On Wednesday, June 9, HBO Max released the first footage for its forthcoming reboot of The CW's beloved teen drama that went dark in December 2012 after six seasons. Viewers won't need to wait long to see more, as the premiere launches on Thursday, July 8.
If you've watched the original show, I think you know what to expect. Fashion goes in only one direction - forward, and I am a firm believer in create your own individual style. We all need a little fashion inspiration from time to time!
Like Anna Wintour said - "You either know fashion or you don't."
The trailer introduces us to the main characters who form the new generation of the New York elite. Similar to the original, the HBO Max series focuses on a group of high school students whose lives are wrapped up in money, power and drama, with the ever-present Gossip Girl stirring up the chaos from afar.
This series' cast includes Jordan Alexander, Eli Brown, Thomas Doherty, Tavi Gevinson, Emily Alyn Lind, Evan Mock, Zion Moreno, Whitney Peak and Savannah Lee Smith.
The Cast
The new Gossip Girl is again based on the book series from author Cecily von Ziegesar, in addition to being based on the previous show that was created by Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage. The showrunner for the new project is Joshua Safran, who served as a writer and executive producer on the original, while Josh and Stephanie are EPS on the reboot.
The diversity of the cast is something that has already received high praise from fans and the stars themselves. In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, Whitney, who will play Zoya Lott, explained that "representation is everything".
She said: "I want all the hers and the hes and the theys and the people of color from all over the world to be able to watch the show and think - That's a person who looks like me. I don't have to be the stereotypical idea of who I am."
The key returning presence in the new version is the voice of Kristen Bell, who narrates the episodes, as she did in the original. This time, every move made by the Upper East Side private-school teens is documented by a mysterious Instagram account, replacing the first version's blog.
Even social media users who hadn't watched the original series, which starred Blake Lively and Leighton Meester, were left intrigued by the new version.
Indeed, there appears to be plenty for fans of the original to love, given that the trailer hints at a new love triangle seemingly destined to rival the Chuck Blair-Dan and Nate-Serena Dan complications of then. Fittingly, Frank Ocean's "Super Rich Kids" plays at the end to add to the vibes.

Dan complications of old times.

"She is a stranger who has found herself in your friend group," one character warns, "with your boyfriend."
Lots of sexual tension appears to be on the menu, as the trailer shows an apparent threesome, an unplanned kiss and a pair of characters waking up in bed together.
"Did you miss me? I know I've missed you." - XOXO Gossip Girl
