She won over audiences as the pink-clad, legal savvy Elle Woods in 2001's Legally Blonde and its sequel.

And on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Reese Witherspoon confessed she would be interested in starring in a third film, the Daily Mail reports.

The 40-year-old actress threw ideas around with the late night host and Scandal's Tony Goldwyn, musing about what Elle Woods would be doing after taking on Washington, D.C.

The blonde beauty said: "It would be kind of cool to see her 15 years later, like, what's she doing now? But I need a good idea."

"Maybe like Kellyanne Conway," Goldwyn offered, suggesting Elle could be the counselor to the president or a campaign manager, "And maybe she's the leaker in the White House...selfies on the couch..."

To which Corden interjected: "Problem is, that sounds like a documentary. She could be the president of the United States."

"She could, she could be a supreme court justice, or a really great, powerful attorney... or she could be in prison!" Witherspoon joked, and concluded, "She could be anything!"

Despite Legally Blonde 2's scathing reviews in 2013, Witherspoon is not the only cast member interested in a reunion.

James cited Luke Wilson, who said to him in 2015: "That's why we need to do [a third film], to win everybody back."
