Entertainment Weekly served up two mugs of coffee (probably from Luke’s) to Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel for the magazine’s new cover on the Gilmore Girls revival.
Fresh stories from Stars Hollow will hit Netflix in the near future, with four 90-minute ‘movies’ reuniting fans with the beloved cast.
Original producers Amy Sherman-Palladino, Daniel Palladino and their production company Dorothy Parker Drank Here Productions are all coming back for the revival. Alexis Bledel (Rory), Lauren Graham (Lorelai) Scott Patterson (Luke), Kelly Bishop (Emily), Sean Gunn (Kirk) and Keiko Agena (Lane) will also return.
“You know how you finish college and you’re a few years older and you’re like, ‘I wish I could go do this now ‘cause I would appreciate it so much more and understand it and get more out of it’?” Graham told EW. “That’s the opportunity I have this with and I appreciate every day that I’m here.”
The new movies will bring back many cast members, including Rory’s infamous exes Matt Czuchry, Jared Padalecki and Milo Ventimiglia. Other returning characters include Liza Weil’s Paris, Danny Strong’s Doyle, Yanic Truesdale’s Michel, David Sutcliffe’s Christopher, Emily Kuroda’s Mrs. Kim, Vanessa Marano’s April, Sally Struthers’ Babette and Michael Winters’ Taylor. Melissa McCarthy, who played Sookie St. James on the beloved series Gilmore Girls is reportedly not coming back due to scheduling conflicts.
