Paramount Pictures Debuts “Mean Girls” Trailer Featuring a New Twist on the Modern Classic From Tina Fey

Paramount Pictures on Wednesday released the official trailer for the upcoming film adaptation of the musical adaptation of the 2004 hit movie Mean Girls. Mean Girls features an all-star cast, with returning favorites Tina Fey and Tim Meadows, both of whom are reprising their roles as Ms. Norbury and Principal Duvall, respectively.

The Mean Girls trailer has already been showing in theaters for a few weeks now, most notably before Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, and this is the first time it’s been made available officially online.

From the comedic mind of Tina Fey comes a new twist on the modern classic, Mean Girls. New student Cady Heron (Angourie Rice) is welcomed into the top of the social food chain by the elite group of popular girls called “The Plastics,” ruled by the conniving queen bee Regina George (Reneé Rapp) and her minions Gretchen (Bebe Wood) and Karen (Avantika).

However, when Cady makes the major misstep of falling for Regina’s ex-boyfriend Aaron Samuels (Christopher Briney), she finds herself prey in Regina’s crosshairs. As Cady sets to take down the group’s apex predator with the help of her outcast friends Janis (Auli’i Cravalho) and Damian (Jaquel Spivey), she must learn how to stay true to herself while navigating the most cutthroat jungle of all: high school.

Mean Girls hits theaters January 12, 2024.
