No hate, but I wasn’t a fan of Reneé. I felt like her riffs in Someone Gets Hurt were really unnecessary and they made the song flat. I really loved Taylor Louderman’s Regina and kind of wish we could bring her back! I was so sad when she left Broadway!
Hi guys. Someone from the future. I will have you know that QUEEN REGINA GEORGE WILL BE PLAYED BY MS. RENEE RAPP IN THE UPCOMING MEAN GIRLS THE MUSICAL MOVIE!!!
Ariana Grande? I mean she already played it in the thank u, next video and definitely has the vocals for it, and I think she has matured beyond the ditzy Cat Valentine character and needs to stop being typecast as such
I love this list! The only change I would make is Sadie Sink as Cady! She's a broadway kid with a great voice She's 18 SHe's a natural redhead and STRANGER THINGS!!! I would love to see her on top of all your fabulous picks
He wouldn’t be suitable for Mean Girls anyways.. if he were to be cast he’d need to have songs and a decent part. In Mean Girls the only males that have decent parts are Arron and Damien and since Corden can’t pass as a teen it wouldn’t work.
This list is so incredible and I would cry if this is how they cast it. However, with how accurate to age you were casting a lot of the characters I don’t feel that Arianna, Liz, and Alex (even though they are fantastic and I love them so so so so so much) will play to that same age when surrounded by people who are actually 18 to early twenties.
a star on the rise madison reyes but ppl aren't ready to talk about julie and the phantoms yet 😌 (yes it's directed towards teens but it's a hella good show and the music and drama is spectacular)
The second you said Joshua as Aaron, I knew Cady was going to be Olivia. I honestly think they would both be amazing in these roles and would attract so many viewers!
Sabrina Carpenter should be Cady. She only got to play her for two days, she has a great voice, and she's played sweet girl and bad girl equally well. Also, Jordan Fisher as Aaron anyone?
I totally agree producers should employ the community more but these movies always need some big names to attract attention so choosing Ariana and Liz makes so much sense, they dont work in musicals now but they were on broadway when they were young and are also really big musical fans (they were the ones that got me into this world lol) so if the producers do cast big names to attract attention I hope they cast people who respect and appreciate musical theatre like Ari and Liz do
Okay but hear me out. She was in the original Mean Girls movie. She’s been in several movie musicals and we know for a fact that she can sing. Mrs. George needs to be able to sing (please don’t cut "What’s Wrong With Me (Reprise)" out. . . . . AMANDA SEYFRIED! It just makes so much sense to me that she’d go from Karen to Mrs. George who are two (very different) airheads. Plus she’s a really good singer. I just want it to happen so bad!
ok i loved most of the casting! i just wish that you casted more people with the college/hs age :/ like barret, ariana, as much as I love her, liz gillies. love you both and loved this video!! also excited for your next twitch stream :)
I honestly thought that the "drama for the tabloids" was that fact that Sabrina Carpenter was paying the role on Broadway after only getting like two days of being the character before COVID shut it down. I 100% forgot about the Joshua casting by that point in the video ahaha.
this channel is so comforting and addicting to watch WHY HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN ALL MY LIFE YOU'RE BOTH SO GORGEOUS AND SMART HOW HAVE I ONLY DISCOVERED YOUR UA-cam A FEW DAYS AGO??
Sam and Ryan: We’re trying to cast this age appropriately Also Sam and Ryan: *casts like four 27/28 year olds as high schoolers Not meant as hate but I just thought it was funny
These choices are pretty perfect! I really loved the Liz and Alex mentions. I was surprised that I didn't hear Sabrina Carpenter's name in the mix with the tabloid drama conversation re: Joshua & Olivia, especially since she was cast as Cady for a split second. I wouldn't necessarily promote drama (especially between young women) and they've both since cleared the air but I think this could be a great hypothetical project to work on together -- Olivia as Cady and Sabrina as Regina. I also thought of Rachel Crow as Karen perhaps? I also think re: stars on the rise / new talent goes, I can see Madison Reyes as Cady or Janis.
