Waiting for Disney+ to come out with "Mean Girls: The Musical: The Movie: The Musical: The Series" where Olivia Rodrigo puts on a high school production of Mean Girls

lmfaoooo help

[@westleighbush3411]

With Sabrina Carpenter as her "queen bee" of the plastics

[@totoross8707]

I love this❤

[@jadereed5324]

​@@westleighbush3411 😮😮😮 then what to do with Joshua Bassett 😂

[@x_simsify_x6261]

@@jadereed5324he would ofc be aaron 😊

[@AudrieSaint]

Im really thrilled with Renee Rapp to come back! I truly think no one would play it better than her. Auli’i is a vocal beast and I have no doubt she’ll be fantastic! I don’t really know the rest of the people except for Jenna Fischer who I love! This is gonna be great!

[@ineffable.amethyst]

I honestly think on Renee Rapp or Mariah Rose Faith would have done it justice, I’m glad they were able to get one of them

[@maxpride5584]

I prefer Taylor Louderman as Regina, but Renne is definitely my second best

[@hayleyjames7197]

Hahaha legit only know/can visualize Tina Fey

[@themakaylamarie27]

Auli’l is definitely gonna kill as Janis. She kills the grungy rebel characters well

[@emalaw1329]

Really? I admit I've never explored her work beyond Moana, so I find it hard to picture the Princess of Motunui as a hardened 2000's gay-coded goth. What roles of her were similar to Janis?

[@julian2grande]

@@emalaw1329 her role in crush on hulu!

[@emalaw1329]

@@julian2grande ok yeah I can kinda see it. You take that character, darken the clothing/make up palette, crank up the snark meter, and you got yourself a pretty good musical Janis.

[@pathetically_dimwitted]

also she slayed as an edgy kinda character on Rise

[@viennas.]

i think sam should do a one-woman show of mean girls, it'd be VERY entertaining

[@liammcfarlane13]

It would be like Cher's one-woman West Side Story 😂

[@ilovequeenathena6956]

I second this

[@genericbee1902]

If they saw the Musical while Barrett Weed was playing Janis, I'm surprised Ryan didn't remember any of her songs

[@pili_chaves]

Jsjsjs true but " that's just the way of the world" xd

[@queerlyvictorian]

I mean all of the little lines he remembered were from Janis songs haha

[@pili_chaves]

@@queerlyvictorian Thiss 💙🖤

[@mimig7553]

It’s actually funny to hear how other people view Auli’i cause Janis is so in her wheelhouse, I’m excited to see it

[@solcarlosofficial]

When I heard auli cravahlo was Cast I thought she would play Gretchen. That’s so cool that she is playing Janice! I’m so excited to see her take on the role ✨🙌

[@elizaadams2992]

i can’t wait to see Reneé Rapp as Regina oh my god she’s so insanely talented!!🎉

[@if3359]

Cady's mom doesn't sing in the musical but Ms. Norbury does a little. (Kerry Butler was so under utilized in that musical...) I wonder if they're gonna cut Norbury's singing parts with Tina playing the role...

[@if3359]

@@alessia-adams she did, but very little

[@tylerj7298]

Fun fact: Renee Rapp is my best friend's cousin. I've met her and she is a sweet heart. Saw her perform live at 54 Below. She's amazing live.

[@shesalilsapphicokay]

Renee Rapp, heck yes! 😁 I still go back and watch that World Burn music video with her in from 3 years ago from time to time (and some sneaky bootlegs). Looking forward to seeing the rest of the cast too, I'm not familiar with them. Thanks for the vid, you guys are a vibe.

[@fashionablechangeling1988]

I love Angourie Rice, especially in Honor Society (If y'all haven't seen that, please check it out) so I'm so glad to see her get more leading roles

[@jakedylanhall]

Such a great movie!

[@arualstarr]

Okay, but Gretchen has a pretty epic solo, "What's Wrong With Me" so I'm looking forward to seeing how the little girl from The New Normal does with that. Also, Apex Predator is a gem from this musical. It's where Janis is warning Cady that Regina isnt just pretty, she's like a predator (this was how they referenced the mall wild animal scene from the movie). "Will she braid your hair? Will she eat your heart?"

[@hayley74936]

renee in everything, always plz

[@ava-cn6ct]

I’m so excited about Karen!! As an Indian musical theatre girl, seeing other strong Indian women in theater isn’t something you see everyday. I’m very excited for us Asians to be seen as a character outside of “the smart side character” as seen in other 2000’s teen classics

[@osnatashtaralevin8944]

They wrote in the article that id didn't make a lot of sense to replace the teachers as "they never really age out, they work forever" - which I think is meta hilarious. But that explains why Tina Fey is coming back and Amy Pohler is not.

[@louannecaron6510]

I'm so excited for this to come out. I haven't had the chance to see the musical yet either! Random thought, but I would love to see you guys reacting to The Guy Who Didn't like musicals, it's on KZbin and I'm kind of obsessed with it. One of the actresses/singers actually played Regina George on Broadway!

