Alicia Silverstone Returns for Clueless Sequel Series

As if fans could resist seeing Alicia Silverstone slip back into that iconic yellow and plaid. The beloved actress is reportedly set to reprise her role as Cher Horowitz in a highly anticipated Clueless sequel series, which will stream on Peacock.

The project is currently in the development phase with Peacock, according to Variety, and plot details are being closely guarded. What we do know is that Silverstone will be back as Cher, the series will continue the narrative from the beloved 1995 film, and it's being crafted by an impressive creative team. Notably, this new endeavor differs from a previously planned Clueless spin-off that Peacock had in the works back in 2020.

The series is being penned by the dynamic duo Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage, known for their work on the original Gossip Girl series and its reboot, alongside writer Jordan Weiss. The three will also serve as executive producers, joined by Amy Heckerling, the original writer and director of Clueless, and Robert Lawrence, the film’s original producer. CBS Studios and Universal Television are on board to produce the show.

This isn't the first time Clueless has made the leap to the small screen. After its cinematic success, a TV adaptation aired on ABC and UPN from 1996 to 1999, with Rachel Blanchard stepping into the role of Cher instead of Silverstone.

Silverstone's recent appearance as Cher in a 2023 Super Bowl commercial for Rakuten shows she's eager to dive back into Cher’s world. And who could blame her? We're all excited to see what new adventures await Cher and her friends in this fresh take on a classic story.
