THEN & NOW: The cast of 'Gilmore Girls' 10 years later

The WB and Hulu

Stars Hollow jump-started the careers of a number of actors, including Alexis Bledel and Melissa McCarthy. 

But while the "Gilmore Girls" cast was full of many new faces, it was also graced by veterans. Much of the cast returned for the revival "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life." 

Here's a look back at what the cast looked like when they first starred on the hit show and what they've been up to since the series ended in 2007: 

Alexis Bledel made her TV (and lead role) debut as Rory Gilmore.

She made her feature film debut in 2002 with "Tuck Everlasting" and starred in the "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" movies. She also had a small role on "Mad Men." She recently won an Emmy for her role on "The Handmaid's Tale."
