“Paramount Pictures doesn’t want to pay the girls what they are worth,” they said. “All four girls were willing to come back, but Paramount has not been respectful of what they are worth.”
Tina Fey, who wrote the adaptation of Mean Girls, is also in talks to reprise her role and was allegedly offered a seven-figure deal for her role as actress, writer and producer. The other cast were said to be offered a fraction of Fey's salary.
Fey is also reportedly attached to a big screen musical adaptation of Mean Girls, alongside Tim Meadows.
Mean Girls was released in 2004 and has since become a cult classic.
