During an appearance on Lifetime’s Fashionably Late with Rachel Zoe on Thursday (October 22nd), Reese Witherspoon dished that the time for Legally Blonde 3 is now!
“I think we’re ready to see Elle and see what she’s up to lately,” said Witherspoon, responding to a fan question. “A lot of writers over the years have come up with different ideas for it. I actually think it’s kind of great right now because we’re talking about women in politics and how important that is to get more women.”
The 39-year-old Wild actress continued, “And I think it’d be kind of a cool thing to have [Elle Woods] be a Supreme Court Justice or somebody who runs for office, like president. With that said, I don’t know,” Witherspoon added, unsure if something is actually in the works. “Call MGM. I have no idea.”
Legally Blonde grossed $141 million worldwide when it debuted back in 2001, while Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde took in $124 million worldwide when it hit theaters two years later. The straight-to-video spinoff Legally Blondes premiered in 2009, and a Broadway musical based on the franchise debuted in 2007.
