Reese Witherspoon is patiently waiting to return to Monterey.
Nearly a year after costar Nicole Kidman revealed that season three of Big Little Lies was in the works, the Legally Blonde alum gave a brief update on the show’s progress, which includes some new material from the novel’s author Leanne Moriarty.
“Nicole and I have been waiting,” Reese told E! News at the Hello Sunshine red carpet Oct. 5. “We’re in waiting for Leanne Moriarty. She’s going to be turning in something very soon. We’re back to the original author and we’re going to go back to the original characters.”
“It’s exciting, too, because I think the kids are probably a little bit older now,” she continued. “So that might add another element. I don’t know yet, I haven’t read it yet.” (For more with Reese, tune into E! News tonight, Oct. 7 at 11 p.m.)
And while the ball seems to be moving, slowly but surely, Nicole admitted that she might’ve shared the news a little too early when she announced the next season last November at a Ladies Professional Golf Association Q&A event during the CME Group Tour Championship in Naples, Fla.
