A ‘Gilmore Girls’ Movie? Alexis Bledel Spills On Whether It Will Ever Happen!
We figure now that they’re on to filming a second “Sex and the City” movie, all our favorite defunct television shows should be up for grabs to be made into successful movie franchises, as well. At the top of our list? A “Gilmore Girls” theatrical version of course!
But before you break out your Luke’s Diner coffee mugs, Rory Gilmore herself, Alexis Bledel, wants to warn all those wishful thinkers out there that they should maybe wish a little harder for a movie to get made.
“I haven’t heard anything about that,” she told MTV News while promoting her new flick, “Post Grad.” “Like people ask but I haven’t heard a formal [plan for it]… I haven’t read a script.”
Okay so maybe there isn’t a script in the works yet, but would Alexis even want to make a movie? This answer is even more disappointing.
“I don’t know. I mean it depends on the script because I really liked the way they wrapped up with the series finale with such a nice conclusion to the story,” she explained. “The pilot started out with Lorelei trying to figure out how she’s going to finance her academically advanced daughter’s education for eight years and then they do it. They do this amazing thing together and she graduates in the last episode and is off to start her life and I thought it was kind of perfect. So I don’t know if I want to keep telling this story.”
OK, so let’s pretend for a second here that a script does eventually come her way and she does want to do it — Alexis would have some input then on what Rory would be up to these days then, right? “I imagine her working in a newspaper room somewhere just going after a story,” she said.
That’s exactly how we want to see her! Would you like to see a “Gilmore Girls” movie?
