Broadway's original Elle Woods, Laura Bell Bundy, is set to take on the role of Ginger Gladstone, wife to Joey and mother to their four children in the upcoming season of Fuller House on Netflix. According to Bundy's Instagram confirming her role, the four munchkins are singers, so perhaps we can expect a musical episode in the show's future?
Bundy last starred on Broadway as Elle Woods in Legally Blonde. Other main stem appearances include Glinda in Wicked, and originating the role of Amber in Hairspray. Recently, Bundy has appeared on Fox's SCREAM Queens.
In the spinoff series, Fuller House, the adventures that began in 1987 on Full House continue, with veterinarian D.J. Tanner-Fuller (Candace Cameron-Bure) recently widowed and living in San Francisco. D.J.'s younger sister/aspiring musician Stephanie Tanner (Jodie Sweetin) and D.J.'s lifelong best friend/fellow single mother Kimmy Gibbler (Andrea Barber), along with Kimmy's feisty teenage daughter Ramona, all move in to help take care of D.J.'s three boys - the rebellious 12-year-old Jackson, neurotic 7-year-old Max and her newborn baby, Tommy Jr.
Fuller House stars Candace Cameron Bure as D.J. Tanner-Fuller, Jodie Sweetin as Stephanie Tanner, Andrea Barber as Kimmy Gibbler, Juan Pablo Di Pace as Fernando, Soni Nicole Bringas as Romona, Michael Campion as Jackson, Elias Harger as Max, Dashiell and FOX Messitt Twins as Baby Tommy, Scott Weinger as Steve Hale, John Brotherton as Matt Harmon, and Ashley Liao as Lola.Check out Bundy's announcement Instagram and a cute shot from one of her onscreen kids below!
