Clueless Movie
The film was released in 1995 and focused on a group of rich high school students, in particular, Cher Horowitz (Alicia Silverstone). Cher had a mission to boost Tai Frasier’s (Brittany Murphy) popularity. Cher definitely had her work cut out for her. The film also focused on the trials and tribulations of teen life, including love and dating, especially in Cher’s life.
The film was a success and it made many of the actors’ household names.

The Clueless reboot is written by Jordan Reddout and Gus Hickey (Will & Grace). It is teased to be Mean Girls meets Riverdale meets a Lizzo music video.

How does Dionne deal with the pressures of being the new most popular girl in school, while also unraveling the mystery of what happened to her best friend, all in a setting that is uniquely 2020 L.A.?”
