Schwartz and Savage are best known for creating Gossip Girl and are executive producing the reboot.
Weiss penned the screenplay for the highly anticipated sequel of Freaky Friday, Freakier Friday, which will see Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis reprise their roles.
This iteration of the TV show is set to be different to the previous one planned in 2020 by Peacock, which did not come to fruition.

That show was described as more of a mystery series, with the plot following the disappearance of Silverstone’s character Cher Horowitz and instead focusing on her friend, Dionne.
The upcoming show is not the first Clueless TV show to come to light, with a television adaptation of the film airing from 1996 until 1999 following the film’s success.
