Classic '90s comedy movie "Clueless" is getting a remake.

"Girls Trip" writer Tracy Oliver has been tapped to produce, while "Glow" writer Marquita Robinson will pen the script for the Paramount Pictures project, reported Deadline.

Directed and written by Amy Heckerling, the 1995 original was loosely based on Jane Austen's 1815 novel, "Emma".

The film featured Alicia Silverstone as privileged Beverly Hills high school student along with Cher, Paul Rudd, Breckin Meyer, Jeremy Sisto, Stacey Dash and the late Brittany Murphy.

It is unclear if the new version will include former characters reprising their roles. The remake news comes as "Clueless, The Musical" is set to make its Off-Broadway debut.
