Rachel McAdams has finally explained why Regina George wasn't featured in Walmart's “Mean Girls” reunion ad for Black Friday this year.

In an interview with Variety, the 45-year-old actress revealed that she turned down the opportunity because she wasn't interested in starring in a commercial.

“I don't know it. If I'm being completely honest, I guess I wasn't that excited about doing a commercial,” McAdams told Variety. “A movie sounded great, but I've never done commercials before and it just didn't feel like my style.”

When she declined the offer, she also wasn't aware that some of her co-stars had already agreed, she added.

“Besides… I didn’t know everyone did that. “I would obviously always love to be part of a 'Mean Girls' reunion and hang out with my plastics, but yeah, I found that out later,” she continued.

Walmart's “Mean Girls” commercial was released in November and featured Lindsay Lohan, Lacey Chabert and Amanda Seyfried playing adult versions of their original characters.

A “Mean Girls” musical adaptation written by Tina Fey is scheduled to hit theaters on January 12, 2024.

However, Lohan, Chabert, Seyfried and McAdams will not portray their characters in the remake, Entertainment Weekly reported.
