'Mean Girls' Cast on Recreating Iconic Lines | Around the Table | Entertainment Weekly
/ ew
reneé has never been serious ever in her life
But she cares
she’s usually soo silly, I’ve never seen her this serious hahahah
She’s only serious when she’s acting and even then…
But that’s what we love about her
She’s in her “cool girl” phase
“It’s hard to compliment a man” Reneé HAHA
I’m a man and since Renee says it I agree
It kinda is, but I think it’s because it has to be genuine. Women compliment one another so often that there are many times where it’s inauthentic. While doing it to a man, it has to come from the heart, since men don’t get them often and it’s just different vibes
@@growingupwithdisney Totally
@@growingupwithdisney hard disagree
@@2tr6dinquwjos how come
Reneé calling Tina mommy in conversation is everything to me
I love how Renee’s face lights up when the other cast members talk about their experiences
avantika’s face card NEVER declines
“You were being hit on queen” by reneé💀
I love Renee Rapp and angourie are so cute 💕💕💕💕❤😩
Did she say that to Angourie?
Reneé could legit be a comedian amongst all of her other talents
"... And Reneé Rapp is Reneé Rapp" i get that
Reneé is SO FUNNY- so glad she’s Regina in this, love her!!
Renee is the PERFECT modern day Regina George. Perfectly cast yet again Ms Fey
I worked on the movie and it was the best crew experience of my career. All genuinely wonderful humans and I am so lucky to have been a part of it.
What role?
Ooh! How would I, a noob, get to where you are as someone who works on set?
37:33 the way avantika looks at bebe the entire time jaquel talks about her :((
22:14 lmao love them
renee: she was hitting on her-
ang: i felt that [staring]
renee: yeah.
ang: you're special
renee: no kween you were hit on
ang: yeah, i felt it [staring]
renee: absolutely. [looking down]
ang: [laughs]
renee: any other hum.. thoughts?
ang: do u have any fav line chris? ...........
I love Renee Rapp and angourie are so cute❤❤💕💕😩
I ship them so hard ngl
I love how Chris is just there LOL
I love how Tina is laying low and allowing the new cast share the spotlight. The generosity and genius ❤
Yes I thought that was perfect, her excuse of “sorry guys I have to head to the airport.” Brilliant! 17:51
@@thisismyusername4569no it was real not an excuse lmao
@@emmeline8048 ohh lol I misunderstood haha
Avantika and Bebe PLEASE be friends forever!!! You are so lovely together!
37:50 The way Avantika looks at Bebe just melts my heart.
Reneé is literally everything to me
Literally
I love that Renee helped Angourie with her singing.
this should be renamed to renee flirting with angourie rice for 40 minutes straight
21:47 renee talks about regina canonically hitting on cady
I love Auli'i, man, and I am so excited to watch her in this film! She's the whole reason I even knew it was going to be a thing!
Not reneé quoting coco jones😂 she’s so unserious
This roundtable is SO funny and their energy is so genuine and I just want to be friends with them
Love the cast and their attentiveness to one another and tina talking on production technically speaking
Ive never heard about Avantika before, but she is sooooooo cute. Can't wait to see her in the movie the musical movie :)
She was in a Disney film called 'Spin.' It was a really heart-warming film too, I recommend!
I had no notes for her! SO funny.
This interview just made me realise how much we Gen Z use the word "LIKE" in every sentence lmao
When did it start? I'm Gen X, and I remember teachers telling me and my friends to stop saying "like" every few words 😄
correction... Gen z's and late millenials mostly used that
You can tell that they're pretty much a family Im so excited to see it in theaters on January 12th! you can tell they're not changing the story line they are keeping it the same but adding pop music. Its a musical and I love how each and everyone is doing their homework and reasarch to study the characters they are playing and Tina Feye is all into it!!!
24:26 the reprise was my FAVORITE part for Auli’i she did sooo good
i already repeat the Mean Girls Movie all least 70x times in my life, and i remember all the scene and the dialogue
Jaquel just has the best voice ever
songs we know are there bc of this interview
1. cautionary tale
2. meet the plastics
3. someone gets hurt
4. sexy
5. revenge party
6. someone gets hurt (reprise)
7. I see stars
8. what's wrong with me
9. world burn
10. I'd rather be me
What are the final two do we hope/think are still there?
I feel like Stupid With Love almost certainly will still be there, if they're sticking with the musical tradition of processing big emotions through song. Plus it's one of the more well-known ones from the musical.
That would make Stupid With Love (Reprise) a little more likely, but tbh i think that one could potentially be done away with.
Meet The Plastics follows directly on from Where Do You Belong, so that one might be one of them. But they might also have tweaked Meet The Plastics to stand on its own. So we'll call that one a maybe.
I like It Roars, Whose House, and Do This Thing, but I feel like they're not likely.
Fearless is a decently likely candidate, I think, although it's not particularly iconic, so they also could have written a new song to take it's place.
Apex Predator is highly likely, i think.
TLDR; Stupid With Love and Apex Predator are highly likely. The remaining spot will probably be either Stupid With Love (Reprise), Where Do You Belong, or Fearless. Those are my guesses, anyway
Edit: after re-watching the trailers, it looks like It Roars might have made it. Or some similar number, at least. They did mention singing a song that Renee had a hand in writing, so there's almost certainly going to be at least one original number in there.
