Alicia Silverstone is set to reprise her role as Cher Horowitz in the upcoming Clueless reboot series, currently in development by Gossip Girl creators Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage. The original 1990s classic is being revived for 2025, and Silverstone has revealed that her character will reflect a more modern and environmentally conscious lifestyle.
How Cher’s Character Will Reflect Changing Values
In a recent interview, Alicia Silverstone explained that Cher’s fashion sense will be updated to align with sustainable and vegan principles. The actress highlighted how the reboot will portray Cher as more evolved, with an emphasis on wearing “gently used” designer shoes instead of brand new items. This reflects both the character’s growth and Silverstone’s own lifestyle choices, making the reboot relevant to today’s environmental concerns.
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 told ET.
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.

Balancing Nostalgia and Fresh Perspectives
While the series is still in its early stages, Silverstone emphasized the team’s goal to respect the beloved original film while introducing new elements to appeal to contemporary viewers. She expressed cautious optimism about preserving the spirit of the classic story as the creative team, including writer Jordan Weiss, continues development at Peacock, where the original movie is available to stream.
It’s very early stages. I’m obviously excited. I never thought that was something that I would ever do because I wouldn’t wanna mess up this thing that we all love so much,
Silverstone said.
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.
