If you were to askDonald Faisonif someone else should play his character Murray Duvall in a reboot or sequel ofClueless, the movie that made him a star, his answer is simple: As if!
“I’m not a big fan of the remake, especially of something that I’m in, you know what I mean?” the 47-year-old tells PEOPLE while at Disney’s California Adventure theme park for Disney Junior’s Fun Fest on April 29. “If I’m in it, I don’t want to see somebody else playing me.”
The actor, who lends his voice as March Hare in the network’s animated seriesAlice’s Wonderland Bakery, starred in the 1995 movie about a group of wealthy, good-looking Beverly Hills teens who often find themselves getting into trouble.
The comedy also launched the careers ofPaul Rudd,Brittany MurphyandAlicia Silverstone, and it quickly became a pop culture phenomenon, starting fashion trends like Faison’s signature bucket hat, plaid outfits and thigh-high stockings. He reprised his role for three seasons ofClueless’television series before it was cancelled.

Despite his age, Faison hopes his days of playing his bad boy character aren’t over. If he has it his way, next time the cast will head back to the big screen. He even has ideas for where everyone would be today.
“I would want to say do another movie, to be honest with you,” Faison says. “Anything.Clueless2would be awesome and it’s not us anymore, it’s our kids. And now Cher is the Mel Horowitz character. I would think thatCher and Joshwould still be together, even though it’s a little weird.”
Though the father of six doesn’t know the exact holdup on the process for a follow-up, he’s thankful for the project that put him and his former costars on the map.

While Faison waits for a call to grab his trendy bucket hat, he’s having fun working on his kid-friendly project, which is a dream come true. “Everybody wants to be a part of something Disney animation,” Faison says. “To be able to do one of the voices on an animated television show, especially something likeAlice in Wonderland,that’s huge.”
