Well now, a new version of the film<\/a> is coming to cinemas complete with songs and routines that are a major marker away from the musical-less nature of the original.<\/p>\n Once more, original screenwriter Tina Fey has penned the scripts but not only that, Fey also returns as the school\u2019s maths teacher Ms Norbury, the same role we saw her as in the 2004 film with Lindsay Lohan<\/a> and Rachel McAdams.<\/p>\n So, with Fey returning as well as Tim Meadows as the school\u2019s principal (and Norbury\u2019s new husband), are we to believe that the films are in the same universe?<\/p>\n Well, Fey told Entertainment Weekly<\/a>:\u00a0\u201cI wouldn\u2019t look at it with a microscope. It doesn\u2019t entirely make sense, but it\u2019s a multiverse. That\u2019s what it is. Yeah, it\u2019s a Spider-Man. I don\u2019t really know those movies, so I don\u2019t know if what I\u2019m saying applies.\u201d<\/p>\n Speaking about the decision to reprise her role from the 2004 film, Fey said: \u201cParamount was like, \u2018We would like you to [play Ms. Norbury],\u2019 and I could get my head around doing it if Tim [Meadows] would do it too.<\/p>\n \u201cBecause my best friend\u2019s a teacher and teachers are there a long time. So I could get my head around the idea that we would still be there without breaking the universe and that we\u2019d see these same patterns happening in front of us\u2026and not look too closely at the fact that the kids have the same names.\u201d<\/p> Although Lohan doesn\u2019t have a main role in the new film, there is a major nod to the original as Lohan does make a surprise appearance towards the end of the film.<\/p>\n The new film sees a brand new cast of actors taking on the iconic roles with Mare of Easttown<\/a>\u2018s Angourie Rice and The Sex Lives of College Girls actress Rene\u00e9 Rapp taking on the roles of Cady Heron and Regina George.<\/p>\n Read more:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n According to the film\u2019s synopsis: \u201cNew student Cady Heron 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 and her minions Gretchen and Karen.<\/p>\n \u201cHowever, when Cady makes the major misstep of falling for Regina\u2019s ex-boyfriend Aaron Samuels, she finds herself prey in Regina\u2019s crosshairs. As Cady sets to take down the group\u2019s apex predator with the help of her outcast friends Janis and Damian she must learn how to stay true to herself while navigating the most cutthroat jungle of all: high school.\u201d<\/p> ![\"Jaquel](\"https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2024\/01\/MGJW041020884R7-f520b81.jpg?quality=90&resize=620%2C413\" "\\"Jaquel")
