Showrunners cast their favorite actors in new projects all the time, so it’s no real surprise that Lauren Graham could show up in Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino’s current project, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
“Lauren made a request, and Lauren is my queen and the reason I have a career, so I honor the request of Lauren Graham,” Sherman-Palladino told Entertainment Tonight on the PaleyFest carpet this weekend.
However, Graham has a very specific role she wants to play in the Emmy-winning comedy series.
Graham has been pitching Sherman-Palladino on her potential part in Maisel since early 2018, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
