Mean Girls trailer out: Regina George and The Plastics return with new twists

The highly-anticipated Mean Girls trailer brings back The Plastics and the Burn Book but with a brand new twist. On Wednesday, November 8, Paramount Pictures dropped the first look into their new Mean Girls story reintroducing Regina George, the undisputed leader and Queen Bee of the mean trio famously labeled The Plastics in school. The upcoming film is an adaptation of the 2018 Broadway musical based originally on Tina Fey’s 2004 teen comedy. Actress and singer Renee Rapp reprises her role as Regina George from the Broadway show, while Angourie Rice plays the new student Cady Heron this time.
The trailer begins with a fierce disclaimer, “This isn’t your mother’s ‘Mean Girls,'” as Cady manoeuvres through the halls and classrooms of her high school steering clear of the infamous cliquey group of girls. But things take a sudden turn when Cady falls for Aaron Samuels, played by Christopher Briney of The Summer I Turned Pretty fame. Aaron happens to be Queen Bee Regina’s ex-boyfriend and his equation with Cady seems awkward, fresh, and heart-fluttering all at the same time. Cady attempts to get along with the cliques of her new school but to no avail.
A hilarious scene of her eating lunch alone in the bathroom shows her desperate attempt to get away from the high school drama. “We’re concerned you’re either doing drugs or having a toilet baby,” says Damian (Played by Jaquel Spivey), who is an outcast like Janis (Played by Auli’i Carvalho). Cady, Damian, and Janis soon become friends. The trio is developing plans to help Cady become a member of The Plastics, which includes an insecure Gretchen (Played by Bebe Wood) and sweet yet dimwitted Karen (Played by Avantika Vandanapu).
With Olivia Rodrigo’s Get Him Back playing in the background, one of the highlights became the iconic Halloween scene from the original film. Cady’s scary look frightens The Plastics, who begin to school her about sluttish Halloween looks. Cady’s plan was first to become a member of the Plastics but towards the end, she is seen taking desperate measures to take Regina down. The trailer takes viewers on a rollercoaster ride of laughter with hilarious scenes of cliche high school kisses and sex education sessions preaching about abstinence and protection. In brevity, the new Mean Girls aptly retains the essence of its original version by introducing a new generation almost 20 years after the movie hit the theaters. The Paramount Pictures’ revised tale is scheduled to be released in January 2024. Source: News18

  1. Excellent read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on that. And he actually bought me lunch since I found it for him smile Thus let me rephrase that: Thanks for lunch! “Bill Dickey is learning me his experience.” by Lawrence Peter Berra.

  2. That is the appropriate weblog for anyone who desires to search out out about this topic. You realize a lot its nearly laborious to argue with you (not that I truly would need…HaHa). You positively put a new spin on a subject thats been written about for years. Nice stuff, simply nice!

  3. Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Safari. I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the problem solved soon. Cheers
