Ready to feel old? The original CW Gossip Girl it worked for three entire seasons before the invention of Instagram. That means the teen stories from Serena and Blair are just as foreign to the experiences of today’s high school students as, like, Welcome back, Kotter. So when HBO Max announced in 2019 that it would revive the world of Gossip Girl for a new generation, executive producer and showrunner Joshua Safran told Vulture at the Vulture Festival 2019, “this time, the protagonists are not white. There is a lot of queer content in this program. ”Since then, casting announcements have been made, but no details about the characters have been released. On January 2, the Gossip Girl The first individual photos of the reboot characters, along with their names and mysterious one-word descriptors, were posted on the show’s official Instagram. It is an appropriate way to usher in a new era of Upper East Siders.
Julien Calloway (played by Jordan Alexander). “Influence.” Because influencers with the surname “Calloway” are always good drama.
Monet de Haan (played by Savannah Lee Smith). “Power.” Presumably, she will be defined as the old guard Queen Bee who is overtaken in a turnaround in Episode One, as she has only one episode credited to IMDB so far.
Luna La (played by Zion Moreno). “Style.” Everyone in the Instagram comments are hoping that Luna La will be their new Blair. We will believe it when we see the padded strip.
Max Wolfe (played by Thomas Doherty). “Freedom.” Extreme vibrations from Chuck Bass radiating from that. By “Freedom”, we can already say that he means “Headassery with Impunity”.
Audrey Hope (played by Emily Alyn Lind). “Grace.” Like, ballet, probably? Do you have a horse, definitely?
Kate Keller (played Tavi Gevinson). “Ambition.” While we’re excited about it, we also hope that Hollywood is offering Tavi other roles besides “teen”
Otto “Obie” Bergmann IV (played by Eli Brown). “Privilege.” Dan Humphrey looks with Nate Archibald’s means. Some kind of RiverdaleBergdorf and Goodman mashup style. Dangerous combinations, both.
Akeno “Aki” Menzies (played by Evan Mock). “Innocence.” Okay, so that keyword implies that he is the newbie to the school that comes from Brooklyn, or maybe he just moved to New York, and was not corrupted by the terrible Upper East Side methods. I got a scholarship on the cheek.
Zoya Lott (played by Whitney Peak) is “Perspective”. She may be the stranger looking inside or the friend of the group who was unaffected by the high school drama because she is dealing with Problems with a capital P in her family’s B plot.
