Here’s What ‘Mean Girls’ Would Look Like as a Queer Love Story

What if we told you that Mean Girls wasn’t actually about following the lives of four catty high schoolers, but rather, a movie about the love story between Cady Heron and Janice Ian? A dystopian girl world that doesn’t revolve around Regina George victimizing people, but a world centered around two girls who are secretly in love with each other? We know, it’s pretty strange to think about.

Well, Mashable’s new “Trailer Mix”—a series that completely reimagines and mashes up movies into entirely different genres—cut the classic film into “Mean Girls: The Forbidden Lesbian Romance.” It is supposed to be set as as a Carol and Brokeback Mountain-esque romantic drama, featuring Cady and Janice as two star-crossed lovers.

Oddly enough, this re-cut trailer totally works, and it actually looks likes a movie we’d want to see. So, when’s the release?
