“Fire Island,” with Bennett in the lead role, is slated for release on June 1. The film, a sequel to 2019’s “Last Ferry,” is billed as a horror film about a group of friends who get “caught in a web of sex, lies and cold blooded murder.”

Jonathan Bennett Will Always Be ‘Fetch’

When he’s not busy being what he referred to as the “gay king of Christmas” in a December 2022 story in Page Six, Bennett helps those in the LGBTQIA+ community travel the world safely with OUTbound Travel and serves as host of the “Pridecast,” a podcast that “encompasses and inspires” those in the LGBTQIA+ community by telling impactful stories from real-life experiences.

He is best known for his role in the 2004 teen comedy “Mean Girls.”In a December 2022 interview with Salon, Bennett said, “I owe my entire life, my entire career, to the film. “Everything about who I am today I owe to Tina Fey, Lorne Michaels and Lindsay Lohan.”

Although he’s been in many movies and television shows with catchy theme songs and unforgettable lines, there’s something about “Mean Girls” that he will never get away from.

“It’s not a regular movie. It’s part of people’s lives,” he said. “They speak it, they talk it, and they have parties for it. They dress up like it for Halloween. The lines in ‘Mean Girls’ are in people’s everyday vocabulary now.”

Bennett paid homage to “Mean Girls” by co-authoring the “The Burn Cookbook: An Unofficial Unauthorized Cookbook for Mean Girls Fans” in 2018.


On April 16, Bennett appeared, along with husband Jaymes Vaughn, as the celebrity grand marshal of Miami Beach Pride.
