It’s official — Cher Horowitz is back! Fans of the iconic 1995 teen comedy Clueless have reason to celebrate as Peacock has greenlit a brand-new Clueless TV series, with none other than Alicia Silverstone reprising her beloved role. From the return of original cast members to potential release dates, here’s everything we know so far about the Clueless revival show.
Is the Clueless TV Show Happening?
Yes, the Clueless sequel series is currently in development at Peacock. During an interview on Today on August 7, 2025, Alicia Silverstone confirmed that she is returning as Cher Horowitz and will also serve as an executive producer on the project.
“I think we’re gonna try really hard. The goal is to make it honor what everyone loves about Clueless and Cher,” she said. “We want to honor that, but also bring something fresh and new to it.”
Silverstone expressed that while they’re still in the early stages, she’s “really excited” about what’s to come.
When Will the Clueless TV Series Premiere?
As of now, there’s no official release date for the Clueless TV show. However, it is confirmed that the series will stream exclusively on Peacock, which has a track record of reviving nostalgic titles like Saved by the Bell and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Considering the project is in its “baby stages,” a premiere in late 2026 or early 2027 seems likely.
Who Is in the Cast of the Clueless Revival?
Alicia Silverstone is the only confirmed cast member so far. While Stacey Dash has publicly expressed interest in returning as Dionne, no other original cast members — such as Paul Rudd, Donald Faison, or Breckin Meyer — have been confirmed. Sadly, Brittany Murphy, who played Tai, passed away in 2009 and will not be part of the new series.
Fans are eagerly waiting to see if other Clueless cast favorites like Elisa Donovan, Jeremy Sisto, or Wallace Shawn will make guest appearances.
Who Is Creating the New Clueless Series?
The reboot has a powerhouse team behind it. Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage, best known for Gossip Girl, are set to executive produce. They’ll be joined by Dollface creator Jordan Weiss and Clueless original director Amy Heckerling, who will also executive produce alongside Robert Lawrence.
This creative team is committed to preserving the original film’s spirit while modernizing the storyline for today’s audience.

Has There Been a Clueless Show Before?
Yes! A Clueless TV show premiered on ABC in 1996, starring Rachel Blanchard as Cher. That version ran for three seasons and featured the return of several film cast members including Stacey Dash, Donald Faison, and Elisa Donovan.
Peacock previously explored a Dionne-centered spinoff in 2020, but it didn’t make it to air.
Has Alicia Silverstone Reprised Her Role Before?
This isn’t the first time Silverstone has channeled Cher Horowitz. She dressed as her iconic character in a 2023 Super Bowl commercial for Rakuten, recreating the classroom speech scene. She also appeared in full Clueless fashion during a 2017 Lip Sync Battle episode.
These appearances kept fan interest alive, ultimately leading to momentum for a Clueless reboot.
What Will the Clueless TV Show Be About?
While the plot hasn’t been officially revealed, Silverstone’s comments suggest a respectful yet refreshing continuation of Cher’s story. With the involvement of Heckerling and Schwartz, fans can expect the series to explore modern fashion, culture, and high school drama through a Gen Z lens, while staying true to the heart of the original film.
