As somebody who thinks concerning the 1995 movie Clueless most days of my life (particularly once I can’t discover something to put on that I don’t hate and begin eager for Cher Horowitz’s ahead-of-its-time on-line closet-organizer), I used to be clearly delighted to study that Cher was rumored to be headed again our means in a Clueless sequel sequence, starring none aside from Alicia Silverstone in a reprisal of her unique function.
I’m on the document as saying that we, as a tradition, are tormented by “too many reboots” syndrome, however this little bit of cynicism clearly doesn’t apply to Clueless, a film (and TV present, for that matter) that I’ll at all times need extra of. The movie’s unique author and director, Amy Heckerling, will government produce the brand new Peacock present alongside Jordan Weiss and The O.C. and Gossip Woman demigods Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage, which bodes nicely; however to be sincere, whether or not this reboot is sweet or unhealthy or someplace in between, it barely issues! Beneath, discover all of the questions I’ve about Peacock’s new Clueless sequel sequence:
- Is Paul Rudd coming again as Cher’s stepbrother-slash-boyfriend?
- For that matter…whither Stacey Sprint?
- Is Mel, Cher’s indignant lawyer father…useless on the reboot sequence?
- If he is useless, will I ever cease crying?
- Did Cher develop up into a professional bono lawyer? A stylist?
- Is her closet going to get, to cite my colleague Liam Hess, “a very cringe AI-era replace”?
- To cite one other colleague, Keaton Bell: “There are not any malls anymore, the place is Cher going to buy?”
- Is that this present inevitably going to be sponsored by TheRealReal or one thing? (Infinitely higher them than SHEIN, I assume.)
- Did Cher and Tai keep associates?
- Did Tai marry that candy stoner-slash-skateboarder?
- Did stated candy stoner-slash-skateboarder efficiently keep off weed after we noticed him donate his bong to the Pismo Seaside Catastrophe Aid drive on the finish of the unique film?
- For that matter, how will the present deal with the Brittany Murphy of all of it?
- Will the occasions of the primary Clueless TV present be accepted as canon, or ought to we simply neglect that occurred because it didn’t truly star Alicia Silverstone?
- Is Donald Faison coming again, and in that case, is he contractually allowed to look in something at this level with out his bestie and Scrubs costar Zach Braff?
- Is Cher a mother?
- I imply, she’s acquired to no less than be a canine mother à la Elle Woods, proper?
- Will we ever study extra about Cher’s personal mother, who “died of a fluke accident throughout a routine liposuction”?
- Will Wallace Shawn reprise his function as Mr. Corridor? (Please, God, hear my prayer.)
- Do we expect Mr. Corridor and Miss Geist’s marriage lasted?
- Did Dionne ever have her proposed sailor-dress marriage ceremony with all her bridesmaids in little sailor hats?
- Is that truly…kind of a genius marriage ceremony theme?
- Will the brand new present be set in Beverly Hills once more, or will they alter issues up and have Cher stay in Highland Park or Venice?
- Should you grew up in a mansion in Beverly Hills like Cher, do even the second-and-third-fanciest of LA neighborhoods appear mid to you?
- Will the brand new Clueless sequel sequence deal with the local weather implications of conspicuous consumption?
- Might Cher maybe have…misplaced all her cash within the prior or looming recession?
- Would a present a couple of non-rich Cher Horowitz even work?
- How on earth do Silverstone and Faison nonetheless look precisely the identical age as they had been after they filmed the unique film?
- Ought to I change into a vegan like Silverstone with a view to look that good?
- Might I truly stay the remainder of my life fortunately with out mini pigs in a blanket?
- Do they make vegan pigs in a blanket?
