Confirmed: Elle Is Coming Back

On Monday, Deadline reported that Reese Witherspoon was in talks for a Legally Blonde 3 (but a REAL Legally Blonde 3, not whatever this was) and now we have confirmation from Elle Woods herself:

Smooth. (Side note: seriously, how fast is that floatie?)

Considering Legally Blonde 2 wasn’t great, the third installment could potentially be a disaster as well. But a lot has happened since then, including a full-blown early aughts nostalgia wave that has everyone lusting after Juicy Couture again and the Mean Girls musical, so the time feels right to revisit Elle Woods. The plot is also reportedly focused on “female empowerment, a message that hits at a fortuitous time in the culture,” so I’d say expect pussy hats.

This is going to be just like the first two movies, except funner!
