- The proposed Clueless sequel series, which had been in development since last year, will not be moving forward at the streaming service Peacock.
- Alicia Silverstone was attached to reprise her iconic role as Cher Horowitz and executive produce the series, alongside original writer-director Amy Heckerling and producer Robert Lawrence.
- Despite Peacock's decision, reports indicate that CBS Studios and Paramount remain keen on the project and are exploring options to find an alternative platform or streaming service for the show.
- Silverstone had previously expressed excitement for the series, stating the goal was to honour what fans loved about the original film while also introducing fresh and new elements.
- The original 1995 film, loosely based on Jane Austen’s Emma, has maintained a significant cult following over three decades and has previously been adapted into a TV series and a West End musical.
