A Gossip Girl reboot in the making

the reboot, which is just a 10-episode order right now, will follow a new group of Manhattan's elite rich kids. A new generation of private school teens is introduced to the watchful eye of Gossip Girl. Look for the series to "address just how much social media — and the landscape of New York itself — has changed in the intervening years."

Original series creators Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage are on board as executive producers. Joshua Safran, an original executive producer whose credits also include Quantico and Smash, is executive producing and writing the reboot.

There's no word on whether any of the original cast will be involved. Blake Lively, Penn Badgley, Chace Crawford, Leighton Meester, and Ed Westwick were among the original show's cast. Kristen Bell served as the voice of Gossip Girl, the narrator, on the original CW series.

Gossip Girl originally aired on The CW for six seasons from 2007-2012.
