Now, after 20 years, Fey is revisiting North Shore High School with a cinematic adaptation of the 2017 stage musical based on the original movie. Fey once again wrote the script and portrayed Ms. Norbury — and Lohan arrived at the premiere of the new film to show her support for the grool new project.

Lohan previously reprised her Mean Girls role last year alongside former castmates Amanda Seyfried and Lacey Chabert in a Walmart commercial.

In an interview with EW, Fey reflected on the challenges of balancing familiarity with new additions when making Mean Girls for the second time. "It’s tricky, because jokes have to be surprises to work," Fey said. "So, finding genuine new moments and then finding spots to subvert what you expect the old line to be was really helpful." She also joked about the surreality of penning the same movie twice. "Sometimes I say I feel like I’m in a Twilight Zone episode where I’m like, 'Oh, so I just write this one movie for the rest of my life? Okay!'"

Mean Girls hits theaters Jan. 12.
