Multiple outlets report that HBO Max’s reboot of Gossip Girl has cast Emily Alyn Lind. She’ll will play a character named Audrey, who has been in a long-term relationship and is beginning to wonder what more could be out there.

The new iteration, like the original, is based on the book by Cecily von Ziegesar. It hails from Joshua Safran, Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage’s Fake Empire, Alloy Entertainment, Warner Bros TV and CBS Television Studios.

The original Gossip Girl debuted in 2007 and ran for six seasons on The CW. It starred Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Penn Badgley, Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick.

HBO Max announced earlier this month that it would be producing a new version of The CW show, which starred Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Penn Badgley, Ed Westwick, and Chase Crawford.

10 episodes have so far been ordered, with original creator Josh Schwartz back on board.

At the Television Critics Association event, Schwartz revealed some of what we can expect from the upcoming show — and whether Serena and Blair will be back.

“I mean, if they want to be involved in some way, we reached out to all of them to let them know it was happening, and that we would love for them to be involved, if they want to be involved, but we certainly didn’t want to make it contingent upon them,” Schwartz said.

“And you know, they played those characters for six years, and if they felt like they’re good with that, we wanted to respect that but obviously any time anybody wants… it’d be great to see them again.”

As for Gossip Girl herself, her identity will no longer be a mystery. Because it’s us.

“We felt like a version that was just our cast grown up… it didn’t really feel like a group of adults who were being controlled by Gossip Girl would make a lot of sense, so it felt like there was something really interesting about this idea that we are all Gossip Girl now, in our own way, that we are all purveyors of our own social media surveillance state, and how that’s evolved, and how that has morphed and mutated and telling that story through a new generation of Upper East Side high school kids felt like the right time.”

We’ll be watching.

Seven years after we said goodbye to Serena van der Woodsen, Blair Waldorf, and Lonely Boy Dan Humphrey, the elite of New York City’s Upper East Side is set to become the focus of Gossip Girl’s blogs once again.

Warner Bros’ new streaming service, HBO Max, has announced that it will be creating a spin-off of the famous CW series, which starred Blake Lively, Leighton Meester, Penn Badgley, Chace Crawford, and Ed Westwick.

The original ran between 2007 to 2012 and was written by Joshua Safran, who also executive produced alongside Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage.

The trio will be involved in the spin-off, which will pick up eight years after the original website went dark with a new generation of NYC high schoolers coming under Gossip Girl’s surveillance.

The new version will consist of 10 hour-long episodes.

Xoxo.

It has been 11 years since we said goodbye to Blair, Serena van der Woodsen, Chuck Bass, Dan Humphrey, Nate Archibald, and all their drama, courtesy of Gossip Girl.

With so many shows receiving the reboot treatment, it is only natural to hope that Gossip Girl will be one of them.

Penn Badgley who played Dan aka Lonely Boy has already said, “Never say never,” when asked about the possibility of returning to the Upper East Side, but Leighton Meester is not so keen.

The 32-year-old, who portrayed Blair, has now said, “ I don’t know if it was the healthiest environment.”

“I wouldn’t trade it for anything,” she told Porter. “It’s sort of a time capsule. A lot of the questions that come from it are: ‘Do you miss it? Did you love what you wore?’ And I understand that, but — and I say this with nothing but love — it is like saying, ‘High school was an amazing time for you. Do you wish you could go back?’ And the truth is, it was so special and such a unique, amazing experience, but no, I wouldn’t wanna go back to it.”

The readers of Gossip Girl will be most disappointed.

The actor played the role of Dan Humphrey on The CW show for 6 years and was ultimately revealed to be behind the omniscient voice of Gossip Girl.

During the height of the teen drama, New York City high schoolers stalked the Gossip Girl set in the hopes of seeing their favorite cast members.

“I think as an actor you can become an object of desire, which is something women are already accustomed to more or less around the world — I’ve definitely been, I mean I don’t want to sound sensationalist, but I’ve literally been molested — just in the literal sense of the word — by many people in the moment. Because that’s what they do,” the 31-year-old told The Daily Beast, describing it as “pretty full-on obsession.”

Penn will next be seen in Lifetime’s series You where he plays a bookstore manager who falls in love with a customer and becomes obsessed with her.
