MANILA, Philippines   A Mean Girls film reunion? It’s not happening, said the film’s writer and co-star Tina Fey, reported Extra TV.

In an interview with Extra TV, Fey revealed that the original cast might reunite for the 10th anniversary of the film, but a movie reunion isn’t in the stars.

“We’re going to see if there’s any way to get everyone together, but not a movie, sadly. We’re all past high school age,” she said.

In a recent interview with Jimmy Fallon, actress Lindsay Lohan also hinted a possible reunion for the cast.

Mean Girls, arguably one of the most popular Hollywood teen movies, premiered in the US in April 2004. Based on the non-fiction book Queen Bees and Wannabes by Rosalind Wiseman, the teen comedy follows high school student Cady Heron (Lohan), who, after being homeschooled, enters the world of high school cliques and teenage drama.

The film also starred Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, and Lacey Chabert as members of a popular clique “The Plastics.”

A film reunion may not be in the works, but a Broadway production of the film might be, reported Vulture. In addition, Mean Moms, a film adaptation of a book inspired by Queen Bees and Wannabees is also in the works. According to Deadline, the film follows a mother, who, after moving to a high-class suburb, is faced with the “cutthroat world of competitive parenting.”

A standalone sequel Mean Girls 2 was created in 2011, but many fans are still clamoring for a sequel featuring the original cast members. Mean Girls 2, a television movie released by ABC Family, featured only one of the original cast members, high school principal Tim Meadows.

According to a release by ABC Family, the film’s debut topped weekly rankings among viewers aged 12 to 34.
