'Gilmore Girls' revival cast updates: Liza Weil, Yanic Truesdale return to reprise roles

Ever since "Gilmore Girls" revival has been confirmed as a Netflix series, the updates just keep coming.

Already confirmed to sign on for the revival are Alexis Bledel, Scott Patterson, Lauren Graham, Kelly Bishop, Keiko Agena, and Sean Gunn. The latest update on the series is that Liza Weil will also be back as Paris Geller. So far, she is the latest confirmed addition to the revival project.

"I start on Tuesday, which I really feel like bodes well that I get to start on a Tuesday being that we used to be on a Tuesday," she told reporters at aTVfest in Atlanta. "Tuesday is my first day, and I'm nervous!"

Weil also revealed that she will not be in all episodes of the series but will appear only in two. The "How to Get Away With Murder" actress has read the scripts for the episodes that she will star in and described them to be "very emotional."

"It's like a really magical perfect time machine. I'm very happy to be a part of it."

Weil is not the only original cast member who is excited to be back with the gang from Stars Hollow. She now joins Yanic Truesdale, who announced his return on Twitter on Jan. 30.

"Happy to be back and reconnect with my old pal Michel. Feeling blessed and excited! #GilmoreGirls" Truesdale wrote.

Truesdale, who plays Michel Gerard, also posted a selfie on Saturday on Twitter with Graham and wrote, "First day back at the Inn with my old boss. Fun times! #GilmoreGirlsRevival #WarnerBros"

Real fans of "Gilmore Girls" will find this nostalgic as it was obvious that the snapshot was taken at The Dragonfly Inn. What does the snapshot likely tell viewers? According to Truesdale, who told E! Online at the ATX TV Festival in Austin back in June last year, he predicted that his character is "probably running an inn on its own, calling the shots."

"Gilmore Girls" revival started filming on Feb. 2. An exact premiere date for the series has not yet been announced.
