The reboot is set eight years after the original&#39;s finale, and will follow a new generation of privileged teens who are introduced to the Gossip Girl site.

The actress might only be 17, but she already has a long list of film and TV credits to her name. Lind made her onscreen debut at the age of just six,&nbsp;when she portrayed a younger Dakota Fanning in The Secret Life Of Bees. From there, she played Shirley Temple in Martin Scorsese&#39;s movie J. Edgar, and nabbed recurring roles in the TV dramas Revenge and All My Children. She also starred in Netflix&#39;s Bella Thorne-led horror film The Babysitters, and The Shining&#39;s 2019 sequel Doctor Sleep.&nbsp;

A true multi-hyphenate, Lind&nbsp;released her first official single &quot;Castles&quot; in November of last year, and&nbsp;she frequently shares song covers and guitar solos with her 123K followers on her Instagram (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/emilyalind/?hl=en">@emilyalind</a>).&nbsp;

Lind hails from a real showbiz family. Her father is an assistant director and producer,&nbsp;and her mother is veteran actress Barbara Alyn Woods, who played Deb Scott on nine seasons of One Tree Hill. Lind&#39;s&nbsp;older sister Natalie has had major roles in Gotham and The Goldbergs, while her younger sister Alyvia, starred in the 2018 romantic comedy Overboard.&nbsp;

No concrete date has been given for the reboot, but we&#39;re sure to get more casting news soon, and producers have noted that the series will have more inclusive casting than the original. So stay tuned!
