Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick opens up about bringing Chuck Bass back for the reboot: 'It would be cool! I don't know if that's a direction they could go in though!'
Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick discusses whether he'd reprise his Chuck Bass role for the reboot. Based on the teen drama of the same name, which itself was based on the books by Cecily von Ziegesar, HBO Max’s revival of Gossip Girl debuted late last year. It takes place nearly a decade after the conclusion of the original series, centering on a new group of Manhattan private schoolers that fall under the watchful eye of the titular blogger.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Several actors from Gossip Girl reprised their roles for the HBO Max follow-up, including Zuzanna Szadkowski as Dorota Kishlovsky. Margaret Colin and Wallace Shawn also return to their respective roles as Blair’s mother and stepfather. That tradition will continue for Gossip Girl season 2, debuting December 1, as Michelle Trachtenberg will be back as Georgina Sparks.
The response to the new Gossip Girl has been bewilderment from both professional critics and fans of the original, something which the writers have indirectly addressed in their promotion of the upcoming season. A common complaint is that the plot momentum is often slowed down or otherwise entirely halted by halfhearted gestures of social progress that don’t feel authentic to the privileged space that the mostly wealthy and comfortable characters inhabit.
