Prime Video has today released the first full trailer for their upcoming series Elle, the anticipated prequel to Legally Blonde that hits the streamer later this summer, and you can watch it below!
Elle follows Elle Woods – played by Lexi Minetree in the series, taking over the role made famous by Reese Witherspoon – 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 with 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.
Created by Laura Kittrell (High School, Insecure), Elle is co-showrun and executive produced by Kittrell and Caroline Dries. Witherspoon, Lauren Neustadter, Amanda Brown, Marc Platt and Brad Van Arragon also serve as executive producers. Jason Moore (Pitch Perfect) directed the first two episodes of Season One and also serves as an executive producer. Julia Brownell and Eli Wilson Pelton serve as co-executive producers. Bryan J. Raber and Asmita Paranjape serve as producers. Josie Craven and Jen Regan serve as supervising producers.
The Season One cast includes June Diane Raphael as Elle’s mother Eva, and Tom Everett Scott as her father Wyatt, alongside Jacob Moskovitz, Gabrielle Policano, Chandler Kinney, Zac Looker, and Amy Pietz. Recurring cast members include Brad Harder, Chloe Wepper, Danielle Chand, David Burtka, James Van Der Beek, Jessica Belkin, Kayla Maisonet, Lisa Yamada, Logan Shroyer, Matt Oberg, and Sharon Taylor.
Elle hits Prime Video on July 1st.
