The small screen adaptation of Cruel Intentions will stream on Prime Video, and details have landed for the show.
Cruel Intentions is a seminal teen film of the 1990s, planting the story of Dangerous Liasons firmly in late twentieth century youth culture, with star making turns from Selma Blair, Ryan Phillipe and Reese Witherspoon
It’s also the film that helped launch the big screen career of Buffy star Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Now, Cruel Intentions is heading to the small screen in a fresh modern take (we assume). Many versions of a television adaptation have been attempted in the past, including a 2016 pilot which saw Gellar reprise her role, but ultimately none of them were commissioned.
At one stage, a television version did see the light of day, but it was released as Cruel Intentions 2, thanks to some hasty re-editing in post-production (and it didn’t share the lead cast of the film).

The new incarnation of Gossip Girl has been cancelled by HBO Max and will conclude this week. Series creator Josh Safran was saddened by the news, but not surprised. He suspected a cancellation was coming because of how expensive Gossip Girl is ("It takes a lot of money to look this good.") and because numerous HBO Max shows have been cancelled recently.
Starring Jordan Alexander, Eli Brown, Thomas Doherty, Tavi Gevinson, Emily Alyn Lind, Evan Mock, Zion Moreno, Whitney Peak, and Savannah Lee Smith, the sequel series follows a new group of private school teens living on the Upper East Side. The original version of Gossip Girl aired for six seasons on The CW before concluding in 2012.

Hey, Upper Eastsiders: HBO Max’s “Gossip Girl” has been canceled, and its series finale will drop on the streamer Jan. 26.
Season 1 premiered in July of 2021, and though it received a critics’ score of 38 on Rotten Tomatoes, Variety‘s Caroline Framke praised it, writing the show “does immediately address one issue that plagued the previous ‘Gossip Girl’ by flipping it on its head in a way that energizes the new one. This time, there will be no guessing games as to who Gossip Girl might be — at least not for the audience.” Season 2 jumped higher on Rotten Tomatoes, but based on fewer reviews.

We root for heroes, but a TV show needs villains.
2022 had plenty of manipulators and monsters to keeping us riveted while make our skin crawl.
These characters are vile, and we wouldn't have them any other way.
Check out TV Fanatic's picks for the villains of 2022 we love to hate.
Monet de Hann - Gossip Girl (HBO Max)
Monet was on the periphery of the first season of the reboot, but the writers clearly understood Savannah Lee Smith was the strongest cast member and rewarded her with a deliciously villainous arc on Gossip Girl Season 2.
Monet is one of the richest characters on TV, and despite her mean streak on full display, there are some redeeming qualities.
This type of character is difficult to pull off, but I can't wait to see what becomes of Monet beyond the second season.
Hopefully, we get a third season!

2022 had plenty of manipulators and monsters to keeping us riveted while make our skin crawl.
These characters are vile, and we wouldn't have them any other way.
Check out TV Fanatic's picks for the villains of 2022 we love to hate.
Monet de Hann - Gossip Girl (HBO Max)
Monet was on the periphery of the first season of the reboot, but the writers clearly understood Savannah Lee Smith was the strongest cast member and rewarded her with a deliciously villainous arc on Gossip Girl Season 2.
Monet is one of the richest characters on TV, and despite her mean streak on full display, there are some redeeming qualities.
This type of character is difficult to pull off, but I can't wait to see what becomes of Monet beyond the second season.
Hopefully, we get a third season!

Just when I was prepared to rule Gossip Girl out for good, Gossip Girl (2021) Season 2 Episode 3 was a pleasant surprise.
The episode featured everything you'd expect from an hour in the Gossip Girl universe, and it certainly left me wanting more.
The strongest aspect of "Great Reputations" was the pacing. My biggest qualm with the reboot has been overstuffed episodes, but this was the first time it felt every scene was necessary to advance the plot.
We'll start with Monet because she continues to be the main attraction.
One of the biggest concerns with Monet entering her villain era was that she would be straight-up evil and one-note. However, the writers go above and beyond to give Monet conviction. Honestly, I couldn't imagine the series without her at this stage.
Savannah Lee Smith is comfortable as this young woman determined to make significant changes, and while Monet's mean streak was on display throughout "Great Reputations,...

Spotted: there's a new "Gossip Girl" queen bee on the rise, and she's wasting no time kicking off her hostile takeover. After an explosive season one finale, HBO Max's "Gossip Girl" returned with more chaotic drama on Dec. 1, and this time around, Julien (Jordan Alexander) isn't the one running things over at Constance. In season two, she has a hard time holding onto her influence with her sidekick turned enemy Monet (Savannah Lee Smith) gunning for her No. 1 spot.
"We kind of wanted the cold hard b*tch that would not stop at anything to get to the top."
The last season of "Gossip Girl" attempted to redefine the infamous high school mean girl trope with some overly vindictive ploys orchestrated by Julien's minions Monet and Luna (Zión Moreno), but one of them has upgraded to a more sinister role in season two. With Luna and Julien on the...