[@andrewlevin7586]

Seconded!!!!

[@shesalilsapphicokay]

100% a Sam/Ryan vid reaction to TGWDLM would be so fun 👌

[@tijanakovac7865]

Oh absolutely! Big starkid fan for like a decade 😍

[@angeliqueriou4067]

I thought Mariah played Regina on the tour. Nonetheless, she's incredibly talented.

[@louannecaron6510]

this film gives me hope for legally blonde the musical the movie

The only other casting announcement we’re waiting for; the kid who calls his mom and asks her to pick him up 😂😂

[@MountYourHorsesDrawYourSwords.]

I am so excited that they are making this a musical movie. Mean girls is one of my favorite musicals and movies of all time.

Omg two girls from. The sex life of college girls got casted! How cool is that! And that actress from love victor is so talented!

@@ella9120 omg I will bust down my door or something 😂

[@katyscott87]

[@apollokickz]

Auli'i actually played a kinda grungy character in Crush (2022), and she was great. it actually matches her personality irl

[@glossbones]

I love Jenna! Her singing was dubbed in Walk Hard. I've been listening to her audio book this week!

[@lauraelizabeth1117]

Ryan casually flipping Sam off and then apologizing to yootoob is my favorite part of this video 😂

[@kenadiepercival]

omg i love yalls videos, when i see a yootoob yootoob notification that says "Sam & Ryan" i get so excited! love you dads!

Reneé as Regina again? i'm so excited it's insane. the best casting

[@clairesnelson9961]

Excited for these picks! I can't wait to watch this!

[@kaeisokay]

i can’t wait for all the minor characters to be announced! hoping that some of the obc/tour cast will reprise their roles (ben cook as tyler kimble i’m looking at you 👀)

[@IAmNotNicolex]

I’ve been following Angourie (pronounced “An-gow-ree”) for a while and she’s posted some singing clips before. I think her voice is lovely and she has great Cady energy so I’m excited to see how she does! I can totally see it! I’m super excited to see Renee too, of COURSE.

[@neivilde.1242]

i have seen everyone's work on this list, and i am hyped, they are def perfect

YEAHHH SAM AND RYAN POSTTTT 😍😍🎉

[@erinm7645]

Definitely NOT how Auli'i is pronounced. Lol but I can't wait to see her Janice.

[@Alex_07402]

Best part of this casting is Renee as Regina. Yes. 🙌🏻

[@mae.audrey5423]

Side note, Sams makeup looks amazing today!!

[@mctheplaywright]

I’m confused by the reporting that Jaquel Spivey is reprising the role from the stage, A Strange Loop was his first professional gig. He is moving from Loop to the filming of this.

[@tylerj7298]

So when I first heard the music, I wasn't a fan either. But then after I saw it live and bought the sheet music, I started to fall in love with it.

[@ellie6475]

I absolutely love this cast! I think it’s phenomenal that it’s so diverse, that will make so many people so happy😁

[@jurassicccccc]

update: neither one of damien’s “showstoppers” are in the movie. missed opportunity if you ask me 😔

Jaquel was not in Mean Girls on Broadway, Strange Loop was his Broadway debut! But he will be amazing!

Janis is my favorite in the movie and Auli’i is one of my favorite actors ever so I’m very excited!!

[@thebigmatt13]

About the title argument in the first minute; I will be calling it Mean Girls: The Movie The Musical The Movie

[@jayjimenez5435]

Now they should split it into two movies. If Wicked is getting a Two-Movie Adaptation then in the interest of full equality for all Musicals-to-Movies Adaptations going forward, they should all be two movies. If it's good for one, it's good for all.

[@finnconnolly822]

Taylor Louderman I know your probably to old now but you must come back some time and do it you are so talented and I love you! Good luck with your little baby you deserve the best

[@allissaspeaks9110]

CHRIS?? As Aaron??? I’m shook

[@raindrops5619]

I need them to do this with heathers

[@bexyPTX]

I mean I'm optimistic about all the casting of this movie but I kinda wish they put Sabrina Carpenter in it - she was Cady on Broadway for a few days right before Covid hit and she would've absolutely killed the role in the movie. Oh well. I'm sure Angourie will do great too.

Can we talk about Tim Meadows Return to mean girls 2 as well

[@finland4ever55]

Surprised Gretchen isn't Asian in this version since the default in the musical is Korean. Not mad, especially considering she wasn't Korean in the original, but genuinely shocked

[@ily2saturn]

who sings or what sings or when sings or why sings

[@theavocadowhisperer46]

I think the cast is going to be amazing but I am worried because they said that the soundtrack will have a more "pop" sound and I really hate that. I feel like they are putting theatre kids who will be the ones to see the film second after non-theatre kids who will probably not go to the cinema and pay money to see the film. It just feels strange. :/

woo!🎉
