Selma Blair to Play Wicked Stepmother in 'Heathers' TV Reboot
What a wicked stepmother you are, Selma Blair.
The actress has signed on for a recurring role in the upcoming "Heathers" TV reboot on the Paramount Network. She'll play the gold-digging stepmother to Heather Duke (Brendan Scannell). Jade is a menthol-smoking stripper who's just waiting for her 82-year-old husband to die.
The 10-episode reboot is loosely based on the 1988 dark comedy that starred Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, and Shannen Doherty (who is set to appear in the new series in a mysterious role).
New girl Veronica Sawyer (Grace Victoria Cox) encounters a new group of mean girls who reign supreme over the school. Jasmine Matthews and Melanie Field play the other two Heathers.
"Heathers" will premiere on the Paramount Network (formerly Spike TV) in 2018.
