Crawford Thinks Gossip Character Should Up End Up With an Older Woman

Gossip Girl’s very own Chace Crawford is one lucky man as he got to lip service some of the fine ladies in the cast. However, it turns out that the 22-year-old actor has someone else in mind when asked who he thinks should his character end up with.

“I’m thinking Lily van der Woodsen,” Crawford joked in an interview with Fuse TV’s The Sauce. Lily is the mother of the show’s lead female character, Selena, played by Blake Lively. “I’m eyeballing that. That would be great. I’m thinking that — the older woman.”

Chace Crawford plays Nate Archibald in The CW’s Gossip Girl. Nate is a teen heartthrob involved with Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) in an on-again-off-again relationship, but secretly harbors feelings for Serena. He has made some bad decisions along the way, but “has a little bit of a moral backbone.”

Crawford added, “It’s good to play that. He’s so conflicted.”

However, when Crawford received Gossip Girl, he did not pay too much attention to it, as he thought is was just “typical teen stuff” upon reading the script. However, as soon as production started and the ensemble cast was formed, Crawford was immediately drawn to the depth of the show, and how it has been slowly and surely growing a steady fan base. Moreover, he seemed to enjoy the bond he shares with fellow cast members.

Gossip Girl is Chace Crawford’s first television series, but he has previously worked on films Loaded and The Covenant. He will soon be appearing in an independent horror/thriller film entitled She Lived, with Haley Bennett of Music & Lyrics.

“It was really fun,” Crawford said in talking about the film. “Haley Bennett plays this sort of psychologically disturbed [character]. She thinks she’s thinks she’s schizo, but it turns out her parents sold her soul to the devil. It’s like a cultish-type thing.”

Crawford admits that thought he has not been into television productions much, he still enjoys film better, and plans to pursue this in the future.

“Television feels a little bit restrictive, so far as the dialogue, and there’s really no improv. The scenes are a little bit shorter,” Crawford said. “So, films are kind of where my head’s at… in the future. I love the show though, hopefully that lasts.”
