Elle Woods Struggles to Find Her Groove in a Legally Blonde Prequel

The Hollywood Reporter’s Ang ie Han reviews Amazon’s Elle, a Legally Blonde prequel about a teenage Elle Woods relocating from sunny L.A. to Seattle in 1995. While Lexi Minetree channels Reese Witherspoon’s vibe and the nostalgic ’90s soundtrack adds charm, the show undercuts its premise with a flat setting and uneven pacing, feeling more like a business-friendly IP reboot than a fresh expansion. Promising ensemble moments exist, but it’s unclear if the series can sustain itself beyond the familiar premise. Airdate: July 1 on Prime Video.
