The Gilmore Girls fans will get another chance to revisit Rory and Lorelai, as the show is about to receive a new, special documentary on the occasion of the show's 25th anniversary, as per The Hollywood Reporter.
Titled Searching For Stars Hollow, the doc-film is in the works at the Ink On Paper Studios. It is aimed at capturing the show's pop cultural relevance and its "role in American cultural history." The documentary will feature everything from a behind-the-scenes look at the show to cast members' never-before-seen interviews.
Meghna Balakumar is directing this documentary with Kevin Konrad Hanna, while Jim Demonakos is producing the project. Adam F. Goldberg will serve as the executive producer, as per THR.
Upon the announcement, Jim Demanakos shared a statement, which said,
“Searching For Stars Hollow will reveal how Gilmore Girls came 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."
He continued,
"This documentary is for fans of the show but also for anyone with an interest in cultural history and how it affects individual lives.”
What will the new 'Gilmore Girls' documentary be about?
Gilmore Girls, the comedy-drama show created by Amy Sherman-Palladino, began on The WB and ran for seven seasons, and then the final season aired on the CW. It starred Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel as Lorelei and Rory Gilmore, a mother and a daughter living in the charming town of Stars Hollow.
With the upcoming documentary, the Gilmore Girls fans will get a chance to make another detour through Stars Hollow to meet all the people who turned it into a charming place. The doc-film will feature interviews with Kelly Bishop, Chad Michael Murray, and Jared Padalecki, who played Emily Gilmore, Tristin Dugray, and Dean Forester, respectively.
They will be joined by a few other names from the cast, which includes Keiko Agena (who played Lane Kim), Emily Kuroda (who played Mrs. Kim), Kathleen Wilhoite (who played Liz Danes), Liz Torres (who played Miss Patty), Matt Jones (who played Morgan), Sally Struthers (who played Babette Dell), and Rose Abdoo (who played Gypsy).
Director Meghna Balakumar offered some insights into the team's research for the documentary and how it will come about in the final film. According to THR, here's what her statement said,
“The interviews that we’ve already conducted with the cast have been a delight. We’ve shot more than 100 hours of footage and have already unearthed stories, commentary, critiques, and more."
She further added,
"And we’re continuing to shoot more interviews in the coming months to present the most complete, full, and truly new story of the show’s impact and legacy that is only possible at this historical moment.”
