Since 2018, a "Legally Blonde 3" has been in talks to be written by Mindy Kaling but there has not been any timeline on when to expect the project.

"It's just like 'Top Gun': They waited a long time to make another version of that movie, and I loved the nostalgia piece they incorporated in it. So definitely that gave us a lot of inspiration about what we would want to do with Elle Woods and make sure that we had all those same touchstones that mattered to people (back) then."

She added: "I feel like these characters are my friends, so I safeguard them. I would never make the subpar, mediocre version of their story."
