The second season of the hit period drama is set to premiere on Apple TV+ next month
Gossip Girl icon Layton Meester looks unrecognisable from her time as Blair Waldorf in the stunning trailer for the much-anticipated second season of the drama The Buccaneers from the Smash Hits era.
Kickstarted on Apple TV+ in 2023, the gorgeous saga took the scene of London nobles to seize hearts first and target wealthy husbands by portraying the misfortunes of American female clergy during a gorgeous gold plated era.
Instead of captivating the British elite, they saw their brave and vibrant attitude gaining infamous name as delightful hell climbers in the starch collars of the upper crust of London.
Released today (Thursday, May 22nd), the trailer gives viewers a thrilling peek at the role of Nell.
The plot surrounding Nell has the fans pondering if Meester plays Nan’s natural mother, and they’ll plunge both the former Gossip Girl Shenanigan and the Buccaneers into frenzy for the next chapter.
On Reddit, one fan couldn’t contain himself.
On X (formerly Twitter), “The trailer for Buccaneers Season 2 really saved Layton Measter until the end, as Marvel reveals.”
Another enthusiast commented:
“So many thoughts…Mabel and Onoria…Lyzzie like a bride…Nan stands in her sister’s abuser…Leyton Meester cameo is spitting me out in the final moments…I love Girls’ Generation,” read the fan post.
Another EC viewer cried out, “Layton Meester was the last time we all cheered.”
Still mingled with the American elite in her latest role, Meester looks unrecognizable compared to Blair’s iconic portrayal in her fleeting appearance.
Always known for her perfect fashion sense, the Gossip Girl star captivates her as flannel in her gorgeous purple evening dress.

“And Ginny (Imogen Waterhouse) was on every front page and wanted her fetal invitation.
“All the girls had to mature quickly, so now they have to fight to hear their voices.
“Last time we got a taste of England, this time we’re taking part in a true feast.”
