Sorry, Upper East Siders. That Gossip Girl reboot is going to have to wait. HBO Max's cheif content officer Kevin Reilly confirmed to Vulture today that the new Gossip Girl has not started shooting yet, and won't be ready for any release date in 2020 due to the pandemic. "They hadn't even started production yet; they were in pre-production and ready to roll," he said, meaning the show won't be ready to premiere until 2021.
