In early November, a Black Friday Walmart commercial aired that reunited original “Mean Girls” cast members Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Seyfried and Lacey Chabert, but without McAdams - we finally got an answer why.
“I don’t know; I guess I wasn’t that excited about doing a commercial if I’m being totally honest. A movie sounded awesome, but I’ve never done commercials, and it just didn’t feel like my bag. Also…I didn’t know that everyone was doing it. I would, of course, always love to be part of a ‘Mean Girls’ reunion and hang with my plastics, but yeah, I found that out later.”

Unfortunately, it sounds like McAdams will not appear despite Fey and Tim Meadows reprising their roles, however, we came close to having a Regina cameo.
“Tina and I sort of dabbled with a few ideas, but it was tough to make it all work in the end,” she says. “I was really down for whatever she wanted to do. I think the direction it went in will be fantastic and I cannot wait to see it.”
