Who penned the screenplays for the original and musical remake of “Mean Girls”?

Tina Fey (SNL, 30 Rock) wrote the screenplay for the iconic 2004 “Mean Girls” movie and its 2024 musical remake. The original film became a cultural touchstone, etching phrases like “fetch” into the cool lexicon. Fast forward to January 12, 2024, and Fey strikes again, adapting her own Broadway musical into a movie, proving that some stories are just too good to tell only once.
