The musical gave Regina the best songs so I'm looking forward to this.

 

This film's success will depend on who they cast as Regina.

Great get for Rice. I assume this is on track for a 2024 release (20 year anniversary of the original movie).

[filmlover]

All the articles for this are confirming this will debut on Paramount+. Well then, time to move it to the streaming section.

This looks like it's going to go theatrical. Just got an invite for a test screening for this movie, and test screenings are normally not done for streaming movies. My guess is that Paramount is seeing if they have anything here to send it theatrical.

Now going theatrical on MLK weekend.

@Eric Ross time to move back to the main section!

I know this is an old comment, but I thought Regina had the worst songs. I thought Janis (perhaps unsurprisingly) had the best songs. The one that stuck me with the most:

Apex Predator was always my favourite song in the show.

Should be big if it can remain funny and take some chances. 

[PrinceRico]

I can definitely see this falling when people can just watch the classic 

[filmlover]

Just like how The Color Purple might fail when people can just watch the classic?

 

These movies are taking a very different approach to their material and will mostly succeed (or fail) based on their own merits. I imagine the trailer for this is bowing in a couple of weeks as a Taylor attachment: the trailers before that are going to be very female-targeted.

[Ezen Baklattan]

October 3rd would be the perfect day to release a trailer for this.

Ugh, just cave and do Mean Moms with the OG cast people. Even LiLo has expressed interest in recent years. Seems to just be McAdams who hasn’t expressed excitement over it, but I’m sure a big paycheck could say otherwise.

Yeah, that’s 100% what they should focus on, a sequel where they’re moms should sell loads of tickets on nostalgia alone after so long I think.