OMG I LITERALLY WAS THINKING KARAN BRAR FOR KEVIN G BEFORE YOU EVEN SAID IT. HE WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO COME TO MIND. I was like no way, they're not gonna pick him, BUT YOU DID AHH!! He's literally perfect for it!
I actually feel like Elle McLemore would be a good choice for Karen, since she played a similar role in Heathers, and just overall seems like such a kind and likable person
For Janice I think I have also a really good idea, what about Sophia Anne Caruso, she played also a gothic character in Beetlejuice, she is 19, she can sing...
I kind of love this list! Even as you brought up a character, I thought of the actor you did. Even when I didn't your choice was great, an incredibly diverse cast and I would love to see it.
Also adding to the Liz Gillies part: In Ariana Grande´s music video for 7 rings, she was literally in the Mean Girls scene (as Cady but who cares) and she has said multiple times that she likes Mean Girls
Lol, I knew that Ryan would place Barrett as Janis. And I also think that Renee is a perfect Regina. I even think about Sabrina as Cady, but I never see her perform so have no clue, if she's good or bad. And it would be so much better if they would place James as Cady's dad. A little cameo, but not too much
O my god!!!!! I am screaming so much watching this!!!!! Like Liz, RENEEEEE, Josh and Olivia! YESSSSSSS! That is exactly what I decided I wanted like 4 months ago!!!!! Ahhhh
when y'all said cameron dallas, i was so concerned and it really hurt my heart...you played us so hard cause you went for so long 😂 But 100% agree with Renee as Regina - an icon, we stan her ✨ I'll be honest I was kinda vibing Sabrina as Cady cause I thought she would be great in the show and it was cut too short! But throws a little spice in the mix in comparison with your casting of Olivia ooop 😳 love that 😂
I'm so happy there's so many movie musicals. I live in Australia so we only get a few musicals at a time. Been lucky enough to see 4 already this year which is crazy & then we have more later this year so I'm just so excited for this musical filled year.
ur casting is so good,i never thought about karan as kevin & it sounds great & when u guys said liz as janis i was like OMG YES YES also another option for cady & aaron can be sabrina carpenter & jordan fisher,they'd both be amazing,they're SO talented,jordan is a heartthrob,sabrina was cady on broadway(for only 2 nights unfortanutly) & their chemistry is so good
Renee's Regina was too short lived. I'm so happy you brought her back
No hate, but I wasn’t a fan of Reneé. I felt like her riffs in Someone Gets Hurt were really unnecessary and they made the song flat. I really loved Taylor Louderman’s Regina and kind of wish we could bring her back! I was so sad when she left Broadway!
@@agg304 she would be too old for an on screen version
Hi I'm from the future. Prepare for happiness my friend
Hi guys. Someone from the future. I will have you know that QUEEN REGINA GEORGE WILL BE PLAYED BY MS. RENEE RAPP IN THE UPCOMING MEAN GIRLS THE MUSICAL MOVIE!!!
Let’s be honest... we all know deep down that James Corden is going to play every single role
I would pay to see that😭✋
That would be hilarious
Yup. Lol
it’ll just be james cordon with a bunch of different wigs
I heard he’s playing Regina
Also an idea could be Amanda Seyfried as any of the adult women since she was the og Karen and she’s got a bunch of movie musicals under her belt now
Maybe as reginas mom 😂
karen's mum. i know she's not a character but make it happen.
I totally agree
@@frozen_blondy2076 yea she could slay what’s wrong with me (reprise)
When y’all started talking about Cameron Dallas playing Aaron my heart literally dropped I’m like 😧 so glad you were kidding 😂
IKR me to
OMG SAME
Ik
Oh my god I was so confused for a second. I was like??? Didn’t everyone hate him. 😂
Me too! I was like 😳
“there are plenty of roles for 30 year olds to play 30 year olds. how about kids play kids?”

