Elle Woods is arguably one of the best movie characters of all time. Not only does she make a video essay long before social media and streaming were popular, but she also wears pink from head to toe while busting a murder case wide open. She's kind, funny, and possesses an inspiring amount of confidence.

Legally Blonde 2: Red, White, And Blonde hit theaters in 2003 and we've been anxiously awaiting news on a third installment ever since. Keep reading for everything you need to know about Legally Blonde 3, and keep checking back as we learn more details!

Whether Legally Blonde 3 is happening is more about "when" than "if." Deadline announced the script for the third installment in the franchise was getting reworked in 2020, and while we haven't gotten an official release date yet, we're over the moon that it's in the works.

"I'm still hoping that Legally Blonde 3 is gonna come together in the right way," Witherspoon says in a 2022 interview with USA Today. "[Top Gun: Maverick] 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. I feel like these characters are my friends, so I safeguard them. I would never make the subpar, mediocre version of their story."

What Will "Legally Blonde 3" Be About?

We don't have an official plot yet, but we do know that the writers are envisioning what Elle Woods would look like in her forties. Legally Blonde 2 ends with Elle and Emmett getting married, and insinuates that the couple stays in D.C., so we're expecting the opening of Legally Blonde 3 to follow where its prequel leaves off.

Who's Writing The Script For The Movie?

Mindy Kaling and Brooklyn Nine-Nine creator Dan Goor are writing the script. Kaling says in her own USA Todayinterview that she's very excited, and was hoping to pass it off to Witherspoon by the end of summer 2022. "I'm used to things where I'm creating original characters and to adapt the tone of a previous hit movie, that's a great writing challenge for me," Kaling says.

Is Reese Witherspoon Doing "Legally Blonde 3"?

Witherspoon is set to return as the iconic blonde — as long as her costar Jennifer Coolidge returns with her! This is one duo we never want to see apart. Witherspoon's production company Hello Sunshine (which recently worked on Where The Crawdads Sing and Your Place or Mine) has also signed on to produce.

We know that Coolidge is on board to take part in the film ("I would absolutely love to do Legally Blonde 3," she says in an interview with Extra), and we're hoping that our other favorites will also return, including Luke Wilson as Emmett, Jessica Cauffiel as Margot, Alanna Ubach as Serena, and (of course) the adorable Chihuahua Bruiser Woods.

Audiences loved the way Greta Gerwig's Little Women brought all four March sisters to life, and Netflix's Anne with an E became so popular that when the show was canceled after season 3, 1.7 million fans signed a petition to revive the series. It all just proves that classic adaptations can make the original story even more powerful.

And the newest movie based on a book is going to be one we think about forever — and not just because of its cast. Emerald Fennell (who you'll recognize from The Crown and her work as writer & director on Satburn) is adapting Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights and Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi are leading the cast!

The book, published in 1847, continues to grip readers, and it's become the blueprint for moody complexity — just like Emerald Fennell's Promising Young Woman, which won the Oscar for Best Screenplay thanks to its scathing look at sexual assault. Well, the Em's are coming together for this new adaptation.

Here's everything we know about Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights — and your first look at the movie.

Here's Your First Look At 'Wuthering Heights'

The first look at Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights is getting some seriously mixed reactions. The photo features a close-up image of someone (maybe Margot Robbie's) with their fingers and a few blades of grass in their mouth.

"CAN NOT WAIT," one Instagram user said, along with a couple fire emojis. But the intimate (and somewhat shocking) image also has some users asking, "what in the saltburn?"

Is Wuthering Heights going to be in theaters?

Focus Features

It appears director Emerald Fennell and producer Margot Robbie are pushing for a theatrical release, which is why they've reportedly turned down a Netflix offer of $150 million.

Despite the fact Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos said theatrical releases are "just not our business," and the company has stuck to at-home streaming instead, they did break that pattern for Knives Out: Glass Onion in 2022. The movie appeared in around 600 theaters the day before Thanksgiving, but left a week later ahead of its December 23 debut on the streamer.

Co-CEO Reed Hastings told The Hollywood Reporter that keeping the movie in theaters could have made Netflix more money, but later said they just wanted to "break through the noise" and get movie lovers excited for the film to come to Netflix.

All that to be said, Margot Robbie (whose Barbie made over $1 billion worldwide) and Emerald Fennell (whose Promising Young Woman nabbed her an Oscar win and two other nominations) know how to capture the imaginations of movie lovers everywhere. And it could definitely be in their favor to stick to a theatrical release. Stay tuned for official news on where you can watch Wuthering Heights!

