The trailer for the upcoming 2024 movie adaptation of Mean Girls the musical written by Jeff Richmond, Nell Benjamin and Tina Fey, which was an adaptation of the 2004 Mean Girls movie written by Tina Fey, which was an adaptation of the 2002 book Queen Bees and Wannabes by Rosalind Wiseman, has been released.
And there’s nothing at all in the trailer which tells audiences that they’ll be seeing a musical instead of a straight remake of the movie. This trailer is even more ashamed of its movie’s musicalness than the Sweeney Todd trailer from 2007, which at least featured Johnny Depp warbling a few lines of “Epiphany” in the middle.
Seems like I wasn’t alone in my reaction: https://amp.abc.net.au/article/103083278
