Clueless Star Alicia Silverstone Sends Cute Birthday Message To Paul Rudd

[D J C]

 

Clueless star Alicia Silverstone has sent a cute birthday message to her good friend and Clueless co-star, Paul Rudd. For fans of Rudd – particularly those who didn’t have him on their radar until he appeared in the MCU’s Ant-Man franchise, it may come as a bit of surprise to know that he had a small but vital role in the 1995 teen rom-com hit, Clueless. At the time of the film’s release, Rudd was still working his way into the Hollywood limelight.

 

When Clueless arrived, however, few could have anticipated just what a hit it would be. Silverstone was in the midst of her strongest years as an actress during this period, gaining significant popularity after appearing in a music video by classic rock band, Aerosmith. Today, that hardly seems like a recipe for success, but in the mid 1990s, the band had a hit record on their hands, and Silverstone’s role as a jilted ex-girlfriend out for revenge received considerable attention. That degree of popularity was more than enough to attract audiences to Clueless, a coming-of-age tale about a group of spoiled Beverly Hills teens and their various high school experiences.

 

Though Clueless primarily focused on Cher Horowitz (Silverstone), her step brother Josh (Rudd) gradually became an important part of her life. The film sees the two eventually become a couple, and even today, Silverstone and Rudd remain good friends. This much was still very clear as Silverstone sent Rudd birthday wishes via her official TikTok account. The video is accompanied by a short but sweet message from Silverstone to Rudd, which reads: "Friends since forever [heart emoji] Happy birthday Paul!" See the full video, which Silverstone also shared on her Instagram account, below:

Rudd turned 53 on April 6, much to the surprise of many. For years, the Anchorman star’s uncanny ability to appear as though he hasn’t aged has been remarked on by fans and fellow celebrities alike. Recently, Seth Rogen called Rudd’s apparent inability to age “alarming”, jokingly pointing out that Rudd had been older than him when they first started working together. All jokes aside, however, Rudd and Silverstone’s continued friendship suggests that the chemistry they had together on screen was real, and that the pair have remained friends all these years despite never working together again after Clueless.

 

Oddly enough, Silverstone’s latest upcoming role is Senior Year, a comedy about a popular cheerleader who awakens from a coma 20 years later and returns to her high school. While some might consider this a return to form for Silverstone, the film unfortunately doesn’t include Rudd. Still, seeing Silverstone take on a film that involves high school will undoubtedly have many thinking about a sequel to Clueless. There’s been a lot of buzz over the possibility in recent years, but to date, nothing has materialized. Hopefully, Silverstone and Rudd can take the project on at some point in the near future.
