Is Gossip Girl Reboot Season 2: Renewed Or Cancelled?
The comeback of Gossip Girl will not extend beyond its current second season. HBO Max has decided not to renew the revival for a third season, with the Season 2 finale on January 26th as the series finale.
Showrunner Joshua Safran announced Thursday on social media that GOSSIP GIRL would not be renewed for a second season on HBO Max. He proceeded,
“We are currently looking for another home, but in this climate, that might prove an uphill [battle], and so if this is the end, at least we went out on the highest of highs. Thank you for watching, and I hope you’ll tune into the finale next Thursday to see how it all comes together.”

Everything About Gossip Girl
The original Gossip Girl series aired on the CW from 2007 to 2012 and was produced by Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage, based on Cecily von Ziegesar’s book series. It chronicled the inner workings of a top New York City prep school and spawned several stars, including Blake Lively and Penn Badgley.
Safran’s revival premiered on HBO Max in 2021 with an entirely new cast, while Kristen Bell reprised her role as the eponymous narrator. The new Gossip Girl differs from the previous version in several ways. Instead of keeping the identity of Gossip Girl a secret, the new show disclosed that instructors at the posh high school wrote the blogs.
The termination of Gossip Girl is part of a wave of cancellations, renewal reversals, and write-downs at Warner Bros. Discovery, the business formed by the April merger of WarnerMedia and Discovery Inc. The season 2 finale, likely the series conclusion, will air on HBO Max on January 26.
