Blonde goes grunge in the all-new trailer for Prime Video’s ‘Elle’
On the cusp of its 25 year anniversary, Legally Blonde is more iconic than ever, with the character of Reese Witherspoon’s super fab Elle Woods resonating with women across the generations, and now Prime Video and Hello Sunshine are ready to turn the clock back as these step back to the mid-90s and lock in on Elle’s origin in Prime Video’s Elle…. and if Elle thought Harvard was hard, High School was an altogether different struggle.
Watch the all-new trailer for Elle below:
Season One of Elle follows Elle Woods before she was a fish-out-of-water at Harvard. We meet her in 1995 as a fish in the tumultuous waters of high school where she encounters tricky friendships, forbidden romance, and questionable fashion choices. Through it all, Elle uses her family as a touchstone, and forms an even tighter bond to her mother, proving that they can get through anything life throws their way as long as they have each other. With each challenge she faces, Elle grows closer to the Elle Woods we know and love today.
Building on from the previous trailer, this new look at Elle takes audiences further into her journey as she has to navigate the journey from sunny Bel Air to anti-establishment, grunge Seattle, and pink just ain’t on the menu this time. Fighting peer pressure hormones, home sickness, and desperately trying to find her place in the world, it’s a lot to take on for Elle, and just like Legally Blonde this new series is an exercise in self-belief and discovery and young Elle is going to undergo quite a chance, all while never straying from her blonde, pink, and plain fabulous identity.
