Alicia Silverstone has dropped some clues about the Clueless TV reboot in the works for Peacock, perfectly timed for the 30th anniversary of the classic 1995 film. Silverstone, who played fashion-obsessed Beverly Hills teen Cher Horowitz in the movie, told Entertainment Tonight the reboot will differ from the original. “I can’t wait to step back into Cher’s skin and her fancy designer shoes that will be gently used, of course, duh, because she’s evolved,” she said. “This is 2025, she’s not wearing the new stuff unless it’s sustainable or vegan. We’ll have to see how far we can go with that.” Silverstone, 48, said she was ”obviously excited" to reprise the role but never planned on it. “I wouldn’t wanna mess up this thing that we all love so much. We will do our very best to honor the original movie that we love and also bring something new to it. That’s the goal, and I believe we will execute that goal.” The reboot will be written and executive produced by Gossip Girl creators Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage, with the movie’s original writer and director Amy Heckerling.
