'The Bear's Abby Elliott Reveals the 'Clueless' Star Who Wants to Be on the Show (Exclusive)


Abby Elliott says a 'Clueless' star approached her about appearing on 'The Bear.'

The 37-year-old actress spoke with ET's Cassie DiLaura from Thursday's season 3 premiere in Los Angeles, and spilled all the tea on the latest celebrity to express their interest in appearing on the Emmy Award-winning FX dramedy. "I talked to Alicia Silverstone and I loved her, and she was like, 'I want to be [on The Bear],'" Elliott shared, adding that as a self-proclaimed "diehard Clueless fan," she responded to the Batman & Robin actress, 47, "You'd be great on it." With several of those names now predicted to receive Emmy nominations for their guest-starring gigs, it's no surprise that stars are lining up to be featured in the hit show -- which follows an obsessive, compulsive restaurant owner working to get his Chicago eatery off the ground.
