Why This Christian Actor Surprised GILMORE GIRLS Documentary Creators

Meghna Balakumar and Kevin Konrad Hanna, creators of the GILMORE GIRLS documentary, revealed that one of their biggest surprises during filming was how kind and intelligent Chad Michael Murray turned out to be.

“I was surprised that Chad Michael Murray was smart and nice – only because Tristan is terrible, no other reason,” Hanna told PEOPLE. “Chad is so smart and so insightful and so kind.”
“Tristan is like a monster, right? He was just this blunt object,” Hanna added. “I think after seeing Chad Michael Murray’s interview, a lot more people will be team Tristan, which will surprise them, so that was my surprise.”

Chad Michael Murray’s Faith and Family Values

Fans familiar with Murray from GILMORE GIRLS might not expect that he is a devout Christian and a significant presence on Great American Family. He openly shares how his faith shapes his life and parenting.

“That’s one of the foundations of teaching a good moral compass in our children,” Murray said in 2022. “Having the fear of God is vital because, to be honest, what do you have to lose if you have no fear of that. If you have no fear of God it would be chaos here.”