Wuthering Heights Cast

The Wuthering Heights movie will be led by Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie as Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, respectively. Margot will also produce with her production company LuckyChap, which worked behind the scenes on Emerald Fennell's Saltburn and Promising Young Woman.

While some fans were initially excited about the casting, others were concerned about the fact that in the book, Heathcliff is described as "dark skinned." He also tells Nelly that, "I wish I had light hair and a fair skin, and was dressed, and behaved as well, and had a chance of being as rich as he will be!" Um, it looks like Jacob Elordi definitely has fair skin to me.

"Heathcliff is described as a dark-skinned brown man in the book and a major plot point is that he was subjected to racist abuse by his adopted family," one tweet (which has over 8 million views) says. "But yeah sure Jacob Elordi is perfect!"

Another says, "Film studios will say 'We are committed to diverse casting' and then cast Jacob Elordi to play Heathcliff, one of the more famous people of color in literature, whose race is crucial to both his character and the story."

Check back here to see who will play characters like Edgar Linton, Nelly Dean, Isabella Linton, and Lockwood.

Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights follows the Earnshaws and the Lintons, who are living in the Yorkshire Moors in the 1880s. Their lives change forever when the Earnshaws take in Heathcliff. Like any good dramatic novel, passion lies beneath proper connections, marriages, and societal expectations — and despite Catherine and Heathcliffe's feelings for each other, they have to choose between security and love.

The only thing keeping me from being upset about A Court of Thorns and Roses TV show being canceled is how well Hulu is handling it's newest thriller, Paradise. Created by screenwriter Dan Fogelman (This Is Us) and starring Sterling K. Brown, it's a murder mystery with dystopian undertones that explores what could happen if states become uninhabitable.

Besides feeling relevant to our current timeline, Paradise has a soundtrack that rivals Strangers Things and leaves viewers wanting more. Fortunately, Hulu got the memo and renewed it for Season 2 — thank goodness!

Here's everything to know about Paradise season 2!

What is 'Paradise' about?

Disney/Brian Roedel

Paradise begins in an idyllic community where homes are picturesque, streets are clean, and everyone lives in perfect harmony. However, it doesn't take long for the peace to be disturbed when the President is discovered murdered by his trusted Secret Service agent Xavier Collins.

Before long, he begins questioning the world he and his children live in while also searching for clues about his missing wife.

Who's in the 'Paradise' cast?

Disney/Brian Roedel

Paradise Season 1 has a stacked cast! Besides Sterling K. Brown, there's other familiar faces who help with the show's equilibrium.

  • Sterling K. Brown as Xavier Collins
  • James Marsden as President Cal Bradford
  • Julianne Nicholson as "Sinatra"
  • Krys Marshall as Robinson
  • Sarah Shahi as Dr. Gabriela Torabi
  • Jon Beavers as Billy Pace
  • Nicole Brydon Bloom as Jane Driscoll
  • Aliyah Mastin as Presley Collins
  • Percy Daggs IV as James Collins
  • Charlie Evans as Jeremy Bradford
  • Richard Robichaux as Carl

What's happened in 'Paradise' so far?

Disney/Brian Roedel

Wow, where do I begin?!

After it was revealed that the community he and everyone else lives in has been artificially created due to a disaster, the brief moments of unease Collins shows begins making sense. It's clear he and President Cal ended on bad terms before his death, but it doesn't seem like he was responsible for murdering the man he was sworn to protect.

What's odd is that Sinatra, the mastermind behind the beautiful community they live in, has been playing puppet master. She ordered the deaths of scientists sent to the surface to test the air quality AND she made sure Agent Billy was blindsided by his love interest's manipulation. Upsettingly, his murderer is none other than seemingly docile and clueless Agent Jane.

Viewers were also introduced to President Cal's father and were able to see how much he never wanted to be the face of the country. Though his father appears to have dementia, it's clear he feels guilty about something and may have seen who killed his son.

When is the 'Paradise' season finale?

Disney/Brian Roedel

There's only two episodes of Paradise left with the finale premiering on Hulu March 4!

When does 'Paradise' season 2 premiere?

Disney/Brian Roedel

Now comes the fun part! After getting the green light from Hulu to continue giving us heart palpitations, Paradise is officially coming back for season 2. Not only that, but the entire season will appear on ABC April 7 at 10:00 p.m. (via The Hollywood Reporter).

