While reboots and reunions seem to be a thing of the times, not all our favorite shows are returning. We got Gilmore Girls, Fuller House and many more, but there are only so many shows Netflix has the budget for. So where does our beloved Gossip Girl fit into this equation?
GG reunion talk certainly hasn’t died down. As recently as April, Blake Lively agreed to revisit the series if the opportunity presented itself. But one of her costars is not so keen on the idea. On Wednesday, Ed Westwick told Radio Times that he’s more than ready to move on. “It feels like we only just finished! And I did so much with that character—it’s played out, man. It’s done.”
Gossip Girl ran for a solid six seasons, transforming from a newbie to one of The CW’s biggest hits ever. There’s so much that we miss about the show, but Chuck Bass (and his jawline) is definitely in our top five. Can you even imagine the show without him? When everything else fell to pieces, we could always rely on the love of Chuck and Blair.
According to Ed, the only thing that could change his mind about the reunion is a massive payday. If Netflix sent “a gazillion dollars” his way, the actor said he couldn’t help but accept the offer. You hear that, Netflix? Time to pull through.
In the meantime, you can watch Ed play another bad boy (with his true British accent) on White Gold and hopelessly pray for Chuck Bass to re-emerge.Â