Excuse me, Ariana DeBose was the best thing about The Prom movie!
That's a strange way to spell Andrew Rannells singing Love Thy Neighbour

I actually loved him as well
That’s one upside about The Phantom of the Opera (2004). A 16 year old played Christine😌

When Sam said Liz gillies I just started screaming OMG YES SHE IS PERFECT I CANT BELIEVE SAM LOVED VICTORIOUS!!!!!
SAME

I WAS LIKE "IF THEY DON'T SAY LIZ GILLIES I'D TURN THIS VIDEO OFF" AND LIKE LIZ
Just finished watching it for the first time(cause I was robbed of experiencing it in my childhood) and yeeesssssssssss!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍
I was dying throughout that whole part. Feels like a crossover to me
Sam and Ryan after saying how great Cameron Dallas was: "obviously that was a lie!"
Me: *deletes paragraph*
I know nothing about him, what’s the tea?
@@aweaver2302 He agreed to playing Aaron in the musical and he was terrible at it :D
or that's all I know LMAO
sorry, i'm only accepting james corden as regina
Nah he should just play all 3 of the plastics...
@@sofia.eagles5678 imagine that... three james cordens rolling out on that table as the set washes pink...
I will have James Cordon as Cady and Regina and we all know he’s gonna be Elphaba, Galinda and the Wizard in Wicked too.
You gotta be kidding…..😭😭
DUDE Ariana as Karen is genius. Her role in Scream Queens was super airhead and sooo funny, she’d be amazing as Karen.
Omg I totally forgot her role in Scream Queens! She was amazing as Chanel #2.
I was thinking it would be Heather Morris because she played Brittney in Glee but Ari is our queen so I’m ok with it.
Plus wasn't she also in 13? So she has been in musicals before
Plus we know she can be THAT popular girl,
She showed it off in 13…
“I think they all sang” was such a deep cut and unexpected reference I choked 😂
If it’s not Reneé as Regina then I don’t even know what I’ll do. She owns that role, and her vocals are something else
i *agree*
@Madison and Leah Taylor won't do it. Erika henningson told me none of the obc wants to be in the remake because they are too old
Ariana Grande? I mean she already played it in the thank u, next video and definitely has the vocals for it, and I think she has matured beyond the ditzy Cat Valentine character and needs to stop being typecast as such
SHE IS. OMG. SO EXCITING.
I've never been so honored to be called daddy
Tell my why I KNEW you were going to say Josh AND Olivia before it even happened. HAHAHHAHA I LOVE IT
maybe because it was in the thumbnail perhaps? (this is a joke btw)
@@RJ-pk3ns that’s what I was gonna say (but not a joke) but then I saw you said it first😂

She's a broadway kid with a great voice
She's 18
SHe's a natural redhead
and STRANGER THINGS!!!
I would love to see her on top of all your fabulous picks
I agree sm Olivia as Cady doesn’t feel right but I feel like Sadie sink would do the role justice
completely agree
Omg I’d love to see this
@@kowabungakelly I HOPE it happens one day!
wooooaaa yaaaassss sadie
Wait Karan Brar is a GENIUS pick!
Edit: Also Joshua, Alex, and pretty much everyone else is top tier casting!
Also I think Gregory Diaz the forth would also be a good Kevin g (he was in in the heights btw)
the only two people who wont cast james corden in a musical movie I bow down to you
Besides the West Side Story casting directors lol
@@sophier8613 RIGHT OMG...i expect nothing less from mr speilberg
He wouldn’t be suitable for Mean Girls anyways.. if he were to be cast he’d need to have songs and a decent part. In Mean Girls the only males that have decent parts are Arron and Damien and since Corden can’t pass as a teen it wouldn’t work.

Yes that's what I thought too
“We wanna cast age appropriate people”
*proceeds to cast older actors😭*
LOVE the list but the age variety would just be tooooo funny
@@cats7414 it would be another dear evan hansen situation 😭
a star on the rise madison reyes but ppl aren't ready to talk about julie and the phantoms yet 😌 (yes it's directed towards teens but it's a hella good show and the music and drama is spectacular)
aaaahghhhh yess!! love madi reyes she is criminally underrated
Yes! She immediately came to mind for Cady as well.
Yes she’s so talented.
I’d love to see savannah lee May as Karen
YES THIS
The one dislike is from Bailey getting told that shes dramatic
The second you said Joshua as Aaron, I knew Cady was going to be Olivia. I honestly think they would both be amazing in these roles and would attract so many viewers!
Sabrina Carpenter should be Cady. She only got to play her for two days, she has a great voice, and she's played sweet girl and bad girl equally well. Also, Jordan Fisher as Aaron anyone?
I really likw this too...honestly also kinda like oliva as gretchen better
YES TO BOTH OMG
Jordan is actually playing Aaron tho. Lol
Yes I agree
Jordan yes omg yes
Mine: Reneé Rapp as Regina and the rest are the og cast. Although I love Taylor Louderman, Reneé is my fave.
saaaaaaammmmeeeeee ✨✨✨✨✨
Yes Erika Henningsen is a Queen
the way Cameron Dallas is the joke of Mean Girls on bway is hysterical😭😂
me: * has a million things to do for school *
also me: * watches 18 minutes of Sam and Ryan casting the Mean Girls movie *
BAHAHAHA loved when ryan pulled the "i think they AlL sInG"
Karan and alex were just INCREDIBLE DECISIONS
ikr they would be incredible for those roles!
Karan Brar is a GENIUS casting choice.
I totally agree producers should employ the community more but these movies always need some big names to attract attention so choosing Ariana and Liz makes so much sense, they dont work in musicals now but they were on broadway when they were young and are also really big musical fans (they were the ones that got me into this world lol) so if the producers do cast big names to attract attention I hope they cast people who respect and appreciate musical theatre like Ari and Liz do
Omg if Olivia played Cady after Sabrina played cady for like 2 nights on Broadway before Covid😂😂☕️
Oh god that would be hilarious
Deja vu xd
Why would that even matter
@@_..jolene.._ cos of the whole josh Olivia Sabrina drama
Omg! I didn’t think about that
i’d love to see the people you mentioned but idk how Ariana Grande and Elizabeth Gilles are gonna work next to Olivia Rodrigo as the same age
I feel like it would make it even better
Makeup they could make it work
Okay but hear me out. She was in the original Mean Girls movie. She’s been in several movie musicals and we know for a fact that she can sing. Mrs. George needs to be able to sing (please don’t cut "What’s Wrong With Me (Reprise)" out.

