Listen up on the East Side, Gossip Girl reboot has a new throwing ball.

Based on the book by Cecily von Ziegesar as the original, the new show is set eight years after the parent series and will follow a new generation of New York school teens who will experience the social sensations of the Gossip Girl site.

Actress Kristen Bell returns as the voice of Gossip Girl. The new show will address just how social media – and the New York landscape itself – has changed in the years since. Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios are making the move.
The original series, which ran from 2007 to 2012, featured Blake Lively, Penn Badgley, Taylor Momsen, Leighton Meester, and Ed Westwick.
