Mindy Kaling recently shared some details about the upcoming Legally Blonde 3, a project she is co-writing with Dan Goor.
Kaling said that some aspects of the film are "still in development," and that she does have plans for Jennifer Coolidge's character Paulette Parcelle. According to Kaling, she "loved" Coolidge's critically-acclaimed performance in The White Lotus.
"Obviously, Paulette was just like so integral to the whole franchise but once we saw [The White Lotus] we were like, 'Ooh, we really want to make sure that she has something really juicy to do.'"
She also spoke about Reese Witherspoon’s character Elle Woods.
"I've always thought of Elle Woods is like Reese's Avengers, she gets recognized everywhere in the world."
Witherspoon and Coolidge are the only names that are officially connected to the movie as of now, fans should expect to see a diverse cast of characters added to the franchise.
Kaling said,
"There's definitely gonna be a lot of new faces in the movie, reflecting the world as it is now is something that's really important to Reese, and so having there be like diversity is super, super important. You can definitely count on that."
The film isn’t the only thing the star has been focused on. She is also the creator of Netflix's Never Have I Ever and HBO Max's The Sex Lives of College Girls, which have been have both been renewed for new seasons.
