If you were totally buggin’ about the idea of never seeing Alicia Silverstone suit up as Beverly Hills fashionista Cher Horowitz again, there’s good news. Not only is the actress returning for a new Clueless sequel series, but another familiar face from the 1995 film is joining her.

More than 30 years after the original film hit theaters, Clueless is getting a six-episode limited series on Paramount+, with Silverstone reprising her iconic role. Now,Breckin Meyer has confirmed that he’ll also return as lovable slacker Travis Birkenstock, and he’s pulling double duty behind the scenes as a scribe as well.

When will the Clueless TV show air?

There’s no premiere date yet for the Clueless TV series, but we do know where it’ll be available to watch: Paramount+.

What will the Clueless sequel series be about?

The new series picks up 30 years after the events of the original film, with Cher Horowitz (Silverstone) all grown up and facing a whole new set of problems.

The one-time belle of Beverly Hills is now a successful businesswoman and has a kid of her own, but when her daughter enters high school, Cher discovers that raising a teen is enough to make her feel clueless all over again.

Who will star in the Clueless revival series?

Alicia Silverstone will be returning to her role as the sartorially satisfying Cher Horowitz, Deadline reports. She will also executive produce the show.

Joining her is Breckin Meyer, who played skateboarder Travis Birkenstock in the original film, love interest to Brittany Murphy‘s Tai. Meyer confirmed his return during an appearance on the One Question podcast, revealing that he’s also joined the show’s writing team.

“I’ve been in the writers’ room on this show they’re doing of Clueless, a new version of Clueless,” Meyer said. “I’m in the writers’ room, writing on a character that I played 30 years ago, and trying to figure out what he would say now, and it’s really fun to just put it in my head and try to think.”

“We’re doing six episodes, and we’ll see what’s what,” added the actor.

No word yet on whether any of the original film’s other stars — Stacey Dash, Paul Rudd, Donald Faison,Elisa Donovan, Jeremy Sisto, and Wallace Shawn— will return to their roles. (Brittany Murphy, who played a lead role in the film, died in 2009.) Dash has, however, expressed an interest in returning to her role, especially if the project involves Amy Heckerling.

Who will create the Clueless show?

Gossip Girl‘s Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage will executive produce alongside Dollface‘s Jordan Weiss. And as if they’d leave behind the originator of the catchphrase-filled 1995 film! Heckerling will also executive produce alongside Robert Lawrence.

Has there been another Clueless show?

Yes! ABC debuted a Clueless TV show in 1996, which featured Rachel Blanchard as Cher and saw the return of Dash, Faison, Donovan, Shawn, and Caplan to their roles. The series ran for three seasons.

In 2020, Peacock previously considered creating a spinoff centered on Dash’s character Dionne.

Has Alicia Silverstone ever reprised her role as Cher before?

Sort of. The actress reprised her role in a 2023 Super Bowl commercial for Rakuten, channeling the classroom scene in which she memorably declared, “May I please remind you, it does not say ‘RSVP’ on the Statue of Liberty!” Before that, she also donned Cher’s iconic plaid yellow two-piece mini-suit with knee-high tights and mary-jane shoes in a 2017 episode of Lip Sync Battle.

What has Alicia Silverstone said about the new Clueless series?

In an August 7, 2025, interview on Today, Silverstone shared that she was “really excited about it.” The actress noted, “I think we’re gonna try really hard. The goal is to make it honor what everyone loves about Clueless and Cher. So, we want to honor that, but also bring something fresh and new to it. And I’m confident that we’ll be able to do that, but we’re in baby stages right now.”
