On the eve of October 3 — or as many diehard fans call it, Mean Girls day — two of the beloved film's stars reconnected on the streets in Times Square, N.Y.C. for a photo op.

Jonathan Bennett shared a series of Instagram photos Sunday of himself and former co-star Daniel Franzese laughing and kissing each other on the cheek with the tongue-in-cheek caption, "What gay is it?"

Bennett, 41, and Franzese's play on words refer to one of the comedy film's much-quoted scenes when Lindsay Lohan's character tells Bennett's character it's Oct. 3.

This mini-reunion isn't the first time cast members have celebrated the occasion alongside their fans.

In 2021, Amanda Seyfried shared a throwback post on Instagram of a behind-the-scenes moment from the filming of Mean Girls in 2003.
