Lauren Graham revealed exciting progress on her Gilmore Girls book with creator Amy Sherman-Palladino earlier today. The 58-year-old actress gave fans an exclusive update at the Reminders of Him premiere in Los Angeles on March 9, saying the pair are moving forward, though they’re “not super far” along in the writing process yet.

Lauren Graham’s Journey with Gilmore Girls Continues

Graham, who famously played Lorelai Gilmore for the entire run, has long been connected to the beloved series. The actress told PEOPLE magazine that collaborating with Sherman-Palladino, whom she calls her “boss,” represents a major milestone. “If you had told me 25 years ago that we would get to a place where she wants to collaborate with me, that’s a win,” Graham explained during the March 9 interview.

She previously wrote about her Gilmore Girls experience in her 2016 memoir Talking as Fast as I Can: From Gilmore Girls to Gilmore Girls (And Everything In Between), which covered filming the Netflix revival A Year in the Life.

What’s Taking Time: Sherman-Palladino’s London Movie, Graham’s New Films

Graham provided insight into why the book is progressing at a steady pace rather than quickly. She revealed that Sherman-Palladino recently traveled to London to direct a film, while Graham has been busy with productions like Reminders of Him. “So it may take a minute, but I think once we really get in the groove of hanging out together and telling our stories, it’s going to flow,” she assured fans.

The actress expressed enthusiasm about diving deeper into conversations with Sherman-Palladino about creative decisions made during the original series. “There are so many things I have never asked her,” Graham noted, suggesting the book will offer fresh perspectives.

The book promises an intimate look at how the Connecticut-set comedy-drama became a cultural touchstone. Graham emphasized that it will capture “humor, heart and alchemy” that made the show endure for fans. “It’s a story about Gilmore Girls, but also a story of friendship,” she teased, highlighting the personal dynamic between her and Sherman-Palladino.

“I think it’ll be a story about Gilmore Girls, but also to me, it’s a story of friendship and a story of kind of these two people who met at a certain place and now we’re friends and colleagues still many years later.”

Looking Ahead: What Fans Can Expect from the New Book

Graham continues to build her literary career alongside her acting work. The Parenthood and Reminders of Him star has already published multiple successful books, including memoirs In Conclusion, Don’t Worry About It (2018) and Have I Told You This Already? (2022), plus the 2013 novel Someday Someday Maybe. This new project with Sherman-Palladino marks her most significant collaboration since the series concluded in 2007, with the exception of the 2016 Netflix revival.

Fans who have waited years for deeper insights into Gilmore Girls can mark their calendars for Fall 2027, when the officially untitled book arrives. The project represents a reunion of two creative forces who shaped one of television’s most beloved shows.

When Will Lauren Graham and Amy Sherman-Palladino’s Book Release?

Although Fall 2027 seems like a distant timeline, Graham‘s candid update reveals why the wait is necessary. Both the author and co-writer maintain demanding careers, which means the book will take time to develop fully. Sherman-Palladino, known for creating hit projects like The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, will likely continue her directing work while collaborating on the memoir project in tandem.

For Gilmore Girls enthusiasts eager to revisit Stars Hollow, this behind-the-scenes account promises to deliver authentic stories, thoughtful reflections, and the kind of witty observations that made the show legendary. Until publication, fans have A Year in the Life and Graham‘s previous essays to tide them over.
