(NewsNation) — If you were missing Blair Waldorf in your life, you’re not alone. Lucky for us, Leighton Meester is returning to TV once again with The CW. Only this time, she’s exchanging her tiara for a pair of handcuffs.
Her new show, “Good Cop/Bad Cop,” premiering Feb. 19 on The CW, is a light-hearted mystery series that follows Lou Hickman, played by Meester, a detective working in the fictional small town of Eden Vale. When things start to go awry, Lou suggests to the police chief, played by Clancy Brown, that she get a new partner. The chief agrees and wrangles her estranged brother, Henry, played by Luke Cook, for the job.
Although he’s good at his job, Henry is considered the black sheep of the family and struggles to get along with others — unlike Lou, who uses her loveable, quirky attitude to her advantage with the town. Of course, this makes for a dysfunctional yet funny family dynamic.
In a recent interview with The CW, when both Meester and Cook were asked about the hardest part of playing siblings, Meester replied, “Was it hard playing siblings? I don’t think so.”
Cook agreed and said that during filming, guest stars in the pilot said, “It feels like you’ve been working together forever.”
“We look exactly alike,” Meester added.
The two brought up the theory that people who are dating or married look alike, with Meester admitting she feels that way about her husband, Adam Brody.
“I think that, I see that, I feel that way in my own (relationship),” Meester said.