Edit part 2: I didn't even realise I'd Rather Be Me wasn't originally on your list. In that case I think it'll be either Stupid With Love or Apex Predator and an original number, or two original numbers
I think I’d rather be me is in it too! I think auli’i said it in another interview ( don’t take my word for it tho😭 )
I really hope Stop and Where Do You Belong Is in it
Looooved the choices!! But I'm living for where do you belong, it roars, and apex pedrator
personally, I feel like i want whose house is this. I know this song is not that popular, but I feel like they could do an amazing job with the movie version
This cast loves each other so much, and I love to see it ❤
I love how it’s the GIRLYS sitting at a table then it’s ✨Chris ✨
auli'i your crush on renee is showing
It's crazy how we were all watching mean girls at like 4-6 and we probably shouldn't have been watching it that young.
Avantika is a Disney girl! Thats why they mention High School Musical and why Olivia Rodrigo is part of the soundtrack en the trailer
I love knowing that Jaquel’s meditation lyric was probably “my heart is dying to leave” has me giggling
I love Bebe as Gretchen so much !!!! She’s my fav !!
I love hearing Bebe in interviews, she sounds like a 1960s Beat poet, all intellectual and arty
Pleasantly surprised to hear Cautionary Tale made it, given how short the tracklist is.
Ikr but sadly they won’t be having time long for making 21 songs instead of that they’re making 12 songs literally that’s it for the whole movie adaptation musical.
@@T1K2TBit makes sense, movie musicals usually only have around 10 songs
reneé and auli’i have my heart and always will, love themmm ❤❤
Tina fey looks so good! Shes barely aged at all. Very excited to see this!🤩
I need more of these long full cast interviews!
Tina, the school where you taped was very much a COED school. I went there, both my kids went there. My daughter taught there and it was a very sad day when the school closed. (However there is an all boys' hs eight miles away!) I love watching the trailers and seeing the exteriors and hallways where I spent four years. Oh, a bunch of the local gals are planning to go to opening night of the movie this Friday night--hoping to spot themselves! Ps. Renee, one of my own students is a huge fan and had the exciting experience of seeing you in concert recently (she showed me video she took.)
24:35 IS MY FAVORITE PART HELP 😭😭
26:45 JAQUEL SO WELL SPOKEN 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
i would just like to say i’ve been a reneé fan before mean girls 🤗💗
28:34 renee is so real
I love this cast sm!! Was not planning on watching the movie in the cinema, but now I have to!! These people are amazing
Take a shot every time “like” was said… I’m at the hospital with alcohol poisoning 😂
every time I hear them go "04" I age like 2 years
THIS MOVIE WAS SO MUCH FUN!!! Loved this sit down chat with the cast - can’t wait to watch the movie again!!
38:21 OMG I DIDNT THINK THIS WOULD GET ME EMOTIONAL 🥹🥹😭
Them all being surprised by Renee’s picture like they ain’t talk about it every interview now.
Are none of us gonna talk about how the photo is obviously of an ad playing during a commercial break of what movies will be aired later and not the actual movie playing
33:30 the way angourie looked at reneé i want what they have
Regina is perfectly cast! Gees, she’s so air headed- love her!
Bebe is so lovely and everyone is so fun
Automatically must watch any and every version that ever gets made of Mean Girls and Carrie.
christopher being obsessed with the cup ?!?!?!
Renee quoting Coco Jones 😂
Scrolled to find this comment 😂 nobody at the table caught it lmao
"no queen you were hit on"
amazing
Renee with The Coco Jones quote "and you would do it too for a check"😭
Everything that mommy wrote I’m dead
36:28 Auli’i looking her up and down 👀👀
32:24 lmfao renee and angourie
At the beginning, Tina's expression when the cast talks about how important the OG's movie 🥹 she's such a brilliant writer, her and her works deserve to be complimented all the time
I forgot about the shoe, that was hilarious
I love Reneé sm 😂❤
im praying damian sings cant take that away at the talent show as a nod to the poster in his room in 04
I thought when Chris sang I’m season 2 of the summer I turned pretty was really good x
Avantika: Like. You know, like. Like. Like yah. Like. It’s like… like… like. Lol
Actually, everyone
they are just so nice
"Okay, so we ran out of normal clothes. You gals on the end will have to pick from the Limited Too rack."
This is so good
If I hear anyone be mean to Angourie again it’s on sight!
Bebe is so iconic
The only remake I’m hype for
All are so cute
Renee sounds so much like Billie Eilish in this
Someone gets hurt reprise is soooo good
Also I love Renee ,it’s official
i absolutely loved this movie, love the cast as well!!!!
I'm so shipping Auli'i and Renee and no one can stop me
gosh i love reneé
30:21 LMAO I LOVE REVENGE PARTY AND I SEE STARS
Makes me feel old to say I was 12 when OG movie came out
so excited for this 💓
Chris❤
4:30 I love this cast
Bebe is so beautiful and smart, she should be more confident !!!
So fetch just sad they cut so many songs
this cast genuinely seems so wonderful I wish they'd been given better material to work with
avantika is coming for young hollywood i can just feel it
Did you see her in Tarot. She most def is
@@ThudnerFam7 her performance was PHENOMENAL hunni
somebody should count how many times they all say "like
"
bro omg I wish I was part of this cast 🥲🫶🏽
Tina...please give us another GenX comedy along the lines of Wine Trip!
Wine Trip, the musical?
nobody can be meaner than miss vanjie 💋
They who laughs last, laughs laughiest….. I think.
I will go down with this movie and cast idgaf
