'Gilmore Girls' spoilers: Rory's friendship with Lane and Paris still tight

(Facebook/GilmoreGirls)The girls are back in "Gilmore Girls."

The girl power between Rory (Alexis Bledel), Paris (Liza Weil) and Lane (Keiko Agena) is expected to be as strong as ever in the upcoming Netflix revival of "Gilmore Girls."

According to Bustle, Weil and Agena will be reprising their roles as Rory's closest friends in the series. Lane is Rory's childhood BFF who knows her inside out. She was there when Rory was starting to have a crush on Dean (Jared Padalecki). Lane is Rory's confidante and vice versa. Being American-Korean, Lane's family is extremely old-fashioned. Her mother, especially, never liked that she became friends with the child of a single mother. Despite this, she and Rory stayed loyal to each other, even though they expanded their horizons and met new friends.

When Rory got into Chilton, she became Paris' number one enemy. They were rivals in every way. Paris did not like that Rory was as good as her in academics. She and her friends always tried to bully Rory, but something happened in their final year at school that pushed the two of them together. Paris was rejected by Harvard, the school where her entire family graduated from. It was Rory who consoled her and their strange friendship was born. The girls both decided to attend Yale, where they remained besties through the years.

Meanwhile, Rory's eccentric family will not be complete in the revival. Edward Herrmann, who played her grandfather Richard, died in 2014. Scott Patterson, who plays Luke, recently told PEOPLE that there would be a touching homage for him on the show. According to the actor, they all felt surreal during the first day of shoot at the Gilmore house. He said everyone still could not believe that Herrmann was already gone.

"Losing Ed, it left just a gaping hole and it was so tragic and so shocking to lose him. But as far as the storytelling was concerned, it really deepened the scripts and affected the tone of a lot of it – and especially our characters and how we related to one another. ... On the first day on the Gilmore house set, there were some things there that nobody had seen before that we saw that were so moving, that we all kind of had to sit down," Patterson said.

"Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life" will air November 25 on Netflix.