How many seasons of 'Paradise' will there be?

Disney/Brian Roedel

Dan Fogelman already knows what he wants to do with Paradise! He said, "I have a plan for three seasons of the show. Without giving away too much, each season of the show is a slightly different show, within the same show with the same characters," (via The Hollywood Reporter).

After Reese Witherspoon announced a new Legally Blonde TV show was coming to Prime Video, fans have been on the edge of their seats to see who would play Elle Woods. And, thanks to Reese herself, we finally have an answer, just in time for Valentine's Day. And our new Elle, Lexi Minetree, is the Legally Blonde casting announcement of our dreams.

Keep reading to see Reese Witherspoon tell Lexi Minetree she's the new Elle Woods!

Who is playing Elle Woods in Elle?

After it was announced that the Legally Blonde TV show had narrowed it down to two finalists, Lexi Minetree and Madison Wolfe, Reese Witherspoon surprised us all by posting Lexi's official casting to Instagram. "Allow me to introduce you to the new Elle Woods!" Reese says in the caption. "After watching so many incredible auditions for the new Elle prequel series on @PrimeVideo, we finally found our Elle. And today, I got to break the news myself! Meet @leximinetree 💕🌟💅🏼"

And TBH, no one is as surprised as Lexi! In the video posted to Reese's Instagram, the Big Little Lies actress welcomes Lexi (who's dress in hot pink, FYI) into a hotel room before telling her the Prime Video team had to make a difficult choice. And since Lexi had worked so hard, Reese wanted to tell her in person...that she got the role! Lexi immediately bursts into tears, which is exactly what I'd do, then calls her mom to share the good news. And even her mom admits that these two ladies sound just alike.

"Isn't it crazy?" Reese says over the phone. "When I saw her tape, I was like, 'Are we the same person? This is so weird.'"

We don't know much specific plot info about the Legally Blonde prequel series, but Reese did share that it'll give us a deeper look into Elle's teenage years. “I truly couldn’t be more excited about this series!" she says in a statement to Variety. "Fans will get to know how Elle Woods navigated her world as a teenager with her distinct personality and ingenuity, in ways that only our beloved Elle could do. What could be better than that?! Legally Blonde is back!”

What else is Lexi Minetree in?

You can see Lexi Minetree in an episode of Law and Order: SVU, as well as The Paramedic Who Stalked Me and Hot Take: Murdaugh Murders.

While shopping at Costco can feel like a total treasure hunt, you might just be making some major shopping mistakes along the way that put your membership at risk. If you’re looking to keep your grocery budget in order and discover only the best that Costco has to offer, you’ll want to keep reading for the most common mistakes to avoid when shopping there.

Before you embark on your next trip, here are 7 mistakes you don’t want to make at Costco.

Reddit

1. Going in without a plan

Costco is huge, so going in without a plan or a grocery list can turn overwhelming pretty quickly. If you’re not the type to get overwhelmed, then you probably get super excited about all Costco has to offer instead – and while it's so easy to go shopping-crazy and buy large quantities of items there, you should be strategic about what Costco items you’ll actually use, when you’ll use them, and more importantly, how to store them all when you get home!

Reddit

2. Assuming all prices are good

This one is a big no-no, especially if you’re watching your budget. Just because something is at Costco doesn't always mean it's the best deal! Smaller quantities or sales at other major grocery stores can be cheaper per unit, so make sure to check the posted unit price at Costco to ensure you're getting the best value.

3. Skipping the gas station

If you’re paying for a Costco membership, you don’t want to skip the gas pump! Costco’s gas prices are often significantly lower – so it’s worth filling up before (or after) each shopping trip. The same principle goes for more of Costco’s additional services like travel discounts, optical care, hearing aids, and the auto shop.

Reddit

4. Avoiding free samples

Sorry, but you’re simply crazy if you don’t indulge in free samples! Costco;’s free sample booths can be a great way to try new products before fully committing to bulk purchases. Plus, they can be a nice power-up during your shopping trip!

Reddit

5. Shopping in peak hours

If you also despise people-y grocery shopping trips, you’re going to want to avoid visiting Costco during peak hours. Costco can get extremely crowded, especially on weekends and weekday evenings. If you can pull it off, shop during off-peak hours (early mornings on weekdays) to avoid long lines and congested aisles.

