Meet the new kings and queens of the Upper East Side. <\/p>\n

Emily Alyn Lind, Whitney Peak, Eli Brown, Johnathan Fernandez, <\/strong>and Jason Gotay<\/strong> have been cast in lead roles in the new Gossip Girl<\/em>, which is heading to HBO Max. Lind will play Audrey, a teen in a long term relationship who begins to wonder what more could be out there, but no info is available on the other characters just yet. <\/p>\n

The series, from original creators Josh Schwartz<\/strong> and Stephanie Savage<\/strong> and written by Joshua Safran<\/strong>, is set eight years after the end of the original Gossip Girl, and will introduce a new generation of New York private school kids to a new version of Gossip Girl, one who isn’t just one person behind a computer. This time, Gossip Girl is all of us. <\/p>\n

However, Gossip Girl still has one voice, and it’s the voice of Kristen Bell<\/a><\/strong>, who’s returning as the narrator.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

While the story won’t be focusing on Blair or Serena, the show takes place in the same world where they once ruled, meaning we can all dream of a Blake Lively or Leighton Meester appearance at any time, theoretically. (Though not any time soon<\/a>.) <\/p>\n

The new series will be 10 episodes, and Schwartz and Savage were most convinced<\/a> to do the new series when they heard Safran’s plans to “subvert the original paradigm” of the first show. <\/p>\n

Lind is known for playing Ariel on Code Black<\/em>, and for playing young Amanda Clarke on Revenge<\/em>. She also appeared in the movie Doctor Sleep<\/em> in 2019. <\/p>\n

She confirmed the news<\/a> of her casting on Instagram with the caption, “seen u soon upper east side, xoxo,” <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Whitney Peak played Judith Blackwood on Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Eli Brown was on Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists. Johnathan Fernandez is a comedian known for his role on Lethal Weapon, and Jason Gotay<\/strong> is a Broadway vet. <\/p>\n

Lind’s casting was announced first, followed by the addition of her four new costars. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

HBO Max, which will include titles from all over Warner media, will be making its debut in May. We’ll have to wait a bit for the new Gossip Girl<\/em> to arrive on the streaming service, but in the meantime, we’ll have the original series, along with all episodes of Friends<\/em> and the new Friends<\/em> reunion, to keep us occupied. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
