When we say that we're all headed back to Stars Hollow for the Gilmore Girls revival, we mean everyone...including all of Rory's exes.
We already know that Matt Czuchry and Milo Ventimiglia had signed on to reprise their roles as Logan and Jess, respectively. Now Jared Padalecki, who played Rory's first boyfriend, Dean — you know, the one she eventually broke up with in favor of Jess — has signed on to return, too.

Will Rory end up with Dean...
