As a cinephile who has witnessed the evolution of cinema over several decades, I find myself enthralled by the prospect of a Mean Girls holiday reunion. The idea is not only intriguing but also seems like a natural progression for these talented actors who have graced our screens with their charisma and wit.
This holiday season, the lineup of Netflix movies offered a delightful surprise for fans of “Mean Girls”. Not only did Lacey Chabert break away from her usual Hallmark movie roles, but the return of Lindsay Lohan as Cady Heron was an added bonus, with many praising it as Netflix’s finest Christmas movie of 2024, titled “Our Little Secret“. This year has already had a “Plastics” feel to it, but after listening to what Jonathan Bennett had to share, I firmly believe that it’s high time for a reunion of the “Mean Girls” cast during the holiday season.
Jonathan Bennett, a prominent actor in Hallmark+’s upcoming “The Groomsmen” trilogy, where he challenges LGBTQ+ stereotypes through his character Danny, has found a home in their family-friendly network’s romantic comedies, sharing the screen with Christmas royalty Lacey Chabert. On the other hand, Lindsay Lohan is experiencing a resurgence on Netflix. Bennett believes it’s no accident that fans of “Mean Girls” are likely to also enjoy the upcoming holiday movies in 2025. He stated:
It seems particularly striking that Mean Girls and Christmas films share something unique – they both provide an underlying theme, which is the ability to bring joy to viewers. There appears to be a strong bond between fans of Mean Girls and Christmas movie enthusiasts, as they both seek comfort in films that lift their spirits and leave them feeling uplifted. I believe this is exactly what these movies are designed to do.
Jonathan Bennett might choose not to deck out his home for Christmas because he’s often “swathed in tinsel,” but make no mistake, the sentiment behind his desire to spread joy among his fans is pure. All that remains is a reunion of him on-screen with Lacey Chabert and Lindsay Lohan, two collaborators from his Hallmark days. Bennett further added:
It seems fantastic that Lindsay Lohan, Lacey Chabert, and I are all featured in separate Christmas movies, as this aligns perfectly with our brand and role as actors and storytellers – to bring holiday cheer to the masses. The intriguing question now is, when will we collaborate on a joint Christmas film featuring both Lacey Chabert and Lindsay Lohan, along with myself? I’m eager for that opportunity because I believe it would bring immense joy to many fans. Let’s make it happen!
The actor who played Cady’s crush, Aaron Samuels, has mentioned wanting to work with Lacey Chabert on a Hallmark version of Mean Girls, and he’s also expressed his excitement about it. So, let’s hope for a fun collaboration between these two talented actors!
It’s hard to picture Lindsay Lohan and Lacey Chabert, or Gretchen Wieners in the context of this conversation, not participating. This year, they were seen together at one of Netflix’s events, recreating a scene that was quite reminiscent of their iconic “so fetch” moment from Mean Girls. Interestingly, both of their recent films, Lindsay Lohan’s “Our Little Secret” and Lacey Chabert’s “Hot Frosty”, include subtle nods to the classic movie Mean Girls.
For quite some time now, this threesome of performers has been subtly including nods to their past work within their films. Recently, Jonathan Bennett incorporated a line from “Mean Girls” into his movie “The Holiday Sitter” on Hallmark, only a few weeks after Lindsay Lohan cleverly referenced her own past in Netflix’s “Falling for Christmas”.
Regarding this upcoming project, I’m just curious about one thing – whether the potential “Mean Girls” holiday movie will air on Hallmark Channel, or if we’ll have to subscribe to Netflix to watch it.
