In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Witherspoon revealed more details about the film, saying that she hopes Legally Blonde 3 will be "so much fun," "so full of fashion," and "so full of awesome feminist ideas." The Big Little Lies actress also dished on whether or not Elle Woods' BFF, Paulette Parcelle, played by the legendary Jennifer Coolidge, will be joining her on-screen. "It will have returning cast members. We just need to film it first. But that's my hope and dream for Legally Blonde 3," she said, adding, "It will be the return of Jennifer Coolidge, which is the greatest."
During a virtual reunion with the original cast in Oct. 2020 (via YouTube), the release date for the upcoming film was revealed, and if things go according to plan (you never know with production when it comes to filming projects during a worldwide pandemic), we'll be able to see Legally Blonde 3 come May 22, 2022.
