“Mean Girls” star Rachel McAdams has revealed that she turned down starring roles in a bevy of major films following the runaway success of the 2004 teen cult classic.
Thanks in large part to her role as high school clique leader Regina George, McAdams became one of the white-hot actresses of the mid-aughts.
In the months and years that followed “Mean Girls,” the Canadian actress also starred in “The Notebook,” “Wedding Crashers” and “The Family Stone.” However, she went on to turn down five big films between 2006 and 2008, instead opting to spend time with family in her native Ontario.
