In May, Amazon Prime Video officially commissioned a prequel for Legally Blonde, titled “Elle.” The series synopsis reveals it will delve into “Elle Woods’ high school years, exploring the life events that molded her into the beloved character we met in the initial Legally Blonde movie.

The TV series originates from creator Laura Kittrell, who takes on the roles of showrunner and executive producer. Reese Witherspoon is also an executive producer alongside Lauren Neustadter via Hello Sunshine. Additionally, Lauren Kisilevsky and Marc Platt will act as executive producers, while Amazon MGM Studios will be responsible for its production.

Reese Witherspoon initially played the lead role in the first Legally Blonde movie, which debuted in 2001 and earned an impressive $140 million worldwide. The sequel came out two years later, while a third film, Legally Blondes, was released as a straight-to-video production in 2009 with Witherspoon serving as a producer instead of the main actress. A Broadway musical version of the story premiered in 2007.

When talking about Elle Woods potentially reappearing on screen, fans are proposing that someone related to Witherspoon could fill the vacant part. One fan commented on Witherspoon’s Instagram post saying, “Go ahead and give your daughter the role; she looks like a younger version of you.” Another user agreed, writing, “I can’t help but think that it should be your daughter.” A third individual took it a step further, encouraging Witherspoon to bend the rule of nepotism just this time.

Hey there! Just wanted to share some exciting news about a fantastic figure in the entertainment world – Reese Witherspoon’s daughter, Ava Phillippe. Unlike her famous mom and pop, Ava has chosen a different path, opting for modeling rather than acting. But let me tell you, I firmly believe that she possesses a hidden acting talent, considering her parents are both screen legends. And oh boy, does she look like Reese! It’s spooky (in the best way possible)!

Only time will tell if Ava decides to step into her mom’s shoes to play this iconic character.
