“Mean Girls” is one film from the early noughties which has really stood the test of time. Most fans will agree that it is perfectly cast, with Lindsay Lohan in the lead role of Cady Heron, while Rachel McAdams headed up the mean girl squad as Regina George. But, once upon a time, the film’s main lineup looked totally different.

What’s more, as Panabaker dished to Michael Rosenbaum on “Inside of You,” she almost landed the part of Cady. “I went in and I did table reads for Paramount and everything and originally, I think — I mean, look, my agent could’ve been lying to me — but originally they were looking at me and Lindsay,” she said.
