The top community for Gilmore Girls. Keeping Gilmore Girls alive and news on what the Gilmore cast is up to now. Daily updates since 2005.
Edward Herrmann (Richard Gilmore on Gilmore Girls) stars as Governor Dawson in the film, For Robbing the Dead, a story of judgment, justice, and mercy in the Old West. Henry Heath is a grieving lawman whose daughter has recently died; he is assigned custody of the ghoulish Jean Baptiste, a notorious robber of 300 graves.

After Emily Kuroda (Mrs. Kim on Gilmore Girls) guest starred for her second time on Drop Dead Diva last week, Edward Herrmann (Richard Gilmore on Gilmore Girls) made an appearance on the show last night.

Edward Herrmann (Richard Gilmore on Gilmore Girls) stars in the film Son of Morning, a film about an environmental catastrophe that threatens the world.
“Phillip Katz (Joe Cross, Milk), a stressed-out, lowly copywriter, experiences an episode of stigmata in church and is positioned as the next MESSIAH by ambitious reporter, Josephine Tuttle (Heather Graham).
Phillip is whisked away to a lavish hotel suite as politicians, reporters, and devout fans descend upon him, each hoping to exploit Phillip for their own purposes. After becoming the most famous man on the planet in less than a day, Phillip must decide how to use his newfound celebrity…
SON OF MORNING is a stylized satire about the media in the age of the 24-hour news cycle.”
Too bad the website spelled his name wrong. Ugh!
Edward Herrmann (Richard Gilmore on Gilmore Girls) recently lent his voice to the audiobook version of Roger Ebert’s Life Itself: A Memoir.
Roger Ebert is the best-known film critic of our time. Though he lost the ability to eat, drink or speak in 2006, he has continued to be an influential writer. This book tells the story of his life and career. In a post on the Sun Times, Roger shares how “my new voice belongs to Edward Herrmann,” who recorded the audiobook:
“Edward Herrmann is a pro. He positions the material in the foreground but he never tries to sell it. He brings it into existence clearly, concisely, with flawless control of timing and tone. It doesn’t sound as if he’s “reading.” It sounds like he might have had these memories — as if he’s confiding events and conversations he remembers. He’s friendly, but not like some affable uncle crowding you on the sofa. He doesn’t insist that we listen.”
Some very wonderful words of praise! You can also listen to a chapter in the book here, to hear for yourself.
Thanks Taylor

Edward Herrmann (Richard Gilmore on Gilmore Girls) is narrating the upcoming documentary film, Hold at All Costs, a film about a specific battle in the Korean War. Edward was chosen as narrator, being known in from his work narrating the audio CD version of David Halberstam’s Korean War book, The Coldest Winter.
In June, 1953, during the last weeks of the Korean War, a battle raged between American soldiers and Chinese Communists for possession of a company-sized piece of ground known as Outpost Harry.
In the course of eight days, eight or ten companies from the 15th Infantry, 3rd Division and 5th Infantry Regiment obeyed their orders to hold Harry “at all costs.” They did so, but at a terrible price.
This is the story of forgotten warriors, in a forgotten battle, of a forgotten war.
