Season One of Elle follows Elle as she navigates the tumultuous world of high school, where she encounters tricky friendships, forbidden romance, and questionable fashion choices. Through it all, Elle uses her family as a touchstone and forms an even tighter bond with her mother, all while growing closer to the Elle Woods as seen in the original Legally Blonde film.

Reese Witherspoon, Lauren Neustadter, Amanda Brown and Marc Platt also serve as executive producers. Julia Brownell and Eli Wilson Pelton serve as co-executive producers.

Stage and film director Jason Moore, who helmed Broadway's Avenue Q, Shrek the Musical, and the first Pitch Perfect movie, directed the first two episodes of Season One and also serves as an executive producer.
The original Legally Blonde film received much praise upon its initial release in 2001 and has become a fan favorite in the years since.
