On Prime Video
A warm, playful high school prequel that mines comedy and teenage romance from the formative years of an iconic character, grounded in 1990s nostalgia.
Before Elle Woods was a fish-out-of-water at Harvard, we meet her in 1995 in the tumultuous waters of high school where she encounters tricky friendships, forbidden romance, and questionable fashion choices. In this unexpected chapter of her adolescence, we learn about the experiences that shaped Elle into the iconic young woman we've come to know and love.
