Coolidge, who is presenting at the Emmys and recently earned buzz for her performance in HBO’sThe White Lotus, said, “I’m going to ask her what’s happening with theLegally Blondescript,” adding, “I hope Reese [Witherspoon] and I are running really fast for most of it, we’re running from something really fast.”
