Next month, ABC Family will be premiering the third installment of the Legally Blonde franchise. Making it’s television premiere, Legally Blondes follows Elle Woods’ cousins as they head across the pond from England to California to attend a prestigious prep school.
The original Legally Blonde followed Reese Witherspoon’s character Elle Woods as she attempted to win back her man by attending Harvard Law. Being a presumably ditzy blonde, Elle was out of her element at the Ivy League school but the challenge of law school proved to expose a side to herself that she didn’t know was there. The sequel, Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde involved Elle travelling to Washington DC and something about animal testing. It wasn’t worth rewatching, though I’ve seen the first one more times than I care to admit. For anyone looking for a refresher course on the first two films, ABC Family will be airing them prior to the premiere of Legally Blondes (starting at 4:00 p.m.).
This third installment sounds more like a spinoff to the series, however the premise does sound cute:
With a legal approach to life built into their blood, twins Izzy (Becky Rosso) and Annie (Milly Rosso) Woods share their cousin Elle’s DNA, including beauty, perfect blonde hair and fabulous fashion sense. But when the teens move from their native England to California to attend a posh prep school, they end up becoming the target of Tiffany (Brittany Curran), the school’s wealthy “queen,” and ultimately become embroiled in a campus trial. Put to the test, the two girls have to use the trademark Woods’ ingenuity to take the blonde fight to the toughest venue of all -- high school.
Legally Blondes premieres Sunday, August 2 (8:00PM – 10:00PM ET/PT) on ABC Family.
