Legally Blonde prequel series ordered by Amazon

The 2001 film Legally Blonde followed Elle after her boyfriend Warner Huntington III, an aspiring senator, broke up with her because she wasn’t “serious” enough for that kind of world. This sparked the famous line: “So you’re breaking up with me because I’m too… blonde?!”

To prove him wrong, Elle enrols in Harvard Law School alongside him (“what, like it’s hard?”) and graduates top of the class.

The new series, Elle, will focus on the high school years that crafted Woods into the star we saw in Legally Blonde.
