As we approach the highly anticipated premiere of Netflix’s four-part season-themed Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, actor Scott Patterson (who portrays Luke in the show) gave his two cents on the revival. Patterson proclaimed that fans “got a little stiffed” regarding Luke and Lorelai’s relationship at the end of the seventh season, which aired nearly a decade ago. He also suggested that viewers will get “the full monty” by the end of the new 90-minute segments.
In regards to his character, Patterson elaborated on how Luke will be there for Lorelai as she grieves for her father. During the brand new interview with Variety, Patterson stated “He has this Gibraltar-ish sense of comfort he can give.” The Netflix original event premieres this Friday, November 25.
