W magazine rounded up four of Hollywoods top actors—Jake Gyllenhaal, Bradley Cooper, Seth Rogen and Paul Dano—to audition for the iconic role of Cher Horowitz in Clueless.

“What was unfortunate about reading through this for the first time,” Gyllenhaal says, “was that I realized that I talk like this. Which is a bummer.”
