And producers of the series have now admitted it was a ânecessityâ to have Kristen on board for the upcoming âGossip Girlâ reboot, as the show wouldnât be the same without the actressâ voice.
Showrunner Joshua Safran said: It wasn t really a conversation, [creators] Josh [Schwartz] and Stephanie [Savage] were like, if she doesn t want to do it, let s all walk away, said Safran. We went up to her and she was like, Of course I want to do it. And then, yeah, there s no Gossip Girl without Kristen. I mean, it s not just the voice, it s her whole being.
