Random Cast Of 'Mean Girls': Where Are They Now? (15 items)

• 

  (#11) Amy Poehler

  • 47

  Not a regular mom but a cool mom, June George painfully tries to emulate her queen bee daughter to hilarious results. She acts just like a Plastic, and she even lets her kids drink (as long as they keep it in the house).

  Amy Poehler already existed as a comedic powerhouse prior to Mean Girls, but after the film's release she went on to appear in beloved shows like Parks and Recreation (for which she won a Peabody) and movies such as Baby Mama with comedy partner Tina Fey. Behind the camera, Poehler served as a producer on both Broad City and Difficult People. In addition to her film career, she also started the website Amy Poehler's Smart Girls, a site dedicated to helping creative young women cultivate their work, and wrote a book titled Yes Please.

  (#9) Rajiv Surendra

  • 30

  As the mathelete Kevin Gnapoor, Rajiv Surendra definitely plays a character on the bottom of the food chain, but he's definitely too cool to care - which is why he ends up with Janis by the end of the movie.

  Post-movie, Surendra is a respected chalk artist and author of the book The Elephants in My Backyard. When auditions for the titular character in Life of Pi were underway, Surendra tried out, feeling his own upbringing strongly resembled that of Pi. In 2016 he told Architectural Digest, "Since I was a little kid, if I was interested in something I just found a way of doing it, whether it was making pottery in my basement or keeping chickens in my backyard."

  (#7) Daniel Franzese

  • 40

  As Damien in Mean Girls, Daniel Franzese spends most of his time hanging with Lizzy Caplan's Janis. He sings, he dances, he chucks a shoe at the school talent show. A fan of Danny DeVito's work, he provides the fateful candy canes that crack Gretchen Weiners.

  Since appearing in the film, Franzese pops up all over film and television, guesting on properties like HBO's Looking and ABC's Conviction. In 2018, he told People that playing Damien helped him come out.

  (#13) Neil Flynn

  • 58

  Most people know Neil Flynn from Scrubs, but his turn as Cady's dad Chip in Mean Girls shows an entirely different side of the star. Rather than exercising his cutting wit, Flynn shows the depths of his compassion, even when he tries to keep the peace between his daughter and his wife. After spending over a decade as a zoologist in Africa, he's lost on how to be a dad but he does his best.

  The production of Mean Girls fell in the middle of his 166 episodes of Scrubs, so that's mostly what Flynn was doing after the movie was released. After that show ended he continued working on a ton of TV shows; according to Deadline, he's actually appeared on 17 consecutive television seasons as of 2018.

  (#10) Tim Meadows

  • 58

  Tim Meadows is easily one of the funniest side players on the planet. From his days at Saturday Night Live to his appearance in Mean Girls, he provides a subtle surrealism to any scene in which he appears. Case in point: when he tells the students to make some noise before telling them to settle down.

  Since appearing in Mean Girls, Meadows has definitely appeared in something you like. He's in The Office, 30 Rock, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and Trainwreck (among other things).

  (#3) Rachel McAdams

  • 40

  Regina George constitutes the absolute worst of high school politics. As the leader of the Plastics, she makes life a living hell for everyone at North Shore High School, especially after her Burn Book becomes public knowledge.

  In real life, Rachel McAdams is the complete opposite of her nightmare Mean Girls character. In 2015, she donated $75,000 to the Nanny Angel Network for Canada's CIBC Miracle Day. Aside from her charitable demeanor, she's appeared in movies like The Time Traveler's Wife, both Sherlock Holmes movies, Doctor Strange, and Spotlight, for which she received an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
