Steve Marsi at .The long-rumored Gossip Girl spinoff will apparently center around younger versions of the characters Lily and Rufus, according to a new report in Star.
“The show will focus on the early romance between Lily van der Woodsen and Rufus Humphrey,” an insider says of the future Gossip Girl spinoff.
“It begins when they first meet, during a time when Rufus and his band are at the height of their career. The show will follow the high society and rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle in New York.”
None of the original Gossip Girl cast members will be leaving the show, says the insider: “two new actors will be hired to play the young Lily and Rufus."
Producers are reportedly planning to introduce the new, younger couple during a flashback scene in an upcoming episode of Gossip Girl this season.
No official announcement has been made, so for now this remains unconfirmed. But what do you think? Would you watch this Gossip Girl spin-off?
