Alexis Bledel on Conan

Alexis Bledel (Rory Gilmore on Gilmore Girls) was recently on Conan on TBS to talk about her new movie, The Conspirator. The interview opens up with talk of Gilmore Girls since the Conan studio is a few hundred feet from the old Stars Hollow town square (*sniff*).

Alexis shares some personal stories and about how she needs to put make-up on to “look older” and be taken more seriously. Crazy!

“The Conspirator” with Alexis Bledel Opens Friday

Alexis Bledel stars as Frederick Aiken’s sweetheart Sarah Weston in her newest film, The Conspirator. The movie opens this Friday, April 15th and I have for you some newly-released photos of Alexis Bledel from the film:

In the wake of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination, seven men and one woman are arrested and charged with conspiring to kill the President, Vice President, and Secretary of State. The lone woman charged, Mary Surratt, owns a boarding house where John Wilkes Booth, and others met and planned the simultaneous attacks.

Against the ominous back-drop of post-Civil War Washington, newly-minted lawyer, Frederick Aiken, a 28-year-old Union war-hero, reluctantly agrees to defend Surratt before a military tribunal. Aiken realizes his client may be innocent and that she is being used as bait and hostage in order to capture the only conspirator to have escaped a massive manhunt, her own son, John. As the nation turns against her, Surratt is forced to rely on Aiken to uncover the truth and save her life.

The Facebook page for the movie is also running a contest to give away a bag. [Read more...]
