Gossip Girl: There will be no reboot of the successful series before 2021

When a sequel to "Gossip Girl" was announced in March 2020 at the streaming provider HBO Max in March 2020, long-time fans were overjoyed. Because of the corona virus, the shooting is on hold. At Vulture, HBO Max boss Kevin Reilly (58) said: "Production has not started yet. The preparations have been completed and we are ready to start." Not being able to shoot because of the corona pandemic is "really disappointing" for him. Reilly therefore has no more precise information than the year 2021 ready for the fans.

Bumpy entry for HBO Max

This continues the ruined start of the streaming provider HBO Max, which starts in the United States on May 27. Already the new edition of "Friends" had to be postponed, according to "Variety" it could still be so far at the end of summer that at least the shooting got the green light. In Europe, the offer should also start from 2021, but with restrictions: In Germany, "Gossip Girl", like "Game of Thrones" before, could only be seen through the exclusive partner Sky.
