Description

With Mean Moms far out on the horizon (only Jennifer Aniston has been cast) and a Mean Girls reunion just a figment of Lindsay Lohan's imagination, our most solid prospect for a Plastics reboot looks like Mean Girls: The Musical. Tina Fey first mentioned that she and her husband, Jeff Richmond, were working on a musical version back in 2013—but updates since then have been nil. In a recent interview to Yahoo TV, though, Richmond gave an exciting status report on the project: "There's been quite a lot of progress on ithere's what I can tell you: Nell Benjamin of Legally Blonde fame, she's working with us as a lyricist. We've been working for a long time now. I'm going to say it's like 60 percent written, and it's being staffed creatively… We are looking to do some actual solid readings coming around this summer. The Kimmy Schmidt thing took a lot more time than we all thought, so it slowed some Mean Girls stuff down." We're still a good ways out from the Plastics hitting the stage, but Richmond gave us this teaser to hold us over: "There's a song called 'Old Blonde Song.' It's sung by Regina's mother."
