Sabrina Carpenter may be a global superstar but she hasn't forgotten her Broadway aspirations. Carpenter was announced to take on the role of Cady Heron in Mean Girls on Broadway in 2020. She was set to join the show for 14 weeks, but her run was cut short after just two performances due to the COVID-19 Broadway shutdown.

Carpenter revealed during a recent appearance on the YouTube series "Chicken Shop Date" that she would be interested in taking the Broadway stage once again.

"Would you do Broadway again if the right opportunity came?" asked host Amelia Dimoldenberg, to which Carpenter responded with a smile and a shrug, "I would."
