Last year,
HBO announced that they would be revamping the hit CW series,
“Gossip Girl”, and now we finally have some word about the lead
cast of A-Listers of the Upper East Side!
The cast is
full of up-and-coming stars who are sure to cause a stir once the
new series premieres. Although only one of the character names has
been revealed, we’re already certain that this reboot is
going to be amazing.
Here’s
a quick run-down of each of the new stars to get you prepped for
the show!

Emily
Alyn Lind was the first reveal of the series and is set to
play Audrey, who has been in a long-term relationship but is
beginning to question her other options.
Lind is known
mostly for her role as Amanda in “Revenge” but also has a lot of
other roles in her back pocket. Most recently, she played Snakebite
Andi in Doctor Sleep.
If we had to
guess, we’d bet Lind’s character is an heir to the
Constance Billard social throne…

We were SO
excited to hear about this casting because Tavi
Gevinson is a perfect human being.
She was the
founder & editor of the online teenage magazine,Rookie, which is no longer in publication, but made a huge
stir in its lifetime. Gevinson was only 12 when she createdRookie and soon after was being invited to New York
Fashion Week and Paris Fashion Week.
Although her
acting repertoire is sparse, we’re certain that her knowledge
of fashion and amazing style will help her fit in perfectly with
the Upper East Side.

Thomas Doherty made a
name for himself as Captain Hook’s son in Disney Channel’sDescendants movies as well as the Disney+ TV series “The
Lodge”. You may have seen him more recently on Hulu’s “High
Fidelity” as the dreamy indie boy-band singer, Liam.
He definitely
gives off some Chuck Bass vibes, but let’s face it, no one
could even come close to Chuck. Regardless, we’re still super
excited to see what Doherty’s character brings to the
show!

To be honest,
we really don’t know that much about the Mexican-American
actress Zion Moreno, but we’re excited to
find out more!
What we do
know is that Moreno was recently in the music video for
“Fleur” by Melanie Martinez, and based
off of her instagram, she definitely seems like a sweetheart with
some major Jenny Humphrey qualities.

Adam
Chanler-Berat‘s background is mostly in theatre, having
been in many Broadway shows like Next to Normal, Peter
and the Starcatcher, and Saint Joan.
He began to
do TV and film roles in 2006 with an episode of “Law and Order” and
later starred alongside Vince Vaughn inDelivery Man.
We really
don’t have any guesses about what his character might be
like, so you’ll just have to tune in when the show
premieres!
Aside from
the confirmed leads mentioned above, some other faces you can
expect to see include Whitney Peak(Molly’s Game), Eli Brown (“Pretty
Little Liars: The Perfectionists”), Johnathan
Fernandez (“Lethal Weapon”), and Jason
Gotay (“Peter Pan Live!”). With a line-up like this, we
are so so excited for the next generation of Gossip Girl!
