Glassy-hairedbutt-grabber (opens in new tab) Jennifer Aniston is poised to star in the upcoming "spiritual sequel" to Mean Girls. It is unclear at this time whether she'll play a regular or a cool mom.

According to Deadline (opens in new tab), the Cake actress is eyeing a role in Mean Moms, based on the Rosalind Wiseman advice book—deep breath—Queen Bee Moms and King Pin Dads: Dealing with the Parents, Teachers, Coaches, and Counselors Who Can Make—or Break—Your Child's Future. The film will focus on a mother of two who moves from a small town to the hyper-competitive suburbs, where, presumably, they wear pink to SAT prep classes on Wednesdays and push valedictorians in front of school buses.
