The cast of Mean Girls, including Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Seyfried, and Lacey Chabert, has reunited for a series of Walmart commercials promoting the retail giant's upcoming Black Friday deals.
In the commercials, the cast members reprise their roles as adult versions of their characters from the original film.
Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan) narrates the commercial, mentioning that some things never change at North Shore High School, such as wearing pink on Wednesdays. Cady has become the school's guidance counselor and awkwardly blurts out "gruel" in front of confused students
The cast members enthusiastically discuss the upcoming Walmart Black Friday deals as if they were gossiping about high school drama.
The commercial features Gretchen Wieners (Lacey Chabert) trying to make 'fetch' happen once again, while a new generation of Plastics brings back the iconic Jingle Bell Rock dance.
Gretchen, now a mom, picks up her daughter in a convertible and urges her to go deal shopping at Walmart.
Meanwhile, Karen Smith (Amanda Seyfried), now a weather reporter, humorously states that there's a 30% chance it's already Wednesday.
Kevin Gnapoor (Rajiv Surendra) is shown raising a son with his trademark style, encouraging him not to let the haters stop him from being himself.
Gretchen helps her daughter and friends film a dance video, still trying to make her catchphrase mainstream, but her daughter dismisses it.
The commercial also recreates the infamous 'sex education' scene, with Missy Elliott playing a new female gym coach lecturing about Walmart deals.
Instead of the Burn Book, the high school students riot over the new Black Friday deals.
The Walmart commercials will be released throughout the month leading up to Black Friday and Cyber Monday, with a new commercial dropping each Wednesday, reminiscent of the film's famous "On Wednesdays we wear pink" line.
