This Studebaker Is Basically a Street-Legal NASCAR that Competed in Mexico's Most Grueling Race

• Studebakers can be a bit stuffy. Not this one.

Logo text

Viewers first encountered Reese Witherspoon‘s Elle Woods in the 2001 movie Legally Blonde and its 2003 sequel Red, White and Blonde.

But when it came time to explore Elle’s high school years, specifically another outsider experience moving to Seattle, 25 years after the original film was released, the team behind Elle, the Prime Video Legally Blonde prequel that began streaming earlier this month, saw an opportunity to spend more time not only with the title character, now played by Lexi Minetree, but also with the characters around her in the form of an eight-episode series that has already been renewed for and completed production on season two.
