Melissa McCarthy is delighted to take a break from her blockbuster film career to return to the set of Gilmore Girls for the show’s reboot.
“I just visited the set and everything about it felt like home. Seeing Stars Hollow, I realized I had missed it way more than I had thought,” The Boss star and TIME 100 honoree said during the TIME 100 Gala, which celebrates the influencers on the magazine’s annual list.
“I think it’s going to be great,” McCarthy added of the reboot as she walked into the dinner.
