Lauren Graham, who’s found new success (and a new beau, Peter Krause) on NBC’s Parenthood, has often sounded a bit pessimistic about the possibility of a Gilmore Girls movie. Now, it seems there’s a bit of hope.
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Graham was asked about the project’s chances and noted that there’s actually new interest.
Asked if a Gilmore Girls movie will happen, she said, “It might. What’s funny to me is that in all these years, no one ever talked about it except the fans. But now people with power, people who could actually make it happen, are talking about it. I think it could be good, but I wonder if we’ve waited too long. I don’t want to be walking around the town square with a cane.”
When asked if the Sex and the City movies might be a reason to stay away from the project, Graham said that she liked the first one. When asked to speculate about what the storyline might be, she mused, “It’s hard to say because the show was never very plot driven. That is what might be uncovered in a two-hour movie. You’d be like, ‘Wait a minute, they just talk and make fun of things. This is a terrible movie.'”
If you don’t want to wait to see Graham back on screen, you can tune in to the season premiere of Parenthood tonight on NBC.
What do you think? Would you like to see Graham in a Gilmore Girls reunion? Do you think a movie would be worth seeing?
Team Jess!!! I would Love Love Love a Gilmore Girls Movie!! I’m such a huge fan I have the seasons but I need more!
Gilmore Girls movie? I would love to see that happen! We (my mom and I) own every season and watch them over and over again. No matter how many times we watch Gilmore Girls it never gets old. Lorelai and Rory are like part of the family! Ha-ha. Words can’t express how in love I am with the show; I watch it when I need to wallow or just for fun! It will forever be a mother-daughter thing in our household. I agree that the show had no real closure. It left fans wondering what happened with Rory, if she… Read more »
I have all 7 seasons of the Gilmore Girls. I love the show and have watched all the seasons like three times. Each time I watched I was hoping that somehow the ending would change. It just didn’t end.. There was no closure.. they definitely need a movie or something to have a better ending.
I would love to see a Gilmore Girls reunion. I was thrilled that this past year I got to watch it at five every day chronologically, but I realized that they didn’t do all the episodes. They skipped many especially near the end of the run.
I sure hope Parenthood keeps on going because I love Lauren Graham and Alexis, too.
I see where a potential show of Amy Sherman Paladino was axed. What a shame. TV is so full of violence. It would be nice to have different types of shows besides Cops and Lawyers.
I would love a Gilmore Girls movie!!! 😀
I would love to see a Reunion movie of Gilmore Girls. I agree 100% with the first poster, Laura. There must be a Luke and Lorelai wedding.
i know several people, including myself, who would be beyond thrilled if they made a movie!! season 7 just didn’t feel like a last season, it would be so great to see everyone all these years later and find out what’s come of everyone. seeing the twins as kids instead of babies, rory doing some amazing journalism, luke and lorelai FINALLY really together….
I would LOVE to see a Gilmore Girls movie!!!! I watch the reruns all the time and always have wondered where would they be now! PLEASE MAKE A MOVIE, I would watch it and buy it 🙂
Yes, yes, yes! I too would see the movie numerous times and buy it on DVD, as would my daughters and several of our friends! I hope Amy Sherman Palladino and Daniel Palladino would be at the writing helm; I don’t see any other way of it being a true Gilmore Girls movie… and would we get, I hope, those last three words?
I own every season of Gilmore Girls and I love the show. I would definitely go see the movie (probably numerous times) and buy it on DVD. I just love Gilmore Girls and a movie to tie up all the loose ends (With Lorelai and Luke, Rory and Logan, Christopher, April, etc.) would fit perfectly. Only one movie though, no sequels. Sequels never turn out well. PLEASE consider this. I know every fan of this show, and there a lot, would go and see this movie.
I would love a gilmore girls movie ! I have all 7 seasons ! And a luke and lorelai wedding would be amazing (:
I would definately LOVE to see a movie. I have watched every single Gilmore Girls episode over and over again so I think that it would be great to add something new to my collection! I would love to see a wedding with Luke and Lorelai that brings Rory and Jess back together! I think a movie is a great idea and I don’t think that it has been to long at all!
I would LOVE to see a Gilmore Girls movie. The writing was beyond what other shows have done with the quickness of dialogue and the level of wit. It is truly missed!!! I try to get my fix with the actors new endeavors, but it never quite does it.
I love Gilmore girls I own every season and watch them alot. I think it’d be great to see a movie and maybe get some closure cuz the finale just left it hanging. I don’t think it’d be a terrible movie, there are alot of fans out there who would think it’s great. I just hope they don’t wait long eventhough I don’t think it matters how long they wait it’d still be great.
I AM SUCH a Gilmore Girls fan, I bought all 7 seasons and watch them ALL the time….I’ve seen every episode probably at least 4-5 times. I would love to see a Luke & Lorelai wedding, and the idea of them having a baby together is ok too….maybe a boy since they each have a daughter…..also I want to see Rory successful in her career after all she worked so hard her whole life for this, but I want to see her happy in a relationship too, whether it’s back with Logan, since like someone else said they had so… Read more »
