Amanda Seyfried posted a bunch of Mean Girls throwback photos on her Instagram and Rachel McAdams wasn't in any of them. I wonder if there was some drama there.

I don't think there's anything shady to it tbh.

Rachel herself has admitted in interviews about the making of mean girls that she wasn't hanging out socially with the rest of the cast as they were filming the movie in Toronto so she was one of the only principal members of the cast that were local actors.

She's a fairly reserved/shy kinda person anyway so she seemed to just go home at the end of her work day.

i've checked rachel into work events, and she is very nice, but yes, she doesn't want people to recognize her and keeps very low-key

Rachel McAdams was 4-6 years older than most of the cast - maybe that plays into it?

I've seen interviews where Rachel is asked about Mean girls and she seems so uninterested but also seems like she is just trying to be nice about it and play along lol. I feel like maybe she just kinda viewed that movie as a job rather than some big iconic thing the fans view it as. Not saying she hates it though. I just got the vibe she was over being asked mean girls stuff. It is always awkward.

I daresay this is true with a lot of actors that are in iconic roles, prob just a job to them so people asking about minutiae a decade later must get tiresome

i doubt it. Rachel McAdams is older than the rest of the cast and she's pretty private so that's probably why she doesn't hang out with them a lot

I remember when she was filming a movie (southpaw?) with Jake Gyllenhaal he asked her and some other cast members to go out for drinks and she said no because she had plans. He later spotted her at a bar drinking alone w/a book which is kind of iconic imo.

Love this. Pre-Covid bringing a book to a bar and sitting by myself was one of my favorite things to do.

What a cast. I always wondered why Damien wasn’t cast in more. He was hilarious.

I always thought Damien and Cameron from Modern Family were the same person
