In the new interview, Westwick talked about how excited he was to learn more about Chuck Bass’s life years later. He said, “It would be super interesting to see where Chuck Bass is… anything is possible in this world.” He knew it would be hard to get the cast back together, but he left the door wide open. This isn’t the first time he’s hinted at a revival. In 2023, at the Red Sea Festival, he pitched a story idea based on fan interactions.
The first CW show ran for six seasons from 2007 to 2012. It followed elite teens in Manhattan as they dealt with scandals that were told by an anonymous blogger. Along with stars like Blake Lively, Penn Badgley, and Taylor Momsen, Westwick’s Chuck changed from a scheming playboy to Blair Waldorf’s (Leighton Meester) loyal partner. A new cast for the 2021 HBO reboot lasted two seasons before it was canceled.
Westwick talked about happy memories, like scenes in a limo with Meester, which he called the best part of his career. Cecily von Ziegesar, the author of the books, is working on a new novel about Blair that takes place decades later, which has led to more speculation about a spinoff. His comments play into the ongoing demand for original cast members to come back.