Thank you for bringing Renee back. The world needs to experience her talent!
Also what about Mr. Duvall? I personally would love someone like Eddie Murphy to come in and bring the laughs as a fun small appearance.
Ryan’s “I think they all sang” was literally the best part
Can’t wait for y’all’s “In The Heights” reviewwwww!!
When they said who would be great instead of Barrett the first think I thought was "what about that girl that played Veronica in Heathers" lol
I mean... I think they all sing. SOMEBODY GET THIS MAN HE WILDIN
The fact that they got Renee right was insane
I LITERALLY SCREAMED WHEN YOU SAID LIZ GILLIESSSS I thought of her but I thought you wouldnt say herrrr
wait-
musical theatre is cool at schools
cause it definitely ain't at my school
i gotta keep my theater nerd self to myself or the monsters come at me
Be proud of your theater nerd self😌 we stan a theater kid.
I’d love to see y’all tackle a Heathers Musical movie or a new RENT musical movie 👀
7:13 this better be a prank.. very funny guys HAHA -_-
Once again, I manifested a Mean Girls dream cast vid for the movie musical!!
Watching this again after Renee’s been announced and it’s making me so hyped for this all over again!!!
I honestly thought that the "drama for the tabloids" was that fact that Sabrina Carpenter was paying the role on Broadway after only getting like two days of being the character before COVID shut it down. I 100% forgot about the Joshua casting by that point in the video ahaha.
I never watched Mean Girls, but from the way y'all described the characters, i think these people are great for this
I highly recommend!! It’s so good. There are many bootlegs on here of it snd there is a movie (the movie isn’t musical though)
@@_..jolene.._ thanks, i will try to watch it before the musical movie adaption comes out
I knew they were going to put Olivia as Cady as soon as they started describing who her lol. Also I love your cast
this channel is so comforting and addicting to watch WHY HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN ALL MY LIFE YOU'RE BOTH SO GORGEOUS AND SMART HOW HAVE I ONLY DISCOVERED YOUR UA-cam A FEW DAYS AGO??
I literally agree with all of them! Also HSMTMTS season 2 is coming out in two days! Kinda perfect lol
This dream cast you guys made NEEDS TO HAPPEN, every single role is perfectly cast and now I need this to happen
Sam and Ryan: We’re trying to cast this age appropriately
Also Sam and Ryan: *casts like four 27/28 year olds as high schoolers
Not meant as hate but I just thought it was funny
Isn’t that the norm now tho

I need one for Hamilition next! Or something like bring old to new., grease maybe?
Ik this was way before the movie but omg Avantika did such a good job as Karen
I actually feel like Elle McLemore would be a good choice for Karen, since she played a similar role in Heathers, and just overall seems like such a kind and likable person
For Janice I think I have also a really good idea, what about Sophia Anne Caruso, she played also a gothic character in Beetlejuice, she is 19, she can sing...
There was not a single choice I was not aggressively bobbing my head along with. I would LOVE to see this
I was so on board with all of these, and then you said Alex Newell as Damien ... Mind. Blown. YES. Somebody make this happen!
so olivia as cady in the movie opposite josh as aaron while sabrina's broadway run as cady lasted 2 shows.... interesting
Plz plz make more of these!
Some ideas that came to mind are The Color Purple or Miss Saigon 🤷🏼 (both “in the works”)
First thing that popped into my head when u guys said "Kevin G."
"KARAN BRAR. GET THIS MAN UP HERE NOW."
PLEASE do more of these videos I’m OBSESSED with them. Your choices are always SPOT ON. Love it.
Thank you Ryan for the wonderful Zoom chat this afternoon. It was a fun and informative discussion.
When you mentioned the fact that “Cady” was a really big rising star with a great Vioce I said: it’s obviously Olivia

Also adding to the Liz Gillies part: In Ariana Grande´s music video for 7 rings, she was literally in the Mean Girls scene (as Cady but who cares) and she has said multiple times that she likes Mean Girls

JOSHUA BASSET AS ARON SAMUELS IS THE GREATEST THING ALONE I HAVE EVER SEEN ON THE INTERNET
