from Global News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Elle Woods is back—and this time, she’s sixteen, pink-haired, and ready to conquer Seattle’s grunge scene in the new “Legally Blonde” prequel series “Elle” on Prime Video. Actress Lexi Minetree nailed the role by recreating Elle’s iconic Harvard video for her audition, earning instant producer love. The show follows Elle’s chaotic, charming first days at a new school, where her bubbly personality clashes with the flannel crowd—until her classmates learn not to judge a book by its cover. Reese Witherspoon, who revived the franchise, hopes this version inspires young women to stay true to themselves amid social media pressure. James Van Der Beek joins the cast as Dean Wilson, and June Diane Raphael raves about his charm. Season two just wrapped—and Minetree thinks it’s even better than the first. And yes, fans: a third movie starring Reese Witherspoon is in the works.
