Luke and Lorelai fans can jump for joy because the couple is definitely still together after all these years!! (Jumping for joy right now!)
Scott Patterson who played Luke on the Gilmore Girls told PEOPLE on Wednesday that he “can’t share much” about the show’s Netflix revival, he can confirm that set photos of him and actress Lauren Graham holding hands are exactly what they seem.
“I can tell you that we are together,we are together and we’re sort of figuring out our next step.”
As for the baby speculation, he didn’t answer that million dollar question.
The actor did talk about what it was like going be to Stars Hollow after all these years and reuniting with his old cast mates.
“That came immediately, that’s never been an issue,” Patterson says of getting back into a rhythm. “That’s part of why the show is so successful I mean, [creator Amy Sherman-Palladino] cast the right people.”
Getting back into character as Luke wasn’t quite as seamless, though, Patterson reveals.
“My first rehearsal, I just struggled – I was like, ‘I don’t feel this guy anymore, I went to Amy and I said, I don’t feel this, I got to walk around Stars Hollow. I gotta walk around the set and get the old feeling back.’ So I did. I took about a 10-minute walk, I went through the town and I got it. I felt ready. And I came back in and rehearsed the scene and I thought, ‘I’ve got him.’ “
What can fans expect from the four-part revival? For one thing, Patterson says, a moving tribute to the late Edward Herrmann, a.k.a. Richard Gilmore, who died at 71 in 2014.
“Losing Ed, it left just a gaping hole and it was so tragic and so shocking to lose him,” Patterson says. “But as far as the storytelling was concerned, it really deepened the scripts and affected the tone of a lot of it – and especially our characters and how we related to one another.”
He adds, “On the first day on the Gilmore house set, there were some things there that nobody had seen before that we saw that were so moving, that we all kind of had to sit down … Fans are going to be very touched by how Amy has shown her respect and paid her homage to him.”
All this Gilmore Girls news…I have to go watch an episode now!
