Hold onto your pink handbags, because Reese Witherspoon just pulled off the ultimate Elle Woods moment at the Amazon upfront, and it’s giving us more excitement than a bend and snap!
Picture this: a 48-year-old Reese, channeling her inner Elle, struts onto the stage in New York City, accompanied by none other than Bruiser Woods himself. Yes, you read that right. Bruiser. In the flesh. Well, maybe not flesh, but definitely in the pink, fluffy glory that is Elle Woods’ world.
And what’s the big news? Prime Video is cooking up an Elle Woods prequel series! Cue the confetti cannons and the Legally Blonde soundtrack blasting in the background. We’re going back to high school, people! Think teenage Elle navigating the treacherous halls of academia, armed with her wit, her charm, and of course, her impeccable fashion sense.
But wait, there’s more! Reese isn’t just strutting her stuff on-screen; she’s also donning her producer hat, or should we say, her pink beret? Under her Hello Sunshine banner, she’s going to make sure this series is as fabulous as a spa day at the Ritz.
And who’s behind the magic? Laura Kittrell, the mastermind responsible for bringing teenage Elle’s adventures to life. With Reese and Laura at the helm, we’re in for a ride that’s sassier than a chihuahua in a designer purse.
But that’s not all the Reese magic we’re getting. Oh no, buckle up, because Reese and Will Ferrell are teaming up for a comedy extravaganza called You’re Cordially Invited. Picture Reese, the rom-com queen herself, and Will, the man who made us snort-laugh in Anchorman, joining forces to bring us cinematic gold. We can already hear the wedding bells ringing and the champagne corks popping.
And what does Will have to say about it? “As the rom-com king, I was able to give Reese a couple of pointers,” he quipped to the audience. Oh, Will, we’re sure your insights were as priceless as a pair of Jimmy Choos.
The Legally Blonde universe is expanding, and Reese is leading the charge with all the flair and sass we’ve come to expect. It’s a pink-tinted world out there, and we wouldn’t want it any other way.
