Long-awaited Millennial Desire: ‘Mean Girls’ Sequel Stalled By Contract Dispute

As everyone celebrates “Meaning Girls Day,” it’s worth noting that we may have had the second part of the movie years ago. Why didn’t that happen? Allegedly, talks hit a snag when Paramount Pictures extended what it deemed an “indecent” financial offer to the OG actor.
Over the years, every significant original cast member has seemingly voiced their desire for a sequel. Unfortunately, the company’s lackluster offering has put a damper on those plans.
A source told Page Six, “Paramount Pictures didn’t want to pay the girls what they were worth. All four girls were ready to come back, but Paramount didn’t respect their values.”
In case you need to know who the OG cast was, the team consisted of teen royalty at the time: Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Lacey Chabert, and Amanda Seyfried along with Tina Fey, Lizzy Caplan, Tim Meadows, and Amy Poehler.
According to the source, despite the stalled negotiations, McAdams was offered a bigger role than the other three, but the deal has yet to be finalized.
Fey, who is at the helm as writer for both the film and the musical, is slated to return as Ms. Norbury reportedly earned a seven-figure deal covering her role, writing and producing the film.
