While I was at school, I found out that the rumours on Alexis’ appearance on Lost is not true! Thanks to Michele for pointing it out as well. (: Ausiello is from Entertainment Weekly magazine, therefore is a very trusted source. Here’s wat he had to say…
Question: According to IMDB, Alexis Bledel will appear in an episode of Lost this season. Is that true? –Anita Ausiello: No, it sure ain’t!
Check back soon for a gallery update and visit Dianna Agron Fan, a site I recently joined.
Gilmore Girls News just pointed out that Alexis will be filming The Kate Logan Affair. According to Heidi Levitt, the casting director, filming should’ve started this month already or will be starting next month in Montreal, Canada. The interview that Alexis mentioned the filming was posted on this site way back when the interview was posted on PopStar‘s site, but I never got time to read it. How unfortunate
This is the sypnosis posted on Heidi’s site:
The Kate Logan Affair is about a young psychologically unstable young police woman named Kate Logan and a married Frenchman who find themselves caught up in a dramatic twisted affair.
There is also more news on Sin City 2! MTV talked to actor Clive Owen (who played Dwight in Sin City) about the film. Here’s what he had to say:
“I’m hearing it might be next year,” Owen told MTV News. “I heard that from a very good source… recently.”
However, Owen wouldn’t reveal where he heard the news (“Maybe one of them,” he grinned, when asked if it was Miller or Rodriguez), and he didn’t let fans’ hopes get too carried away. According to the actor, he hasn’t read a script for the film yet.
“I had a great time on the first one. It was a stunning film,” said Owen. ” I think it was an absolutely extraordinary achievement, what [Rodriguez] did with that film. It is a genuinely original movie.”
I really hope the movie does get filmed! I’ve been updating the gallery with tonnes opf photos recently. I will post links to all updates soon but if you follow our twitter, I post them as I go (:

I have also added some candids from 2008 that we didnt have in the gallery before here.
Enterainment Weekly also have a mini preview of “Post Grad”, with some quotes form Alexis and Zach. Zach’s quote on Alexis is so cute! (:
Alexis Bledel (“Gilmore Girls”) plays a determined but naive college grad who ends up back home with her dysfunctional family. Zach Gilford (“Friday Night Lights”) plays the long-suffering best friend with a secret crush on her. Call it “When Rory Gilmore Met Matt Saracen.” “People still see me as Rory,” Bledel says, “and this kind of picks up where ‘Gilmore Girls’ left off.” As for Gilford, he admits that he — gasp! — never followed Bledel’s show, but sensed a kindred soul: “She’s such a dork, and that’s why I love her.”
There is a small article and interview with Alexis at canada.com. Alexis talks about “Post Grad” and about her future career path with TV and movies. Read the rest after the excerpt.
Post Grad might be appropriate in more ways than one for Alexis Bledel. Sure, it’s the name of Bledel’s latest film, but the title could also refer to the early stages of her Gilmore Girls career aftermath.
Either way, the 27-year-old says, “So far, so good.”
Comedy is mostly the goal, but Bledel says the movie does have something to say about choices and chances for young females in the modern world.
“I think the film’s suggesting that you can’t plan everything,” reports Bledel who plays the typical undecided 20-something character. “You have to be open to what life throws your way, and adapt to things as you go.”
Fans may try to get familiar with Bledel’s Post Grad persona, but they might find it difficult to completely forget about her Rory Gilmore persona.
That may have more to say about the popularity of the Gilmore Girls series, which ran from 2000 to 2007, than the actress’s range. Indeed, the show seems even more popular in reruns over the last two years.
No matter, Bledel is making a casual effort to distance herself from the quick-witted, sometimes rebellious teen from the show.
In fact, she was doing that while the series was on the air. In 2005, she co-starred in the film version of the popular teen novel The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, portraying the artistic Lena who becomes involved with a Greek college student. That same year she played Becky the prostitute in Robert Rodriguez’s stylized Sin City and repeated her Lena part in the Sisterhood sequel last year.
While her Post Grad character isn’t a major leap, she’s satisfied that it’s a move forward. Besides, she doesn’t get too fixated with things like her career arc.
Raised in Houston by her Mexican mother, Nanette, and Danish-Argentinian father, Martin, her first language was Spanish until she started school at five.
As luck would have it, she was 16 when she was discovered at a suburban mall in her hometown and soon found herself in New York modelling while attending NYU.
“I kind of discovered acting in college at NYU,” she recalls. “I started auditioning because I had a modelling agent and in their same office is where I met my manager. So I kind of fell into it.”
I have updated the “Important Dates” with more need-to know dates! Don’t forget to watch the shows, I especially can’t wait for when she visits It’s On with Alexa Chung! Her “Post Grad” co-star, Zach Gilford will also visit Alexa Chung the day before!
Remember how a few weeks back, I asked you guys to post questions for Michelle‘s interview with Alexis? Well, as it happened the interview has been performed and all 6 questions that I chose were asked. (: The interview, altogether consists of 20 questions. I have posted the 6 from this site and the rest are here or after the jump! She answered my questions and says she only has a Facebook & Myspace page- no Twitter! Don’t forget to visit Michelle’s blog, click on the thumbnail in the sidebar (:
15. From Julie Achermann: Now that Gilmore Girls is over and you’ve appeared in some great movies, what do you prefer, being part of a movie or a television show? Which one requires a harder work?
A: Julie,
There are great things about both; when you’re on a show, you have consistent work for a while, which is great. When you’re going from movie to movie, you get to enjoy a fresh start at the beginning of each job, which is also nice. Both require hard work, but television show schedules are typically more demanding.
16. From Lucia: Out of all the characters you have played, which can you relate to the most?
A: Lucia,
I can relate to all of them a little bit.
17. from Esme: Which movie/t.v. show was the most fun to shoot and why?
A: Esme,
Sin City was fun because it was so different from other work I’ve done, and I just worked on an independent film called The Good Guy last summer; that one was fun because we shot it in New York City with a great group of people.
19. From Joanne: What is your favorite movie and TV show?
A: Joanne,
Some of my most recently favorite movies are Children of Men and The Motorcycle Diaries. Mad Men is a great show. Does anyone remember Perfect Strangers or Mr. Belvedere from the eighties? Those were some of my favorites when I was a kid. And I loved The Cosby Show.
20. From Tamara: What is one of your favorite episodes of Gilmore Girls and why?
A: Tamara,
My favorite episode is the first one, the pilot. I’m not sure why, maybe it makes me sentimental in a way, it was my first acting job, and in it are the first few scenes Lauren and I shot together with seven years of working closely to follow.
