Milo Ventimiglia is on board for the Gilmore Girls reunion to revive the show's rockiest romance.
Ventimiglia broke the news on Twitter today (February 10) that he will be part of Netflix's four extended Gilmore Girls episodes.
"What a great time to get back on set with some friends. #JessIsBack @warnerbrostv @netflix," he tweeted.
Ventimiglia starred throughout the Gilmore Girls' original run as Rory's badboy on-off boyfriend Jess Mariano.
Netflix also revealed today that original cast members Yanic Truesdale and Liza Weil have signed on as well to reprise their respective roles as Lorelai's snooty co-worker Michel and Rory's pal Paris Geller.
A love triangle is likely brewing as Netflix closed a deal last week with Matt Czuchry, who played another of Rory's former flames Logan.
No update yet on Melissa McCarthy, who has said she wasn't invited to take part in these new episodes.
