How to Watch Gossip Girl Reboot in Australia

The much-awaited reboot of the popular teen drama, Gossip Girl, is finally here. A continuation of the original series, the new one explores a new Upper East Side substantially changed by social media with bolder characters and exploratory new themes.

The 2021 reboot of the show that catapulted stars Blake Lively and Leighton Meester to fame promises to offer riveting upgrades in the drama, fashion, and scandal department with a diversified cast and themes, as well as a new Upper East Side while staying true to the tone of Cecily von Ziegesar’s novels.

Don’t miss the premiere of Gossip Girl in Australia same time as the US, happening on Thursday, July 8 on BINGE. You can also stream new episodes on Foxtel, Foxtel Now, or Foxtel from Telstra.

What is Gossip Girl Reboot about?

Social media has since changed the landscape of New York’s privileged Upper East Side. Even when Serena van Der Woodsen and Blair Waldorf were running the show, fans knew the Manhattan scene where the wealthy navigated life and love was intense and unforgiving. You can expect the new Gossip Girl to push the envelope even further.

The reboot is set eight years after Gossip Girl’s website went dark, this time keeping an eye on a new generation of New York private schoolers whose privilege makes them targets of social scrutiny, which the earlier generation had also experienced.

Who stars in Gossip Girl Reboot?

Gossip Girl 2021 introduces a new cast that includes Jordan Alexander, Eli Brown, Thomas Doherty, Tavi Gevinson, Emily Alyn Lind, Evan Mock, Zion Moreno, Whitney Peak, and Savannah Lee Smith. Fans of the original series will be pleased to know that Kristen Bell returns as the voice of the omniscient blogger, Gossip Girl, alongside her glorious XOXO moments.

Is Gossip Girl Reboot any good?

Gossip Girl creator Joshua Safran promises inclusivity in this reboot, which he has already partly delivered with a diverse cast. His aim is to offer more representation, something that was missing in the first series. It is also slated to feature more adult content than The CW original courtesy of HBO Max’s less strict standards. Of course, the 2021 reboot is a timely narrative of today’s youth as they chase stardom, influence, and even acceptance via social media.
