Alicia Silverstone Heads to TV for a New Comedy

Alicia Silverstone in “Clueless”

“Clueless” actress Alicia Silverstone is heading to TV. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Silverstone will star in the TV Land pilot “American Woman,” a comedy inspired by the childhood of Kyle Richards of “The Real Housewives.”

As THR reports, the single-camera series is “set in the 1970s amid the sexual revolution and the rise of feminism. Silverstone will star as Bonnie Nolan, a mother with two daughters who finds herself facing an entirely new world after she leaves her husband. As she struggles to raise her family, Bonnie sets out to claim her own brand of independence in a world not ready to give it.”

Silverstone was previously set to appear in a Lifetime series called “HR,” but the project did not move forward. She appeared in multiple episodes of the ABC sitcom “Suburgatory” in 2012. In addition to being an actress, Silverstone is also an author. Her books, “The Kind Diet,” and “The Kind Mama,” focus on health and environmentalism.

Richards was a child actress with a recurring role on “Little House on the Prairie” and also acted in John Carpenter’s “Halloween.” She is now most well known for appearing on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”
