Fans were excited over the news that the actor will be making a comeback to the four-episode Netflix series as it has been revealed that Rory will be single during that time. Sutcliffe, while only appearing in 37 episodes, was involved in all seven seasons in some fashion or another. However, he did play Rory’s father and Lorelai’s ex, so he is critical to the plot.

Recently, show creator Amy Sherman-Palladino spilled that (WARNING: Spoiler ahead!) there’s a chance one of these old love interests just might still be in Rory’s life. No premiere date is set yet, but most speculation puts the show’s release in early 2017. Both are also now still in the process of filming their current seasons in NY and Vancouver respectively, while “Gilmore Girls” is in production in Los Angeles. “If she has a spare moment to run over [to the set] – even if for just a cameo – we would be totally game”. Each episode will be titled after, and take place during, a different season: Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall. News, Berta and Alejandro, a Peruvian couple, will be new, as well as a man named Nat Compton, and a brother/sister combo named Tim and Gabriela.
