In a surprising move, Scott Patterson, who played the iconic role of Luke Danes on the hit series Gilmore Girls, has commented on the drama’s future.

Speaking to US Weekly for the latest cover story, the 67-year-old actor shared, "Well, I think if Amy (Sherman-Palladino, showrunner) is talking about maybe a Christmas special and then Lauren (Graham) is repeating that, I think there’s intention there, so I am ever hopeful and I think the fans are too."

Continuing, "This is the one question that (fans) have in common, and I wish I had a definitive answer, but I don’t. I’m sure it’ll happen. Maybe."

It seems like Scott was pointing back to what Amy had said at PaleyFest back in March, "We never said never because we didn’t actually intend to do the (revival) for Netflix. Then, we all got together for a panel and we went to a bar afterwards. We all thought, Well, this was fun! Let’s just do it again!"

At the September 14, Emmy Awards, Lauren, who played Lorelai on the show, stirred up more buzz by adding to the speculation.

Talking to The Hollywood Reporter, during the awards show red carpet, the 58-year-old actress remarked, "I thought we were done with that conversation, and I realized we are not."

"I’ve been saying for a long time that what I could see making sense is a Christmas movie in the tradition of 'Downton Abbey' or those other kinds of shows that are over but then kind of come together, especially around the holidays. I think that would be very Gilmore-friendly."
