'Clueless' Sequel Series With Alicia Silverstone Ordered at Paramount+

Key Points:

• The “Clueless” sequel series, starring Alicia Silverstone reprising her role as Cher Horowitz, has been greenlit by Paramount+ with a six-episode order and is set to begin production in Los Angeles in 2027.
• Originally developed for Peacock in early 2025 but later dropped, the project will now be produced solely by Paramount-owned CBS Studios, keeping the series in-house since the original 1995 film was released by Paramount Pictures.
• The series is set in the present day and follows Cher as a successful businesswoman and mother navigating the challenges of parenting a teenager, with the show written and executive produced by Josh Schwartz, Stephanie Savage, Jordan Weiss, and Amy Heckerling.
• Paramount+ is expanding its female-skewing content lineup under Cindy Holland’s leadership, with “Clueless” joining other commissioned projects like “Discretion” and “Fear Not.”
• The original “Clueless” film, a box office hit and pop culture classic loosely based on Jane Austen’s “Emma,” was recently added to the U.S. National Film Registry, highlighting its cultural significance.
