MUMBAI: The Cruel Intentions star, Reese Witherspoon, has turned down the chance of making Legally Blonde 3 because she isn't interested in reprising her role as lawyer, Elle Woods.

The 37-year-old actress had played the ditzy lawyer in Legally Blonde and Legally Blonde: Red, White and Blonde, but will not be part of the third installment as per media reports.

Jennifer Coolidge, who played Elle's friend Paulette in the films, said, "That was Reese's choice."

However, despite Witherspoon's reluctance to rejoin forces, Coolidge had nothing but praise for the star, claiming that she made the movie a success.
