Reese Witherspoon has shared her response after seeing one of her most popular films appearing in Netflix’s Wednesday as a horror movie.
Tim Burton’s new hit show centres on everyone’s favourite goth girl Wednesday Addams (played by Jenna Ortega) - you can see Witherspoons brilliant reaction to her micro-cameo here:
The new eight-part series only landed on Netflix on 23 November but it’s already shot its way up the streaming platform’s most watched list.

Among those who have tuned in to the new series is Witherspoon, who spotted her iconic Elle Woods very briefly pop up in episode seven.
For those who haven’t yet seen it, in episode seven Wednesday agrees to go on a date with barista Tyler Galpin (played by Hunter Doohan) who is smitten enough to put in the extra effort to impress her.

Tyler promises Wednesday a horror movie for them to enjoy promising that she’s going to be ‘horrified’ - but rather than opt for The Exorcist or Texas Chainsaw Massacre, when he presses play the pair are greeted with the 2001 comedy Legally Blonde. An absolute classic, I’m sure you’ll agree and I guess there wouldn't be much scarier for our girl Wednesday, right?
