Rachel McAdams clearly doesn't want to be involved in anything Mean Girls-related which explains why she wasn't even at the premiere of the new movie (at least thaf I'm aware of). omg y'all really need to quit this narrative Rachel loves the character and always shows appreciation towards Mean Girls, she's literally been involved in every other major reunion except the commercial? (not to mention there's ways to do it without her, Tina is the only one who can pull the trigger) if Tina wrote a sequel and really wanted them all to return, I'm very positive she'd do it. 1
Hobbes Posted January 11 Posted January 11 38 minutes ago, Dante Silva said: There are other films out there such as “Drop Dead Gorgeous”, “Heathers” and “Muriel’s Wedding”, that offer much the same experience as the original “Mean Girls”. So I don’t necessarily think it needs a direct sequel. Muriel’s Wedding is such a sad film. I still tear up when he gets dumped by her friends. 2
RihLorde Posted January 11 Posted January 11 What we really need from her is another season of 30 Rock! 2 1
UnusualBoy Posted January 11 Posted January 11 A sequel would never live up to its hype so they should leave the OG one as it is.
orange22 Posted January 11 Posted January 11 11 hours ago, Exodus said: The sequel would be so easy to write (and even using Rachel McAdam's disappearance in the WalMart ads): In the time since the first movie, Regina moves away for some high powered job but ends up being reduced to an unhappy, unemployed housewife. After a divorce (from Shane Oman!), she gets a job opportunity from now Principal Norbury to move home and teach at her former high school. She moves back in with her mom and on the first day of school, finds the power dynamic has shifted. Guidance Counselor Cady Heron, PTA President Gretchen Weiners and Weather Forecaster Karen Smith (and their children) run the school. Regina and her timid, mousey daughter must figure out a way to survive high school in the 2020's with an old group of frenemies who are threatened by her return. Parallel but inverse to the first movie, Regina teams up with art teacher Janis Ian and theater teacher Damien to try and balance the power. Whenever they write this script, they need to be very careful to keep the children secondary characters to preserve the storylines of the Core Four. Tap Ariana Grande for the single from the soundtrack and plug in Mariah Carey for a cameo (since she loves MG so much). AND to bring in the numbers and fan-service The Notebook, they should bring a currently red-hot Ryan Gosling to be her new love interest as the gym teacher or something. Tina Fey can pay me later for this. Delete this and get a pitch deck together 1

BoDaToe Posted January 11 Posted January 11 Girl come to my small hometown and see how mean the 30-40 something moms are. That would actually be a perfect sequel. 1
DamianSolo Posted January 11 Posted January 11 I think a spiritual sequel would be really awesome, especially if it's a love letter to the millennial experience of adulthood—without it being stupidly exaggerated. There's potential for a great project there; it would have to be with the original cast for it to mean anything, however. 1
DONTYELLATME Posted January 11 Posted January 11 (edited) A sequel could definitely touch upon the bubble of middle class white suburbia like cmon Tina, she’s already done this with Jane krawkoski in multiple roles. she’s probably too afraid of making a subpar sequel which is totally valid.

XtinaStripped Posted January 21 Posted January 21 I mean.. "Mean Moms" is waiting to be made. They could have kids in the complete opposite cliques to what their characters were in the OG. 1
