Lacey Chabert recently appeared on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," where the host of the show brought out a photo from the set of "Mean Girls."

The photo, which had Lindsay Lohan (Cady Heron), Rachel McAdams (Regina George), Amanda Seyfried (Karen Smith), and Lacey Chabert (Gretchen Wieners) on stage in their holiday outfits from the scene where The Plastic performed "Jingle Bell Rock," had Chabert smiling from ear to ear.

Fallon then asked the actress if he would ever be on board for a sequel to "Mean Girls," to which she quickly exclaimed, "Oh absolutely!"

Chabert even had an idea for what direction the movie could go. "I think it would be so much fun to see where these women are now and if their kids are the new mean girls," she said. "I would love to know what they’re doing."

In 2020, Lindsay Lohan spoke with David Spade about a sequel to "Mean Girls," and she admitted she would be on board with a sequel. “I think I was hanging on to [Mean Girls] for a really long idea," Lohan said. "I wanted to come back with a Mean Girls 2 with the same cast, work with Tina [Fey] and the whole crew again and [Mean Girls director] Mark Waters...but that’s all in their hands, really.”

This is something Lohan also said more recently, while on "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon." When the host, Jimmy Fallon, asked the actress if she would be on board for a "Mean Girls" sequel, she replied by saying, "I think that's in Tina Fey's hands and Lorne Michaels," referring to the writer and producer of the film.

But Lindsay Lohan and Lacey Chabert aren't the only two original cast members to be on board with a sequel. Rachel McAdams, who portrayed the iconic Regina George, said she would love to take on the role again. "“It would be fun to play Regina George later in her life and see where life took her!” she said during the "Heroes of Health: COVID-19 Stream-a-thon."

Adams added that there have been some “joking” conversations regarding a "Mean Girls 2," but there has not been any serious talk.

Technically speaking, there has already been a "Mean Girls 2," but fans were not impressed. The sequel was released in 2011 with an entirely new cast. The only character to reprise their role was Tim Meadows, who portrayed Principal Duvall.
