Although Lauren Graham has been busy with Disney+’s new The Mighty Ducks reboot series and previously NBC’s Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist, the Gilmore Girls alum has weighed in on the prospect on working with Amy Sherman-Palladino, who created Gilmore Girls, once again on a different series.
With filming wrapped on the first season of The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers, and having left Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist for the time being, could Lauren Graham already be getting ready for another TV project? She does already have a connection with one particular series via Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino. Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel was created by Sherman-Palladino. Graham told TVLine her thoughts on appearing on the Amazon series for a reunion with Sherman-Palladino. Graham explained:
I don’t know about Maisel. I sort of wonder if it would take you out of [that world] to have me there. I leave that up to her. But we talk all the time. I was texting her yesterday. I think we’ll find something to work together on. I’m writing quite a bit. I feel like the more experience I have as a writer that that might be something we do [together], although it chills me to think about writing something with or for Amy. But she’s been an accidental — and now intentional — mentor in my writing, and I just think we have similar taste and vibe.
This isn’t the first time Lauren Graham has expressed interest in teaming with the Gilmore Girls creator on the Amazon period-comedy series. In 2018, Amy Sherman-Palladino spoke out about wanting Graham on the series and that Graham wanted to be very specific. Although that was three years ago, it seems as if the sentiments haven’t changed. Even though Graham doesn’t know how she would fit into the series, she does hope that she and Sherman-Palladino will eventually work together soon, no matter what it is. While Graham is staying busy, it could be possible fans will see her team up with Sherman-Palladino once again.
Although it's not yet known when fans can see Lauren Graham and Amy Sherman-Palladino team up again, fans can still hope since both Graham and Sherman-Palladino have expressed how much they want it to happen. But how would Graham look on Marvelous Mrs. Maisel? And what would her character be? Graham’s worried about not being able to fit in or worried that her character would take fans out of that world, but she also knows that Sherman-Palladino would do what would be done to have her there and not mess anything up. Hopefully it won’t be long until fans see Graham in 1960’s New York.
