Hold on to your headbands, a Gossip Girl reboot could be on the horizon, some media outlets are reporting.

CW president Mark Pedowitz, from the network that brought us the hit ‘XOXO’ franchise 11 years ago, sent fans into a frenzy at the Television Critics Association press tour.

“There’s a discussion, but I don’t know if we’re there yet,” he said when asked about the possibility of a revival, according to TV Live.

“It don’t know what it would be. A lot is up to Warner Bros. and (executive producers) Josh Swartz and Steph, ‘cause you don’t want to do anything without them.”

Manhattan high-school students Serena van der Woodsen played by Blake Lively, Blair Waldorf(Leighton Meester), Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley), Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick), Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford) and Junny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen) graced our screens in 2007, giving an insight into fictional lives of the Upper East Side.
