While Lauren Graham<\/a><\/strong> has been celebrated for her roles in popular projects, like Parenthood and Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist, the 58-year-old actress is arguably most recognized for playing the spunky and independent Lorelai Gilmore in Gilmore Girls<\/a>.<\/p>\n Graham and her Gilmore Girls castmate, Alexis Bledel<\/strong>, who played Lorelai’s quippy book-smart daughter, Rory, honored the show’s 25th anniversary at the 2025 Emmys by co-presenting the award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, as reported by Good Housekeeping<\/a>. During her time on the red carpet before the Emmy Awards, Graham spoke about starring in Gilmore Girls, which aired its final and 7th season in 2007, during an interview with Entertainment Tonight<\/a>. As fans are aware, Graham reprised her role as Lorelai in the 2016 Netflix mini-series reboot, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life.<\/p>\n During the September 14 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Graham was asked whether she was going to be a part of the upcoming Gilmore Girls documentary, Drink Coffee, Talk Fast, which was previously titled Searching For Stars Hollow. Graham replied that she had not yet filmed for the documentary because the creators of Gilmore Girls, Amy Sherman-Palladino<\/strong> and Daniel Palladino<\/strong>, aren’t involved with it.<\/p>\n “I don’t do anything the creator of my show isn’t a part of, so, so far, no,” said Graham during the Entertainment Tonight interview.<\/p>\n The Hollywood Reporter <\/a>reported that several Gilmore Girls stars, including Kelly Bishop,\u00a0Jared Padalecki<\/a>,\u00a0Kathleen Wilhoite, Keiko Agena, Sally Struthers, Liz Torres, Emily Kuroda, Rose Abdoo, Matt Jones, Grant Lee Phillip<\/strong>, and\u00a0Chad Michael Murray<\/a><\/strong>,\u00a0will appear in Drink Coffee, Talk Fast. A few of the show’s crew members, such as Stan Zimmerman, who was a writer and producer for Gilmore Girls, director Jamie Babbit, and casting directors Jami Rudofsky and Mara Casey, were also interviewed for the project, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter.<\/p>\n In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, one of the documentary producers, Jim Demonakos, explained that Drink Coffee, Talk Fast “will reveal how\u00a0Gilmore Girls\u00a0came to life, why it continues to resonate across generations, and how its unique blend of humor, heart and pop culture shaped a devoted worldwide fan community with an in-depth look at its creation and the connections it continues to foster.”<\/p>\n “This documentary is for fans of the show but also for anyone with an interest in cultural history and how it affects individual lives,” stated Demonakos.<\/p>\n In another statement, Meghna Balakumar, who co-directed the upcoming documentary with Kevin Konrad Hanna, said that they have “shot more than 100 hours of footage and have already unearthed stories, commentary, critiques, and more.”<\/p>\n “And we\u2019re continuing to shoot more interviews [with the Gilmore Girls cast and crew] in the coming months to present the most complete, full and truly new story of the show\u2019s impact and legacy that is only possible at this historical moment,” stated Balakumar, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter.<\/p>\n While speaking to Entertainment Tonight at the red carpet for the 2025 Emmy Awards, Graham shared why she believed Gilmore Girls has had such a devoted fanbase, nearly two decades after the original show ended. The actress credited the show’s fun, fast-paced dialogue and the bond between Lorelai and Rory as to why fans are still obsessed.<\/p>\n “I think it’s the incredible writing that kind of meets you no matter what age you are. You keep rediscovering the language. And I think it’s the relationship at the core because who doesn’t want to be best friends with their mom and their kid,” said Graham to the publication.<\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Sep 15, 2025, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
