Hello Upper East Siders! Thisย just in, a new generation of preppy high schoolers arises with the Gossip Girl reboot. What can you expect? Will there be drama? Who will find love? Well, weโve got all the gossip right here for you.
The show boasts a diverse cast and introduces several characters from different ethnic backgrounds and different sexual orientations.
The new Queen B of Constance Billardย is Julien Calloway, played by newcomer Jordan Alexander. Julien is a smart social media influencer and will stop at nothing to get what she wants, even if it means playing dirty. She reunites with her half-sister Zoya Lott, played by Whitney Peak. Zoya is quite the opposite of Julien, she is more reserved, has highย morals, and as the new girl at Constance Billard, she has enormous trouble fitting in. It's like we always secretly wished Blair and Serena were sisters...oh well, moving on.
Obieย Bergmann, played by Eli Brown, is the dashing โprinceโ of Constance Billardย and serves as a love interest for both Jordan and Zoya. Yikes, itโs getting spicy already. Obie is rich and quite a philanthropist, and has girls falling over their heels forย him. We're getting some Chuckย Bass vibes here. Oh, the nostalgia.

You can expect some major love triangles from the show, so brace yourself. And as you guessed it, Gossip Girl is ready to expose everyoneโs secrets withย the touch of a button!
