While promoting their new Hulu series, the stars of 'Little Fires Everywhere' find out that they both have auditioned for the 1995 teen cult movie, but lost to its original cast members.

AceShowbiz - Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington joked they should "remake" 1995 teen cult movie "Clueless" after both stars failed auditions for the original.
In an interview with Buzzfeed to promote their new Hulu series "Little Fires Everywhere", the stars opened up on their experiences auditioning for the film, which starred Alicia Silverstone as the "Valley girl" Cher Horowitz and Stacey Dash as her accomplice Dionne Davenport.
"You know one thing that is public... is I auditioned so hard for 'Clueless' and I didn't get it," said Reese, as Kerry admitted: "I did too!"
While "The Morning Show" star Reese looked on in shock, Kerry playfully suggested: "That would've been a different...we should do, like, a remake!"
"We should recreate a scene from 'Clueless', that would be so fun!" the "Legally Blonde" actress exclaimed.
"Yes, with us!" agreed Kerry, as the pair hysterically laughed over the idea.
The stars surprised fans by releasing their new drama series a day earlier than planned this week (begins March 16), giving fans in isolation something to celebrate amid the global coronavirus pandemic.
The move in release date comes as the World Health Organisation (WHO) advises people to practice social distancing and stay home in a bid to prevent the spread of the virus.
