Rachel McAdams turned into an overnight sensation after she gave an iconic performance in the cult classic Mean Girls with fellow Plastics – Amanda Seyfried and Lacey Chabert. Queen Bee by all&nbsp;standards, Rachel has continued to entertain us with stellar performances every time she has come on our screens. Now, Rachel is ready with yet another feature, Lionsgate’s Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret. She has not only evolved as an actor but also in her personal life.&nbsp;

During the filming, Rachel had her five-month-old daughter. She already has a two-year-old son who would come with her to&nbsp;the set. Her personal life helped build her character for the new feature where she plays a mother to the titular character Margaret, played by Abby Ryder Fortson in Kelly Fremon Craig’s adaptation of the beloved Judy Blume book.&nbsp;

The film follows an 11-year-old girl in 1970 navigating the confusing times of puberty and adolescence and is a beautiful portrait of womanhood.

While promoting her recent film, Rachel was asked about turning down the&nbsp;Mean Girls reunion commercial, to which she said, “I don’t know; I guess I wasn’t that excited about doing a commercial if I’m being totally honest. A movie sounded awesome, but I’ve never done commercials, and it just didn’t feel like my bag. Also…I didn’t know that everyone was doing it. I would, of course, always love to be part of a Mean Girls&nbsp;reunion and hang with my plastics, but yeah, I found that out later.”

Meanwhile, an adaptation of the Broadway musical version of the movie will be released in January by Paramount Pictures, with scribe Tina Fey returning. Unfortunately, it sounds like McAdams will not appear despite Fey and Tim Meadows reprising their roles.

Rachel McAdams to star in 'Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret' adaptation

Actor Rachel McAdams revealed what has been keeping her busy while she`s stuck inside her home due to the coronavirus lockdown. 
 
According to the News agency, the `Notebook` star recently appeared in an interview with Canada's 'Heroes of Health: COVID-19 Stream-a-Thon'&nbsp;and said, "I have a very welcome distraction through my son, who is 2. So that`s pretty much what I do all the time."

The 41-year-old actor also shared that despite occasionally thinking that some alone time would be nice, she likes having her son around. 
 
She admitted that her son is so entertaining and said, "I thought about, Would I rather be alone in quarantine? Or with my family? You know, there are days sure, but I mean I would be so bored without him around to make it so fun."

Luckily, there has been plenty for the `Doctor Strange` actor and her little guy to get out and do. She said, "We live sort of out in the country, there is a little farm down the road, so we can go to it and look at the animals. We`ve been doing some planting, some okra. Well, I do the planting and he snacks most of the day." 
 
The 'Disobedience'&nbsp;actor also said that she is glad her son is so young because she doesn`t have to attempt to assist him with schooling as so many parents around the globe are. 
 
She said, "I`m very grateful he`s not in school yet because I can`t even imagine trying to teach anything. We`ve been really lucky with that, and he`s not a teenager. I feel bad for teenagers, although they just want to self-isolate anyway... We kind of hit the sweet spot." 
 
The actor also called her son 'a really good kid'&nbsp;who can 'entertain himself for a while'.
