  • In a new interview, Coolidge said she wants to make a third Legally Blonde movie.

  • During an appearance on The Jess Cagle Show, the "White Lotus" star stated that he needed new material.

  • Coolidge says she's tired of being reminded of her Fourth of July joke.

The "White Lotus" star said she wants to make the third film as soon as possible in order to give fans a new joke to reference.

Coolidge said that he gets a lot of texts and videos of people doing the 4th of July thing. People send me funny videos from TikTokers and drag queens.

In a scene from the second "Legally Blonde," Paulette observes that Elle's patriotic outfit reminds her of the Fourth of July, and then admits that she's craving a hot dog. The line became a fan favorite.

Coolidge told Cagle that she is ready to move on and get a new shtick.

I would have something else if we did a Legally Blonde 3. Coolidge said it could be some other holiday.

I was okay this year. I'm going to have to insist to Reese that we make it this year because I'm not going to make it. I cannot do it. I'm not able to do it next year. I'm not able to. I mean what I say. I need something new.

"Legally Blonde" was released in 2001 and "Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde" was released in 2003

Over the past few years, "Legally Blonde 3," which will be cowritten by Kaling, has been put on hold. The film was delayed due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

In a recent interview with USA Today, she stated that she is still waiting for the third film to come together in the right way.

I protect them because I feel like they are my friends. She said that she wouldn't make a mediocre version of their story.