Monet de Haan’s ascension to power has been one of Gossip Girl‘s more frustrating slow burns, but the fandom’s collective patience is finally rewarded in the show’s second season premiere, which ends with a fiery declaration of war.
In the first of two episodes now streaming on HBO Max, Julien’s decision to rethink her future as an influencer comes as a slap in the face to Monet, whose tireless efforts were largely responsible for the success of her personal brand.

Hey, Upper East Siders, Gossip Girl is back and she’s meaner than ever.
Ahead of the season two premiere of HBO Max’s Gossip Girl reboot, creator Joshua Safran and stars Grace Duah, Savannah Lee Smith, Emily Alyn Lind, Evan Mock and Eli Brown stopped by NYC’s Prospect Park Nitehawk Cinema on Wednesday for an advance screening of the first episode and a Q&a.
During the conversation, the team opened up about what viewers can expect to see in season two, and Duah, who plays fan-favorite character Shan, didn’t hold back.
“This season is bigger, badder, but it’s mean,” she said. “I think that’s why you guys are in your seats, I think that’s why millions of people are in their seats at home. They want to see people be mean. And you’re gonna see that,...

Outside of the delicious drama our favorite Upper East Siders deal with daily, what makes the "Gossip Girl" reboot great is the chemistry between the cast. It's easy to believe that Julien, Audrey, Monet, Luna, Max, Aki, and Obie are in fact longtime friends because their respective actors - Jordan Alexander, Emily Alyn Lind, Savannah Lee Smith, Zion Moreno, Thomas Doherty, Evan Mock, and Eli Brown - are also friends in real life. Even the addition of Whitney Peak's Zoya to the characters' group of friends feels genuine because of her magnetic connection with them.
Friendships and relationships (both old and new) are a big part of "Gossip Girl"'s dramatic second season, which kicked off on Dec. 1 - just take it from the cast. "Everything is a lot more intense this season, and we're kind of getting to see different sides and different stories from everybody," Peak tells Popsugar.

Haven't you heard? "Gossip Girl" is back for another chaotic season on HBO Max, and we've got all the deets.
The first season ends with a disastrous New Year's Eve celebration that leaves Julien (Jordan Alexander) cleaning up a major mess with her ex Obie (Eli Brown) and sister Zoya (Whitney Peak). Not to mention, the will-they-won't-they throuple with Aki (Evan Mock), Audrey (Emily Alyn Lind), and Max (Thomas Doherty) finally get the green light (though it surely won't be smooth sailing for them). The biggest surprise of them all, however - aside from Gossip Girl teaming up with Julien to expose everyone's dirty little secrets - is Monet (Savannah Lee Smith) gunning for the queen bee title now that Julien has turned over a new leaf, but there are plenty more shocking reveals ahead in season two, so buckle up for the ride.

Spoiler Alert: This post contains plot details from the first two episodes of Gossip Girl Season 2.
Attention Upper East Siders: Gossip Girl is back, and she has some unfinished business.
Season 2 of the HBO Max series debuted Thursday with two episodes, which ease viewers nicely back into the drama at Constance Billard. Now that we’ve had some time to acquaint ourselves with this new cast of super rich kids and their secrets, Season 2 will show us “the kids became this way for a reason,” creator and executive producer Joshua Safran told Deadline.
“Essentially what would happen in the first Gossip Girl was the first half of the season would be, ‘These kids are disasters and they’re destroying each other.’ And in the second half of every season, we know the reason is because of their parents,” Safran said, explaining that the two-season story arc is mirrored after one,...

Back when the original Gossip Girl premiered in 2007, the series thrived on the feud between two best friends.
There were several attempts to rejig that formula on Gossip Girl (2021) Season 1, but the attempts largely fell flat.
Thankfully, Gossip Girl (2021) Season 2 Episode 1 and Gossip Girl (2021) Season 2 Episode 2 introduced us to a feud for the ages that will surely steer this reboot of the hit CW drama in the right direction.
Monet proved cunning in the freshman season, flawlessly manipulating Julien from the sidelines to make everyone believe Julien was making these decisions.
But along the way, Julien's priorities changed, and she realized there's more to life than keeping up appearances.
It's quite the juxtaposition from the social media-obsessed young woman we met back on Gossip Girl (2021) Season 1 Episode 1, but it showcases solid progression.
Julien is at a very different stage of her life when we pick back up with her. She's...

HBO Max's Gossip Girl debuted to a tepid response in 2021, but the series managed to find its footing by the end of the season.
The second season, debuting December 1, improves in many areas, but some of the issues that plagued the freshman season remain.
We'll start with the good. Savannah Lee Smith, who was largely on the periphery of Gossip Girl Season 1, is now front and center, where she belongs.
Monet has evolved from a plot device in Julien's story to a full-blown villain who thrives on chaos.
Armed with the desire to dethrone Julien and take the Upper East Side by storm, we get a feud that serves as a worthy follow-up to the early dynamic between Blair and Serena from the original series.
You can tell off the bat that Savannah is having the time of her life playing this more nuanced villain, and her reign of terror...

