Reese Witherspoon‘s blonde ambition will live on again — this time as a streaming series for Amazon Prime Video.

The Academy Award-winning actress, who rocketed to fame as Elle Woods in 2001’s blockbuster film “Legally Blonde,” has plans to revive the franchise for a new audience.

Variety reports that a TV show is in the works at Amazon, with Witherspoon attached to executive produce through her Hello Sunshine media company.

With no plot details revealed, it’s unclear if the 48-year-old actress will reprise her role as the pink-clad Harvard Law School alum.

The outlet previously reported that Amazon was seeking new projects to take on based on intellectual properties it acquired when it purchased MGM in 2022.

“Legally Blonde,” which grossed over $141 million at the box office, spawned two sequels, a Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical and other TV projects, including an MTV talent competition series.

Witherspoon, who went on to win an Oscar for her role as country music trailblazer June Carter Cash in “Walk the Line,” also produced the “Legally Blondes” TV movie that aired on ABC Family in 2009.
