Mean Girls’ Jonathan Bennett Reveals Where Aaron Samuels Is Today

It’s been almost 20 years since Mean Girls first premiered. North Shore High School alumni reunited for a series of Walmart commercials, except for Rachel McAdams. Jonathan Bennett, who played Cady’s love interest Aaron Samuels, was also not present in the commercials either. As we’re itching to find out what his character’s been up to, the Hallmark movie star dishes on his own theories.

Aaron Samuels was a senior at North Shore High who was the eye candy of new student Cady Heron and the former flame of Queen Bee Regina George. In an interview with E! News, Jonathan Bennett answers the question of where he sees his Mean Girls character now.

“He’s definitely a math teacher somewhere,” Bennett said jokingly. “And he’s winning the Nobel Peace Prize because he figured out a math formula to make fetch happen.”

Many fans also wondered if the character would be married to Cady. The Cheaper By the Dozen 2 actor shares his view.

“High school love–you can’t beat it,” said the 42-year-old actor. “I don’t know if they would still be together because I don’t know that many people that are still married who dated in high school. It’s like your first love, not your final love.”

Jonathan Bennett Gives Advice to 2024’s Mean Girls’ Aaron Samuels

Now that North Shore’s Graduation Class of 2004 has grown up, it’s time for a new Aaron Samuels to woo the ladies. The Summer I Turned Pretty actor Christopher Briney is the lucky young actor filling in those shoes. While talking to People, Jonathan Bennett shared what he hopes the 25-year-old will bring to the iconic role.

“I think the new musical movie is gonna be fantastic, and I hope that the new Aaron makes the character his own because it’s his time to interpret the character.”

While the musical remake will keep the personalities of Mean Girls’ memorable characters, watching the trailer reveals that these teens will differ from the ones we grew up with. The new movie clearly involves social media and I’m certain the help of songs will help in further developing supporting characters. But, I just hope they also make the new Aaron Samuels’ hair look sexy pushed back too.
