There is going to be a musical of it and KC is too old for the part.

well she was to old to play glinda too when she was in college but that worked elle is about the same age as glinda was in college...ages are pretty flexable in theatre Updated On: 7/26/04 at 12:47 PM

I stopped reading the original post after the first few 'sentences'

I am not a grammar or spelling nut, but please make it readable

why?...i mean in the movie Reese Witherspoon was still a little too "old" but she made it work. and theatre is more flexible anyway.

Weve gone over this like 348761230593070136031 times already! Shed be great in it, but she passed on the script or so it is rumored.

she did not it hasnt even been discussed!! i was just thinking it!!!

[StickToPriest]

Posted: 7/26/04 at 1:30pm

It HAS been discussed to death. And she passed on the script, supposedly.

Posted: 7/26/04 at 1:31pm

xluckystar2107x, she was offered the role but no one knows if she took it or not. It was RUMORED she didnt. She wont do it anyway since she has like 4 movies, 2 concerts, 4 upcoming Broadway musicals, and a lot more. Take a chill pill. Updated On: 7/26/04 at 01:31 PM

I think it's wise she turned it down. She would basically kind of be playing the same character she was before. I'm sure she wants to show some versatility. The last thing she needs is to be playing the same character over and over.

I heard this Elle idea about 3 months ago.

But anyway, she looks too old to me.

If You JUST thought of this NOW it's going to be a BIG suprise to Jerry Mitchell and the rest of the creative team when they find out how much money they owe you ! :) CRAZY!
And yes it has been discussed to DEATH. She hasn't officially turned it down. She has said there would be no plans made till she could consult with whoever was chosen to write the book. SHe is commited to Alice in Wonderland right now.

M J R are you my soul mate LOL.

Lighten up folks...this poster is new and probably didn't know this topic has been discussed so much.

Yes, Kristin WAS offered the role, but no one knows whether or not she took it. She has so much going on in the next few years though, I highly doubt she would have the time.

I think that IF they can't get Kristin in the role they should offer it to Laura Bell Bundy, she'd be great!

[Al Dente]

Posted: 7/26/04 at 4:52pm

Ooh, I have another idea. Why doesn't Laura Bell Bundy just tell everyone that she got the part, whether she did or not?

[Elphie6689]

Posted: 7/26/04 at 4:55pm

I hope that Laura does get the part though. If they can't get her maybe Kerry Butler could do it, she'd be good.

I think Legally Blonde should stay as a movie.

why is it so difficult for people to understand that "elle" and galinda are practically the same age? if she wasn't too old for galinda, shes not too old for elle, who in fact, has graduated law school and is therefore older than galinda.
