Hey Upper East Siders, the Gossip Girl reboot cast was spotted, and they’re not here to play. HBO Max revealed the new cast in action for the first time in an official trailer, which you can check out below.
The original Gossip Girl—based on Cecily von Ziegesar’s book series of the same title—premiered on The CW in 2007 and starred Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Ed Westwick, Chase Crawford, Penn Badgley and more as privileged, upper-class teenagers living on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Deadline confirmed in July 2019 that a Gossip Girl reboot—developed by the original series’ executive producers Josh Schwartz, Stephanie Savage and Joshua Safran—was in the works for HBO Max. Production started on the series in October 2020, seven months after the cast was announced in March 2020.
In June, HBO Max released the official trailer for the reboot, which is titled Gossip Girl 2.0. The service also launched Instagram accounts for each of the main characters, which you can follow below for spoilers about what season 1 of the Gossip Girl reboot will be about. The series premieres on July 8 on HBO Max.
As of now, there is only one returning cast member from the original series, and it may be the most important one yet: Kristen Bell, who served as Gossip Girl’s mysterious narrator, has signed back on to join the reboot. But who is in the new gang of Upper East Siders we’ll follow in HBO Max‘s reboot? Read about the cast and who they’re playing ahead.
