The Mean Girls reboot is hard to miss : Almost 20 years after the release of the original film (Moi despite Lolita in French), a brand new version of the feature film has been hitting theaters since last week. Signed by Arturo Perez Jr. and Samantha Jay, the reboot is none other than an adaptation of the musical produced on Broadway in 2018, and yes, it uses the original synopsis: lThere we find a young Caddy who, back on American soil, discovers the joys of high school. There she meets Plastic, a group of girls who, unfortunately, are not known for their kindness.
Casting Side, Angourie Rice, Renee Rapp and Christopher Briney. But, did you know we almost got Harry Styles? In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Jane says: “Some comedies that were funny 20 years ago aren’t funny today. We all knew that. But there are some iconic lines that we joke about that would cause riots in the streets if they weren’t in them. Like “There you go, Glenn Coco. “: Give the people what they want. Give me what I want! But when we asked ourselves who Glenn Coco was, we told ourselves no problem.”
But, she continues? “Who could it be?” I remember we said to each other: ” One might ask, like Harry Styles?. We thought Harry Styles might be Glenn Coco! Then we said, wait, we love breaking the fourth wall: What if we were all Glenn Cocoa? So 20 years from now we can all feel like Glenn Coco.
Of course, the caption doesn’t say whether or not Harry Styles was approached to appear in the film!
The reboot is still available in theaters and, in France, Elizée herself came to celebrate its release!
