For those concerned about whether or not Legal Blonde 3 will live up to the legendary original – don’t fret! According to Mindy Kaling, who is currently writing the script with Dan Goor, the inventor of Brooklyn Nine-Nine, there is sure to be a bit of bend and snap.
In an interview with Access, The Office alum revealed some details about the romantic comedy upcoming sequel. “I love the franchise so much,” said Kaling. “I love Elle Woods as a character and when Reese asked me to write it I said, ‘Absolutely! ‘”
Kaling added that she can’t wait for people to see Reese Witherspoon as Elle Woods at 40 versus 21. She said it was “really fun” to imagine.
When we can expect the movie, the fans have to be patient because we are in a pandemic and making films has been a challenge. Kaling said, “I don’t know when we’ll be able to make movies again, but it would be great if Reese likes the script it would be great to do it this year.”
With Kaling’s excitement and love of rom-coms, Legally Blonde 3 seems to be in good hands. Since she’s such a fan of the original, we can definitely expect some nod to Elle’s genesis – including the memorable “Bend and Snap”.
“Bend and Snap is forever,” Kaling admitted. “We definitely have a lot of fan favorites from the original film.”
