Mindy Kaling on Her ‘The Office’ Legacy, the Status of ‘Legally Blonde 3’ and Planning a Return to Acting


Mindy Kaling on her new Netflix series 'Running Point,' the status of 'Legally Blonde 3' and why she's ready to get back In front of the camera.

After both writing and starring in “The Office” and “The Mindy Project” (which she also created) early in her career, Kaling took a break from acting in recent years to focus on building a string of successful TV series — not to mention raising three young kids. She already has plenty on her plate, starting with her upcoming Netflix show “ Running Point,” which stars Kate Hudson as the ambitious new president of her family’s basketball team (inspired by the real-life Los Angeles Lakers boss Jeannie Buss). There’s a lot of elements of “Running Point” that will seem similar to the things I’ve written — like an ambitious woman of a certain age, single, glamorous life, and it’s set in a workplace.