Reddit

6. Forgetting bags or storage bins

Longtime Costco members may already know this, but if you’re new to the Costco life, it’s important to remember that Costco doesn’t provide traditional shopping bags. It’s a good idea to bring your own reusable bags or have storage bins (like boxes) prepped and ready in your car for easy loading and unloading. Oftentimes, though, Costco will supply the boxes from emptied products.

Reddit

7. Skipping the food court

The Costco food court offers some of the cheapest and most filling meals around. We could eat there every day of the week, TBH. When you take the $1.50 hot dogs and $3.99 chicken bakes into consideration, that’s pretty good. Don’t miss out!

Netflix has some truly incredible movies and TV shows right now (and considering Stranger Things 5 is coming later this year, it's only going to get better). But the end of another month means a whole new slew of titles leaving the streamer, which means this is your last week to watch these amazing series before they find another home.

Here are 8 titles leaving Netflix in March 2025, meaning this is your last week to watch them!

1.​The Mindy Project — Leaving Netflix March 1, 2025

Fox

This FOX comedy follows Mindy Lahiri (Mindy Kaling), an OBGYN who's doing her best to figure out a work life balance. There's romance, there's comedy, there's chaos. I wouldn't expect anything else from Mindy! And I love that the character was inspired by her own mom.

The Mindy Project stars Mindy Kaling, Chris Messina, Ed Weeks, Anna Camp, Zoe Jarman, Amanda Setton, Stephen Tobolowsky, Ike Barinholtz, Beth Grant, Xosha Roquemore, Adam Pally, Garret Dillahunt, Fortune Feimster, and Rebecca Rittenhouse.

2. ​Inception — Leaving Netflix March 1, 2025

Warner Bros. Pictures

If you want to go on a mind-bending adventure, then opt for this Christopher Nolan sci-fi heist. The movie follows a thief who uses technology to invade people's dreams and take information...if disaster doesn't derail him first.

Inception stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Elliot Page, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Tom Berenger, Dileep Rao, and Michael Caine.

3. ​Sixteen Candles — Leaving Netflix March 1, 2025

Universal Pictures

In this John Hughes movie, everyone's forgotten Samantha's sixteenth birthday...and that's not the kind of surprise she was hoping for. This movie is an 80s icon, but unfortunately there is plenty that hasn't aged well.

Sixteen Candles stars Molly Ringwald, Michael Schoeffling, and Anthony Michael Hall.

4. Scooby-Doo — Leaving Netflix March 1, 2025

Warner Bros. Pictures

Set out on an adventure with Shaggy, Scooby, Daphne, Velma, and Fred when a string of mysterious events bring them all to an island resort. But no, this isn't my idea of a vacation.

Scooby-Doo stars Freddie Prinze Jr., Sarah Michelle Gellar, Matthew Lillard, Linda Cardellini and Rowan Atkinson.

5. Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed — Leaving Netflix March 1, 2025

Warner Bros. Pictures

And once you finish the first installment, hop over to the sequel, which finds Mystery Inc. protecting Coolsville from a masked someone using all the monsters they've already defeated.

Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed stars Freddie Prinze Jr., Sarah Michelle Gellar, Matthew Lillard, Linda Cardellini and Rowan Atkinson.

6. ​Aloha — Leaving Netflix March 1, 2025

Sony Pictures Releasing

This movie follows a military contractor torn between a past love and an unexpected new connection. I don't know much about this movie, except for the fact it's been endlessly roasted for casting Emma Stone in a role that's supposed to be part native Hawaiian. Yikes.

Aloha stars Emma Stone, Rachel McAdams, Bill Murray, John Krasinski, Danny McBride, and Alec Baldwin.

7. ​Over The Hedge — Leaving Netflix March 1, 2025

Paramount Pictures

Revisit your childhood by streaming Over The Hedge, which is about RJ the raccoon, who gets a group of woodland creatures to steal food from the neighborhood to pay back a debt. They don't make movies like this anymore!

Over The Hedge stars Bruce Willis, Garry Shandling, Steve Carell, William Shatner, Wanda Sykes and Nick Nolte.

8. Love Again — Leaving Netflix March 2, 2025

Sony Pictures Releasing

Mira is still healing from the death of her fiancé when she realizes his old phone number has been reassigned...and she starts to form a connection with the person on the other end. Oh, Celine Dion is there too. Watch our interview with the cast!
