A promising day forGossip Girlfans!
In an interview this week withFox 5 New York’s Rosanna Scotto, Leighton Meester, 35, teased fans if she’d be returning to her iconic role as Blair Waldorf in the newGossip Girlreboot.
“I don’t know maybe,” she said, “I will say, you know… I’ve watched the new one, I do think it’s really awesome.”
The actress also spoke about how she feels about the new cast. “You know, I’m happy for them. I feel like they’re doing a whole new thing… and I don’t think that we don’t fit in but — or I can only speak for myself — I don’t feel like I don’t fit in,” she said.
As for her participation, Meester said, “But I will say… I feel really good sort of sitting back and leaving it to the kids, to the young, new generation, they’re doing so awesome.”
The star added, “So, that’s all I’ll say, for now, you know. You never say never.”

Though her answer leaves a mystery to her reprisal as Blair, fans can catch Meester in Netflix’sThe Weekend Away, which premiered last week.
In the interview, Meester also talked about what drew her to the role, including how she instantly connected with her character as a new mom. Meester shares two kids with her husband, actor Adam Brody.
“I had a 10-month-old and so I was really interested in the perspective and in whatever journey this new mother is gonna go through,” she said. “And then, of course, the other elements that are really fun because it’s a real suspense, it’s a real ‘whodunit’ and that was really exciting for me.”
The Weekend Awayis streaming now on Netflix.
