The official trailer for the Gossip Girl reboot has been released.
The clip features the voice of Kristen Bell, who also narrated the original series.
She says: “Did you miss me? I know I’ve missed you,” before ending the trailer with her iconic line: “XOXO Gossip Girl.”
Gossip Girl is described by one character as “an Instagram account that spies on” the students of Constance Billard, an exclusive private school located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
The revival series will largely focus on the lives of main characters Audrey Hope, Zoya Lott and Otto ‘Obie’ Bergmann IV.
Lead actress Emily Alyn Lind will play ‘Audrey’, alongside Whitney Peak, who plays ‘Zoya’, and Eli Brown, who stars as ‘Otto’.
The cast also includes Tavi Gevinson, who plays ‘Kate Keller’, Jordan Alexander, who stars as ‘Julien Calloway’, and Savannah Lee Smith, who plays ‘Monet de Haan’.
Zión Moreno will also play ‘Luna La’, Evan Mock stars as ‘Akeno “Aki” Menzies’, and Thomas Doherty plays ‘Max Wolfe’.
The show’s official summary reads: “Eight years after the original website went dark, a new generation of New York private school teens are introduced to the social surveillance of Gossip Girl.”
“The prestige series will address just how much social media-and the landscape of New York itself-has changed in the intervening years.”
The new series premieres on July 8 on HBO Max.
