Alexis Bledel made her debut on TV in the Gilmore Girls series in 2000. She plays Lorelai Leigh "Rory" Gilmore, the daughter of single mother Lorelai Victoria Gilmore. Initially, Rory was a high school student living with her mother, but she has since moved on to college at Yale University, where she recently stepped down as editor of the Yale Daily News.

Alexis Bledel appeared as the main character in the video for Less Than Jake's She's Gonna Break Soon from their 2003 album Anthem.

The role of Becky, a prostitute, in the movie Sin City was a shift from Bledel's previous TV and film characters. "She's a very professional prostitute. she carries a gun and she kicks ass," said Alexis Bledel of Becky. Despite her tough and precocious exterior, Becky gives the impression of being the young and insecure one among the women of Old Town, because of her young appearance and her close relationship to her mother, from whom she keeps her profession a secret.

The movie is shot almost entirely in black-and-white, with splashes of color here and there, such as a red dress, blood or an entirely yellow evil character. In Becky's case, it was her eyes that kept their color, as director Robert Rodriguez claimed that he found Alexis Bledel's eyes to be "so amazing I had to keep them blue in the picture..."
