The ‘Legally Blonde’ prequel has its star! If you’re looking for a feel good way to start your day, look no further than Reese Witherspoon telling Lexi Minetree that she landed the part of Elle Woods—the role Witherspoon made so famous—in this Instagram video.

Elle Woods is bubbly, hyper, intelligent, gorgeous and loves pink. Reese Witherspoon is all those things as well, and it would appear Lexi Minetree, the actress set to play the iconic Legally Blonde character in the prequel series Elle, is too.
