Fans want Rory Gilmore to go Grey

When news of a big screen adaption of 50 Shades of Grey were initially announced, rumors flooded the internet that the role of Ana Steele would be portrayed by former Gilmore Girl Alexis Bledel.

A fan-created trailer for the film, featuring Bledel may have been partly responsible for the rumor. 


For seven seasons, Bledel played bookish and sometimes timid Rory Gilmore. It isn't hard to see the parallels between Rory and Ana Steele. It is somewhat understandable that people believed the rumors. 

In fact, fans even formed a petition for her to star in the role. Other bloggers started blogging of her involvement in the film was fact.

Two years later and the 50-Shades-of-Gray-reading Gilmore Girl fans still haven't given up hope of seeing there favorite bibliophile in the franchise.

Now, some blogs are reporting that Bledel has been taped for the sequel 50 Shades Darker as Leila Williams (a former submissive of Christian Grey).

The story is still in rumor stages, and has not yet been confirmed. The film's release is anticipated to be in early 2017.

As a fan of Gilmore Girls, I don't want to see "my Rory" affiliated with this mess.

Do you want the former Gilmore Girl in the cast?
