00:00Of all the movies that I've made, there is one that comes up more than any other, and that is
00:05Legally Blonde. And I think it's because of Elle Woods. 20 years later, and the character is still
00:12so beloved. On Tuesday, Reese Witherspoon hosted a virtual Legally Blonde reunion on her Hello
00:18Sunshine YouTube channel to benefit World Central Kitchen. What, like it's hard? Witherspoon was
00:23joined by Luke Wilson, Jennifer Coolidge, Selma Blair, Holland Taylor, Alana Ubach, Jessica
00:28Caulfield, Allie Larder, and Matthew Davis, all of whom played iconic roles in the 2001
00:34comedy. The event was moderated by Saturday Night Live cast member and fan of the film,
00:38Chloe Fineman, who previously reenacted the entire trial scene on Instagram.
00:44And isn't it the first cardinal rule of permaintenance that you're forbidden to wet your hair for at
00:47least 24 hours at the risk of deactivating the ammonium thyglocholine? When asked what line
00:52from the film fans asked Reese to quote the most, she was quick to answer the bend and snap.
00:57I think I dropped something on the floor that I need to pick up. So you bend and snap.
01:04Bend and snap and snap.
01:08She went on to say that the scene was supposed to be a full musical sequence that ultimately
01:12got cut out of the movie. We filmed that for a month.
01:15But a version of it did eventually come to fruition on the Broadway stage in the Legally Blonde musical.
01:20The cast gushed over working with Reese Witherspoon.
01:23My experience working with you, Reese, was unparalleled. And I learned so much from working
01:30with you.
01:31The stars were aligned so perfectly. And Reese, you were really like the guiding light.
01:35Coolidge laughed that Witherspoon was always so in character that she would forget her lines
01:40in scenes with her sometimes because she was so believable as Elle Woods.
01:43And I think her spirit is something that we could all use a little bit more of right now.
02:00And good news. We will get more of that spirit because MGM Studios confirmed that Legally Blonde 3
02:06is coming in May of 2022. For more on everything Legally Blonde, head to THR.com.
02:12For The Hollywood Reporter News, I'm Ashley Bellman, and I'll catch you later.
