Apparently these deleted scenes were too X-rated for 00s TV. The creators have previously commented on the show’s lack of diversity, with Safran telling Vulture in 2017 that the only things he regrets are “not as much representation for people of colour and gay story lines”, as well as “not showing Chuck finger Blair and the dildos and other sexual stuff”. Safran also confirmed that the new Gossip Girl will take place in the same universe as the original, again following students at Constance Billard School for Girls.
Social media will also play a much bigger role in the reboot, as the initial series ended shortly after Instagram began to take off IRL. It is very much dealing with the way the world looks now, where wealth and privilege come from, and how you handle that.” “There’s a lot of queer content on this show. “This time around the leads are nonwhite,” Safran continued. Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szohr) was the only POC protagonist, while Serena’s brother Eric (Connor Paolo) had the only queer storyline. All six of the main characters – Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester), Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively), Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick), Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley), Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford), and Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen) – were straight, white, and cisgender. “I was the only gay writer I think the entire time I was there.”Īs well as an absence of diversity behind the scenes, the main cast of the original Gossip Girl notably lacked people of colour and LGBTQ+ storylines. “There was not a lot of representation the first time around on the show,” writer and executive producer Joshua Safran said at Vulture Festival yesterday (November 10). Set eight years after the original show ended, this time the creators are determined to more accurately reflect the world of New York teens – meaning fans can finally expect a more diverse cast. In July, it was announced that iconic 00s show Gossip Girlis returning for a new ten-part series.
