She Knows says that Ben Affleck could have played the loveable character Josh.

Many of us have probably seen Paul Rudd in more recent roles and then realized that, of course, he was in Clueless. It's tough to think that this could have been another actor. Paul Rudd just works as Josh.

19 Paul Rudd Improvised The Hilarious Line “I’m Totally Buggin’ Myself"

Vulture says that Paul Rudd improved the hilarious line "I'm totally buggin' myself." We can definitely recall when he said this and it was awesome.

18 Fox Turned Down The Movie And Didn't Think It Would Do Well

Marie Claire says that Fox turned down the movie and didn't think that it would do well.

Alicia Silverstone said, "They were like, ‘We don’t think anybody is going to care. It’s not going to sell tickets.’” We can't believe this. It's such a popular movie these days that we never would have thought this.

17 The Actors Were Super Confused By The Trendy Words (Like Buggin' And Baldwin)

Buzzfeed says that the actors were confused by the trendy words. Some of these include buggin', which according to The Daily Beast means "freaked out, upset, at a loss, confused." The website also explains that when the characters say that someone is a Baldwin, that means "A handsome or gorgeous man" (like the Baldwin actors).

16 Fox Was Interested In Casting Tiffani Thiessen And Keri Russell As Cher

Both Tiffani Thiessen and Keri Russell have had successful TV careers, with the former starring in Beverly Hills, 90210 and the latter holding main roles in Felicity and, more recently, The Americans.

15 Cher Actually Has Two Last Names: Hamilton & Horowitz

Don't we always think that Cher's last name is Horowitz?

Well, Metro.co.uk says that Cher has two last names. The publication explains, "In the scene with the report card, Cher’s surname is Hamilton. In the classroom, and popular culture, however, it’s Horowitz." This is a fascinating piece of behind-the-scenes information about Clueless.

14 Stacey Dash Was Actually 27 (And Had A Kid) When Cast As Dionne

Buzzfeed says that Stacey Dash was actually 27 when she was cast as Dionne, the best friend of Cher. More than that, she even had a kid (a son who was six years old at the time).

She does look the part of a trendy and stylish high schooler, so we'd say that the casting worked.

13 "Going Postal" Wasn't Originally In The Script, But Someone Who Worked On The Movie Set Said It

Hollywood Reporter says that "going postal," which fans remember as a pretty famous piece of slang from the movie, was never in the script. Instead, someone who worked on the movie said it.

It's so cool to hear that that's how this got into the film. It fits perfectly.

12 Alicia Silverstone Hated Cher's Wardrobe

We would think that an actress playing Cher would have tons of fun with her outfits. She wears amazing, iconic outfits.

11 Writer/Director Amy Heckerling Based Josh And Cher On Her Actual Grandparents

Metro.co.uk says that writer/director Amy Heckerling based Josh and Cher on her actual grandparents. They were step-siblings.

We bet that's why the movie is so great. When a writer can tune into their personal experience, it can be so emotional and powerful. And Josh and Cher have such an interesting love story.
