Reese Witherspoon 'in talks' for Legally Blonde 3

The actress is "in talks" to reprise her role, according to The Hollywood Reporter, while Deadline said MGM is "near a deal" with the star.

Witherspoon made her name as the irrepressible law student in the 2001 film, and starred in the 2003 sequel.

The sequel ended with Elle setting her sights on the White House.

"It wasn't about [the characters] being good or bad, [the script] showed every spectrum and every color of women's lives."

The two Academy Award winning actresses are executive producers on the new show, alongside Jean-Marc Vallée ("Wild") and David E. Kelley ("Ally McBeal") and Bruna Papandrea ("Gone Girl").
