Alicia Silverstone Returns for Clueless Sequel Series

Get ready to relive the '90s because Alicia Silverstone is set to don the iconic yellow and plaid once more as Cher Horowitz in an eagerly anticipated sequel series of Clueless, coming to Peacock. Fans of the original 1995 film are buzzing with excitement as this new project promises to continue the beloved story.

Although plot details are still under wraps, the involvement of Silverstone is enough to stir up nostalgia. This series marks a fresh start from the previously planned Clueless spin-off that Peacock had in the works back in 2020. The creative team behind the new series includes Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage, the dynamic duo known for their work on the original Gossip Girl and its reboot. They will be joined by Jordan Weiss in writing and executive producing the series. The original Clueless writer-director, Amy Heckerling, and producer, Robert Lawrence, will also be on board as executive producers, ensuring a connection to the film's roots. CBS Studios and Universal Television are set to bring this vision to life.

This isn't the first time Clueless has made the leap to the small screen. Following the film's success, a television series aired from 1996 to 1999 on ABC and UPN, starring Rachel Blanchard as Cher. However, Silverstone's recent return to her role in a 2023 Super Bowl commercial for Rakuten shows her readiness to step back into Cher's world, and fans couldn't be more thrilled.
