Actress Lauren Graham, who became a superstar in 2000 when she starred as Lorelai in the cult dramedy show, Gilmore Girls, alongside Alexis Bledel as her daughter Rory, is already talking about the new planned Netflix revival of the series. Hours after the beloved show announced its comeback, Graham was already taking to Twitter and interviews to talk about how excited she was!
As soon as the news of the Gilmore Girls revival movie series came out, Graham took to Twitter to express her excitement to come back to the role of Lorelai Gilmore, saying she would be returning to work with a jacket she took from the producers 8 years ago.
I CAN NOW CONFIRM: it's time for me, and this jacket I stole in 2007, to return to work.@netflix #GilmoreGirls pic.twitter.com/tBb07J9oO1

Besides memorabilia theft from her past in the show, the star spoke to TV Line about the upcoming project just as she was leaving from a table read for the Netflix revival ... and Graham could barely contain her excitement over how "alive" the project feels.
"Let me go back a day or two ago, when I walked onto the set for the first time. We had to do a camera test and... the house," Graham said, choking up when speaking about the new set. "It's on a different stage but it's... the house. Alexis [Bledel] and I walked onto the set together and -- I feel super emotional about a lot of it and I'm afraid I'm going to start crying at every turn -- but walking onto that set really felt like something."
Yeah, that's the cue to get ridiculously excited.
According to People Magazine, stars from RuPaul's Drag Race presented Graham with Logo TV's New Now Next TV Honoree award only hours after the revival project was officially confirmed and the actress, now 48, said it was her "favorite award" due to the fact that she has done "absolutely nothing to deserve it."
Hopefully we'll hear more about Netflix's exciting revival soon!
