This Mean Girls Throwback Will Make You Want to Re-Watch The Movie

How was this movie released 17 years ago?! - by Maddison Leach
  • 19 Aug 2021

Amanda Seyfried just shared a Mean Girls cast throwback from the 2000s and we have to say it…

That’s so fetch.

WATCH: Lindsay Lohan really wants a Mean Girls reunion.

Taking to Instagram to post the nostalgic snap Amanda, who played ditzy blonde Karen Smith in the 2004 movie, only needed one word for her caption.

“Wednesdays,” she labelled the photo, in reference to her iconic line: "On Wednesdays we wear pink."

The old school snap shows her with fellow stars from the iconic teen film.

Posing at what looks to be a party, Amanda has Lacey Chabert (AKA Gretchen Wieners) on one side of her and Lizzy Caplan (AKA Janis Ian) on the other.

Behind her stands actor Jonathan Bennett, better known as the school's resident jock Aaron Samuels, wearing a brown shirt with his hair falling across his eyes.

Frankly, we think it looks better pushed back – if you know, you know.

Fellow star Daniel Franzese, who played Damian, commented “I love these faces” on the pic alongside three heart emojis.

It’s not the first time Amanda has shared a fun throwback to the 2000s movie that defined all our childhoods.

In July she shared a snap with the same three actors, as well as Daniel Franzese and even Lindsay Lohan.

“#FBF weekends in 2003, baby,” she captioned that photo.

The cast have really grown up in the 17 years since the movie was released, so where are they all now?

Well, Amanda and Rachel McAdams, who played Regina George, went on to have pretty successful acting careers.

Both have starred in several blockbuster movies since Mean Girls, Amanda playing a leading role in the Mamma Mia movies and Rachel making her name as a romcom darling.

Lindsay Lohan was also a pretty successful actor, until she faced some personal troubles and substance abuse issues that saw her step back from stardom.

She’s since made a bit of a comeback with her music and acting career, and she’s expected to star in a Netflix Christmas movie at the end of the year.

Lacey (Gretchen) kept acting too and has appeared in a whopping 18 Hallmark Channel movies in the US, while Lizzy (Janis) has a few awards under her belt for her movie and TV roles.

As for Jonathan (Aaron), he’s done a bit of acting and presenting, a bit of modelling and even has his own pop culture cookbook.

He’s also become a gay icon and is currently engaged to former US Amazing Race contestant and Jaymes Vaughan.
