Mean Girls

PLUTO TV SEPTEMBER 2026 HIGHLIGHTS

Free Streaming Premieres
“Mean Girls” (2024) and “Smile” make their exclusive free streaming premieres September 1, available to stream free on demand.

From the comedic mind of Tina Fey comes a new twist on the modern classic. “Mean Girls” stars Angourie Rice as new student Cady Heron, who is welcomed into the top of the social food chain by the Plastics, ruled by queen bee Regina George (Reneé Rapp).

But when Cady falls for Regina’s ex-boyfriend Aaron Samuels (Christopher Briney), she finds herself in Regina’s crosshairs and sets out to take down the Plastics with the help of Janis (Auliʻi Cravalho) and Damian (Jaquel Spivey).

Based on the Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical inspired by the 2004 film, “Mean Girls” is directed by Samantha Jayne and Arturo Perez Jr., with a screenplay by Tina Fey, music by Jeff Richmond, and lyrics by Nell Benjamin. The film also stars Avantika, Bebe Wood, Jenna Fischer, Busy Philipps, Jon Hamm, Ashley Park, Tina Fey, and Tim Meadows.

Smile

Whether you know exactly what happens when you see that smile, or you’ve managed to avoid it until now, there’s no escaping it this September. “Smile” comes to Pluto TV September 1 for its exclusive free streaming premiere, becoming available to stream at no cost for the first time.

Written and directed by Parker Finn, “Smile” stars Sosie Bacon as Dr. Rose Cotter, who begins experiencing frightening occurrences she can’t explain after witnessing a bizarre, traumatic incident involving a patient. As an overwhelming terror begins taking over her life, Rose must confront her troubling past in order to survive and escape her horrifying new reality.