It might seem like we're taking the same ride we did in season 1, but season 2 of HBO Max's "Gossip Girl" reboot doubles down on the things it does well and expands on those strengths to bolster its mean-girl vibe to new heights. It's just as fun and flirts as much with rebellion and status as it ever was and did — even during the original 2007 series — and it effectively raises the stakes this season, which is really as much as you can ask of a show that is the epitome of entertainment for the sake of being entertained. In the early days at least, the original series was looked at as just that type of product and nothing more.
The "Gossip Girl" of today, however, always has a lot to say about societal issues its characters benefit from and contribute to — but it has yet to lose the salacious spark that...

You know you love Georgina Sparks.
Michelle Trachtenberg is back as iconic villain Georgina in Season 2 of HBO Max’s “Gossip Girl” revival series. The new Gg, Kate (Tavi Gevinson), comes face to face with Og baddie Georgina after she sneaks into her apartment for a moment of reckoning. As Amy Winehouse’s “You Know I’m No Good” plays in the background, it’s clear Season 2 will be a battle to the social death.
The role marks Trachtenberg’s return to acting after four years, following her voice-acting turn in TV series “Human Kind Of.” Her last on-camera role was in 2016 TV movie “Sister Cities.” Trachtenberg formerly played Georgina a decade ago, with her final “Gossip Girl” appearance in 2012. The character’s son, Milo, played by Azhy Robertson, appeared in the first season of the new “Gossip Girl” as the hacker Zoya (Whitney Peak) hires to take down her...

Gossip Girl Season 2 looks like the show we were promised ahead of its debut last year.
HBO Max dropped the official trailer on Thursday, and it looks more scandalous than ever.
The original series was known for its Omg-worthy moments, and if the trailer is any indication, there'll be plenty to go around in the second season.
“It’s the second semester of junior year and Gossip Girl is leaving no stone unturned in her effort to control the scandalous lives or spin the scandalous lies of Manhattan’s elite,” the official logline reads.
“She’s learned a thing or two from her first go-around — namely what her audience wants, they shall get."
"It’s time for her to turn the heat up on what’s been simmering as well as look at her own impact and how she can make it more catastrophic than it was before. Even if...

HBO Max’s Gossip Girl season two is welcoming back original cast member Michelle Trachtenberg, reprising her role as Georgina Sparks. And the first three official photos from the upcoming second season even includes one showing Michelle as Georgina!
In an interview with Teen Vogue, showrunner Joshua Safran explained what Trachtenberg’s Georgina will add to the mix.
“What she brought to the original series was anarchy,” stated Safron. “She’s an anarchist. She’ll just do anything and just for any reason she decides. So we brought that energy to the first show, and then we brought that energy back to this one. She’s the same, and that’s what I think is so fun, that Michelle is older, we’re all older, Georgina is older yet has the exact same energy. She’s out of time.

The second season of HBO Max's reboot of Gossip Girl has been in production for a while now, and the latest tease hints at a big comeback.
The social media accounts for the series shared a video of a brunette woman sitting in an empty theater, clearly enjoying what is happening on stage.
“It only takes one spark to start a fire,” the video teases.
In the caption, the message continues: “And I have a feeling that this city is about to burn.”
The video quality is not great, which is probably intentional to keep fans guessing the mystery person's identity.

Given the "spark" and the fact that this person is going to upend the lives of the Upper East Siders, it certainly sounds like Georgina Sparks is coming back into the fold.

Jordan Alexander was completely oblivious to how many few faces similar to hers were on “Gossip Girl,” the mid-aughts spectacle that dared to wonder what the children of New York’s upper echelon got up to after school.
The original CW series revealed in six juicy seasons that these extracurriculars included under-age debauchery at Butter, finessing your way into the Ivy League and perfecting the Machiavellian art of sabotage while wearing a lot of headbands. However, it did not show many Black characters joining in on the iconic fashion or the petty predicaments caused by Kristen Bell’s tattling voiceovers at the start of every episode.
“I was so completely unaware that there was such a lack of representation while watching because I was so used to seeing that — an all-white cast,” says Alexander, who stars in HBO Max’s reboot of the series as protagonist Julien Calloway, a mixed-race,...

If you've been counting down the days until the return of Gossip Girl, we have some good news.
HBO Max is switching up the rollout strategy for the second half of Gossip Girl (2021) Season 1, which means we will be getting the episodes sooner.
The series was initially set to return with the seventh episode of the season on Thursday, November 25, but the streamer will now have episodes 7, 8, and 9 available to stream.
The season will wrap the following week with another three episodes available to binge-watch.
Fans were less than impressed with the midseason hiatus halfway through the freshman season, so this makes up for it, we guess.
We liked watching week-to-week because it allowed us to dissect every single moment of the reboot.

HBO Max is switching up the rollout strategy for the second half of Gossip Girl (2021) Season 1, which means we will be getting the episodes sooner.
The series was initially set to return with the seventh episode of the season on Thursday, November 25, but the streamer will now have episodes 7, 8, and 9 available to stream.
The season will wrap the following week with another three episodes available to binge-watch.
Fans were less than impressed with the midseason hiatus halfway through the freshman season, so this makes up for it, we guess.
We liked watching week-to-week because it allowed us to dissect every single moment of the reboot.
