Elle Woods is heading back to school, and you bet she’s bringing all the sass and glam with her. Fans of the Legally Blonde films will soon be introduced to a younger version of the iconic, pink-loving, quick-witted lawyer in the upcoming prequel series, Elle. The series, executive produced by Reese Witherspoon, who originally brought the character to life in the 2001 romantic comedy classic, now has an official release window. Elle is set to debut this summer, as announced during Prime Video’s upfront presentation in New York City.
