We've known for a while now that Sutton Foster would be gracing the Gilmore Girls revival with her presence. We're not sure exactly who she'll be playing or what her role will be, but it's still exciting.

Will she be reprising her role as Michelle from Bunheads, her former collaboration with Amy Sherman-Palladino? Will she be playing a new character? Maybe, heaven forbid, Luke's new love interest?!
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Sutton Foster didn't reveal much about who she'd be playing, but she did give us a little glimpse into what it was like being back in Stars Hollow.
First of all, Sutton is a HUGE Gilmore Girls fan, so being on set was pretty special for her.

Sutton also said she went to film scenes more than once, and it seems the set was decorated for DIFFERENT SEASONS, in keeping with Amy Sherman-Palladino's comments on each of the four 90-minute episodes being named after each season.
