‘Gilmore Girls’: Netflix Chief Breaks Silence On Revival Talks – ‘Working On Buttoning Down Everything’

The reality of a "Gilmore Girls" revival on Netflix took another step forward on Sunday when Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos acknowledged the reboot and teased an upcoming announcement.

"I can't tell you much about 'Gilmore Girls,'" Sarandos told reporters at the Television Critics Association winter press tour. "We're still working on buttoning down everything before our announcements."

Early reports on the "Gilmore Girls" revival reveal creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and executive producer Daniel Palladino will write and direct the entire series, which will consist of four 90-minute mini-movies set in the present day. Each episode will represent one of the four seasons over a calendar year.

Photos shared from the Warner Bros. Studio lot shows construction already has begun on sets. The original cast members - Lauren Graham, Alexis Bledel, Kelly Bishop and Scott Patterson - are also in continuing negotiations to return, according to TVLine.

At least one of those four main leads will be getting a new love interest in the revival series. The logical choices would be Rory, who was last seen dumping her boyfriend Logan, or Emily, whose on-screen husband, Edward Hermann, died last year.
