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?
Yes! We need a movie! It has been so hard to understand how they could end the show like that! We all need some closure!
YESSSS! There has to be a tv movie! That show was the best! I’ve been waiting and hoping for a reunion for so long because i was so mad they decided to replace Amy for the last season! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BRING IT BACK and have lorelai and luke together (FINALLY!) but also have Rory and Logan get together!
I’m Almost 18 and have watched gilmore girls for years! More than anything gilmore girls makes me laugh, and one of the most comforting things of this world is knowing there is always something to make you laugh, and smile… sometimes even cry. Gilmore girls was that for me…No matter the day Gilmore Girls made me laugh! It helped me get through some really rough times in my life… which probably sounds crazy! I have watched the last episode now around 10 times. I think I keep watching it to try to find something that just isn’t there… I feel… Read more »
PLEASE !! Need more Gilmore Girls.. Would love to find out how their lives turned out… I hope Rory married Logan… Luke found happiness..
OH MY GOSH! Yes we need more!!! I wasn’t please with what happened with Logan and Rory they shouldn’t have been all or nothing. I feel like the movie should have them getting back together there perfect for each other and he has grown up so much from the begging. I miss it. MUST HAVE MORE!
Gilmore Girls was an amazing show. I mean, I’m a guy and I even liked it, that alone should say something. I feel as though a movie could help give the show a bit more closure because, in my opinion, a lot more could have been done at it’s conclusion if it could have had the time to pursue such twists. Even though it wasn’t extremely plot-driven, there were still twists, some more forseeable than others, and there could definitely have been more. Maybe the movie could chase down those twists or focus on the aftermath of the show’s ending,… Read more »
GG is by far the best tv series that I have ever watched. I can’t wait for a reunion show (give us some more Luke and Lorelai) we can’t get enough of those two crazy kids! I sure miss Stars Hollow and everyone in it, they were like my second family to my daughter and I . Please don’t keep us in suspense, give us what we are waiting for!!!! I’ll perk up the coffee and get comfy in my favorite chair, get writing Amy !
GG is by far the best tv series I have ever viewed. We have to have more Lorelai and Lauke (we can’t get enough) also I really miss everyone else and wonder what spin you’ll put on it-please don’t leave us fans in suspense much longer! I’ll perk the coffee and get comfy!
Yes, they should definitely make a movie to tie up all loose ends. I envision it starting out just as it did on the very first episode with Lora Lei walking into Luke’s diner, begging for coffee, Luke scolding her about her caffeine intake, setting the tone as it did back then. But, of course, so much has changed; their romantic relationship is starting fresh, with a more mature understanding of each other and of themselves. Rory will be home soon for a visit after her writing campaign tour with Barack Obama, followed by a 2 year stint at the… Read more »
I love the Gilmore girls so much , A movie would rock,
I would make so much money,££££££££££££££££££££££££££££
I am retired and I love Gilmore Girls. I have watched it over and over, episode after episode, and never tire of it. I would love a movie!
I think they should make a movie 🙂 That would be awesome!!!
Yes. Yes. Yes!! I need more Gilmore Girls!
OMG!! The writers, producers and people who made “Gilmore Girls” come true are unbelievably genius! Graham and Bledel are such great actress, it would be a dream come true for so many international fans if a season 8 or a great movie was made!! I think that after all these years if there are still so many fans screaming for more Gilmore Girls is because of the amazing series quality…. so funny, so interesting, so original, so perfect!! They should make a contest for fans to write the script for a movie, the best one gets to be produced (I´m… Read more »
I have been wondering what WOULD have happened… Obama won,where does that leave Rory,did she go with him or did she move on to be with Logan (i did not like him ) did Luke and Lorilia hook back up? did Jackson and Sookie have more kids or did they splitup? Is Lane and buddy STILL IN THE BAND or is Lane and the kids living with Mrs. Kim ? And where is Mr.Kim???? I think he should atleast visit his grandchildren!!!
