The 2024 Mean Girls is a musical reimagining of the beloved teen comedy, based on the Broadway show that grew out of Tina Fey's own 2004 film. Fey returns as Ms. Sharon Norbury, the wry, well-meaning calculus teacher and Mathletes coach at North Shore High, one of the few grounded adults amid the school's vicious social warfare. The story follows new student Cady Heron as she is pulled into the orbit of the Plastics, the ruling clique led by Regina George, with predictably messy results.
For the role, Fey wears a pair of Oliver Peoples Sheldrake eyeglasses, the OV5036S. The slim, keyhole-bridge acetate frame is a refined, intellectual-looking design that suits a smart, slightly weary teacher, striking a balance between approachable and put-together. On Fey the understated frame reinforces Norbury's part as the sardonic, sensible voice cutting through the teenage chaos.
It is a subtle, character-appropriate choice. The Sheldrake is built on classic, timeless craftsmanship, so it lends Norbury a quietly stylish, credible everyday look rather than a showy one. For anyone tracking eyewear across the film, this appearance is a clean example of how a refined optical frame can shape a grounded, likeable character. It is a fitting bit of continuity, too, echoing the smart, unfussy eyewear that has long been part of the character across both versions of the story.
The Oliver Peoples OV5036S Sheldrake is a classic square-frame sunglasses model crafted from high-quality acetate, defined by its bold front and keyhole bridge. Inspired by vintage eyewear, it features clean lines and a slightly rounded square silhouette. Typically fitted with solid or lightly tinted lenses, it provides reliable visual clarity and sun protection. The well-balanced frame ensures a secure and comfortable fit for everyday wear.
