To partner with Roku to reunite the cast and produce this special with Lauren, Stephen & Kristin as Executive Producers 20 years later is a dream.”
Cavallari also reflected on reconnecting with old castmates during a podcast tour.
On “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” she joked, “When you get your whole high school crew together, everyone gets nervous, everyone starts drinking. I felt like I was back in high school.”
