Brittany Snow is officially getting some company on the credits of the up-coming Gossip Girl spin-off.
Andrew McCarthy, who starred in Pretty in Pink and St. Elmo's Fire in the 80s as part of the Brat Pack and most recently was seen on NBC's Lipstick Jungle, has signed on to play young Lily Rhodes' (before she was a van der Woodsen) father, Rick, a music company executive.
Can we get a drumroll please?
The new Gossip Girl spin-off will center around…
Lily and Rufus when they were young.
Ta-da.
Or is it wa-wa-waaaah?
