to release it in theatres on January 12, 2024.

The 2004 film marked Tina Fey’s screenwriting debut and immediately became a cult classic. Now, Mean Girls has found second life as a musical, premiering in Washington D.C. this October 31 for a try-out run before coming to Broadway.

Fey began working on the musical adaptation 5 years ago with composer husband, Jeff Richmond. It was actually Richmond who suggested that Mean Girls could really work as a musical. Fey put her trust in him and began adapting her script for the stage.

Taking Lindsay Lohan’s role Cady Heron as the naïve homeschooler turned plastic is Erika Henningsen. Barrett Wilbert Weed and Grey Henson will play Cady’s friendly guides, Janis and Damian. The Mean Girls themselves are a trio of Broadway veterans: Taylor Louderman playing Regina George, Kate Rockwell as Karen Smith, and Ashley Park as Gretchen Wieners.

Fey spoke of the musical’s casting saying “[i]t’s similar to the experience I had with the movie, where you watch someone like Rachel McAdams and you think, ‘Oh, she made this. She’s such a great talent that she’s actually making this more than is on the page’. When you have great actors, like we do now with these young women, they bring more to it than you even imagined.”

In the writing process, Fey revisited the source material she used for the movie: Rosalind Wiseman’s Queen Bees & Wannabes, a self-help book for worried parents and their teenage daughters.

“I tried to remember to stay at the core humanity of it, which is the behavior that comes out of all of us sometimes out of jealousy or fear,” Fey explained. “The great thing about music is it lets you get in people’s heads and inside their emotional lives in a way that you can do with a tight close-up in movies… I think fans will hopefully find that this has the DNA of the movie and is true to the spirit of it, but is also opened up in a lot of ways.”
