Some familiar Stars Hollow faces will be on hand for the “Gilmore Girls” reboot.
Netflix says the four-episode series will include Milo Ventimiglia as Jess Mariano, Matt Czuchry as Logan Huntzberger and Jared Padalecki as Dean Forester.
Also returning are Liza Weil as Paris Geller and Yanic Truesdale as Michel Gerard, Netflix said Wednesday.
They’ll be joining previously announced stars Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel, who are reprising their roles as mom Lorelai and daughter Rory from the 2000 to 2007 broadcast network series.
Original cast members Scott Patterson, Kelly Bishop, Keiko Agena and Sean Gunn also will be part of the new series, created by Amy Sherman-Palladino and set in the fictional Connecticut town of Stars Hollow.
The show’s title and premiere date have yet to be announced.

A federal judge in Massachusetts has ruled that Bill Cosby’s wife must answer questions under oath in a defamation lawsuit filed by seven women who claim Cosby sexually assaulted them decades ago.
A lawyer for the women has sought to compel Camille Cosby to give a deposition in the lawsuit. Last month, a magistrate judge rejected Cosby’s bid to quash the deposition subpoena.
On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Mark Mastroianni upheld the magistrate’s ruling but said she may refuse to answer questions that call for testimony prohibited by the Massachusetts marital disqualification rule.
Peyton Manning has a little fun with little brother Eli
Peyton Manning had a little fun with little brother Eli’s sad face at the Super Bowl during an appearance on NBC’s “Tonight Show.”
Peyton said he understood why Eli wasn’t elated like other relatives in the luxury suite at Levi’s Stadium who were jumping and celebrating after Denver’s late touchdown sealed the Broncos’ 24-10 win over the Carolina Panthers.
He said Eli had his game face on.
“Eli and I have always supported each other. I think Eli was analyzing the game and kind of into the game like I would be as if he were playing it. And so he was just as happy,” Peyton told host Jimmy Fallon during the show that aired Wednesday night.
Then, he and Fallon quickly pivoted to a bit where they spoke to a life-sized cutout of Eli, the New York Giants quarterback who won two Super Bowl rings himself.
“It’s funny, when I saw that clip, Jimmy, I’ve seen that look before. I’ve recognized it. At other big moments in my life he kind of had that similar expression,” Peyton said.
“I can remember 18 years ago, calling the night before the draft and said: ‘Eli, guess what? The Colts are going to draft me No. 1 in the NFL draft tomorrow.’ ”
The camera showed cardboard Eli’s expressionless face.
“Eli, I got us front-row tickets to see Adele!” Fallon chimed in as the audience roared.
Fallon finished the bit by saying: “All those big moments in your life, he’s always there for you. That’s what a brother is for.”
