Before she was the effervescent star of Younger, Sutton Foster was best known to TV nerds for her work on Amy Sherman-Palladino‘s quirky ballet dramedy Bunheads. Foster is about to join the cast of Sherman-Palladino’s other cult hit Gilmore Girls when the show returns for a four-part special miniseries event, called Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life, on Netflix later this year. The Broadway star is reportedly playing a musical theater actress appearing in a local Stars Hollow production.
Foster was one of the many Younger stars on hand at this year’s ATX Festival in Austin. We got a chance to ask her ahead of the show’s panel what it was like joining the illustrious cast of Gilmore Girls.
