Alexis Bledel shoots

Alexis Bledel shoots for some new movies. After last year's Post Grad, the Hispanic-heritage actress will star in The Good Guy releasing on February 19. She recently finished shooting for Robert Redford's The Conspirator.

Bledel told the San Francisco Chronicle: "I do get scripts for sort of sweet characters for family films. I think it just takes time. I have to grow out of my image, and it has to do with the way I look, too, which I can’t do anything about."

The Conspirator, which also stars Evan Rachel Wood and Robin Wright Penn, is about the Lincoln assassination and the trial of the conspirators that followed. The Good Guy is all about the stock market, success, greed, and the impact on family life and relationships.

Alexis told EW that she does not care for appearing in too many photo shoots: "It's not something I gravitate toward. I focus on the work. During photo shoots you do these stupid movements to make the dress look cute. Everyone's standing around watching. You just feel ridiculous sometimes. I don't like being the center of attention!"

Alexis told WWD that she usually wears jeans and button-ups: "I try not to wear anything that makes me look too young because that only aggravates the idea that I'm young and sweet like my character on [Gilmore Girls]."
