Before everyone goes crazy about Regina being “recast”, this is an adaptation of the ‘Mean Girls’ stage musical where Regina was portrayed by Reneé Rapp, who reprises the role here.

    I just saw this on IMDB and was like “great…how are the re-imagining it now?” but nope, it doesn’t even look like a re-imagining of it, they just taking the original story and using new actors for 99% of the cast. I think the only two original actors left are Tim and Tina.

    This is going to be terrible, but it’s going to get rave review no doubt, just like the stupid Charmed remake, which is somehow still on AFAIK.

      After watching this trailer I’m so confused.

      The reimagining is that it’s a musical. A film adaptation of a successful Broadway show.

      What I just saw is a trailer for a generic teen comedy.

      Did they fuck up and forget to put music in a musical?

        Either way, taking a movie and then making it a Broadway musical and then making that musical into a movie, just sounds like a bad game of “telephone”.
