Stacey Dash and Elisa Donovan would like, totally be down for a Clueless sequel

While it’s been nearly 30 years since Clueless became a pop culture phenomenon, two stars of the ‘90s classic wouldn’t say “as if” to the chance of making a sequel. During this weekend’s ‘90s Con, Stacey Dash and Elisa Donovan opened up to Entertainment Tonight about the possibility of returning as their Clueless characters in a new film.
“That would be up to Amy [Heckerling],” Dash said, leaving the ultimate decision of getting the gang back together up to the film’s original director.
“Everybody seems to think that we have some sort of opinion or idea,” Donovan added. “I certainly feel like there is a real desire from fans and the public to see that.”
As to what could be the focus of a sequel set nearly 28-years later, Donovan looked at the potential comedy of the Beverly Hills High classmates all grown up in the world.
“I mean, I think seeing them as adults and in their lives as grown-ups and with children or without children would be pretty hilarious,” said Donovan.
“I think seeing them in the same community would be hilarious,” Dash tacked on.
In regards to where their characters would be in 2023, Dash imagines fashion icon Dionne as a “fashion editor of a magazine.” As for Dionne’s frenemy Amber, Donovan see’s her character’s adult self with a “very large staff” and “several ex-husbands.”
While there hasn’t been any signs pointing to a remake with the original cast (excluding the horrible sounding Riverdale-inspired CBS show that never made it past development), that doesn’t mean we haven’t seen a reuniting of sorts. Although lacking original lead Alicia Silverstone, Clueless got the TV sequel treatment only a year after it’s release, with Donovan and Dash reprising their roles for three seasons. Earlier this year, Silverstone tried back on Cher’s iconic yellow plaid set in a Super Bowl commercial for Rakuten, along with Donovan as the two re-created their debate class scene from the original film for the commerce brand.

Breaking: Out of work actors would like more work.
This. 1,000 times this.
and a land of 1,000 dances and 1,000 islands of salad dressing.
Yeah, wake me when Alicia Silverstone, Breckin Meyer and Paul Rudd express interest.
Just give me more Amy Heckerling movies, please.
I’m sure they would be down. I’m sure they have the availability. I too, would like someone to put me in a movie. Can you write an article about that for me?
Has there ever been a single one of these “actor wants work” stories that have been interesting? Maybe if there was decades of drama involved.
I wonder if the AV Club writers have some kind of weekly Outlook reminder that tells them to write one of these stories. Because the story about a supporting actor who was in one successful thing and wants to do it again seem pretty standard and unsurprising. They should see if they could get some sort of AI bot to write them since it’s not like these stories are based on AV Club interviews.Now if Paul Rudd said he wanted to do another Clueless and was ready to make time in his schedule for it, that would be interesting.
Are any recent AV Club articles based on original interviews or research? (Maybe some of the videos are. I’ve never watched one.)
Half the time I can’t even get the videos to play. So I stopped trying.
Half the time I can’t even get the articles to work, because it’s been broken up needlessly across 20 fucking pages. They’re probably really embarrassed by this and will get onto repairing it ASAP.
I enjoyed the original Bill & Ted 3 discussions, primarily because they made me think of an old Onion article with a headline something like “Alex Winter still bugging Keanu Reeves about making another Bill & Ted movie”.
I am making $162/hour telecommuting.

Stacey Dash to Star in Anything Offered to Her

But Alicia Silverstone is busy with that other dude.
Then what’s Rachel Blanchard been up to?
Please! There’s only so much of this juicy Hollywoo gossip I can process in one day!
Not gonna lie…. I’d watch it.
honesty is the best policy.
I would LOVE to see what Brittany Murphy’s character is up to nowadays.
Getting plenty of rest, I hope.
Man aint no one wanna see Stacy Dash do a thing other than sit the fuck down.
Ugh! As if!
Casting stacy dash would be a great way to ensure the movies failure. Unless you are making some far right propaganda movie, stay the hell away from that crazy.
It’s Stacey Dash, Kevin Sorbo and Gina Carano in
Jew-less
“While it’s been nearly 30 years since Clueless became a pop culture phenomenon”.
How about you shut your fucking mouth?
“I certainly feel like there is a real desire from fans and the public to see that.”As if!
If they can’t get Brittany Murphy to came back, they should just give up.
Of course you know who else would be interested in being part of a Clueless sequel?Mr. T, because he needs work!
Of course the two with no careers want it. In other “no shit” news…
Stacey Dash should give Ben Shapiro a call. Since that’s the people she’s chosen to associate herself with.
