JAKARTA - Mean Girls, one of the teen films that became a popular cultural phenomenon, is back in the latest version. A musical film of the same name was produced by Paramount Pictures released its first trailer on Wednesday, November 8.

This trailer features several iconic scenes starting from Cady Heron who moved to a new school, meeting Janis and Damian. They introduced Heron to Regina George, the iconic character who became the queen at the school.

Cady Heron (Angourie Rice) is a new student at school and is friends with Janis (Aulii Cravalho) and Damian (Jaquel Spivey). Janis and Damian warned Heron not to get involved or be in touch with Regina George, played by Reneé Rapp.

Regina George has a gang called The Plastics. The problem started when Cady Heron liked Regina's lover, Aaron Samuels (Christopher Briney). Slowly, Heron started dealing with Regina George.

Broadly speaking, the story is not much different from the original version. But what's new about this film is the musical side that attracts attention. Some iconic scenes also come with something refreshing.

From the latest version, only Tina Fey and Tina Meadows have returned to play their previous characters. Tina Fey even produced and wrote her latest film.

In addition, this film also stars Jenna Fischer, Busy Philipps, Avantika, Mahhi Alam, Bebe Wood, Ashley Park,ctional Ratliff and Jon Hamm. Chris Olsen also appears as a cameo in the trailer accompanied by Olivia Rodrigo's get him back song.

The musical Mean Girls film was originally planned for release on Paramount+ before the production house changed its theatrical release on January 12, 2024.
