Jenny is tempted by a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet Tim Gunn, which could be a game changer for her future, although Blair made it perfectly clear that Little J was no longer welcome in Manhattan after what happened with Chuck. Meanwhile, Serena discovers something about Colin that may put an end to their relationship just as it was getting good.

There’s a sense of voyeurism, peering through an artificial dorm room window, watching the women inside and listening in on their conversation. Even knowing that it’s fake, face the right direction and you’d be sold that you’re standing in an average college hallway in Anytown, USA. Turn a corner, though, or look to the ceiling and the set reveals itself; a look-a-like dorm constructed on a soundstage at the Sony Pictures lot.

The ladies in question are Minka Kelly and Leighton Meester, best known for their starring television roles on Friday Night Lights and Gossip Girl, respectively. Their new film is The Roommate, a thriller that director Christian E. Christiansen promises will be chock full of Hitchcock-style suspense. In it, Kelly stars as a Sara, an art student attending a Los Angeles-based college. She’s randomly assigned a roommate in Meester’s Rebecca and, at first, the pair become fast friends. As the relationship develops, however, we learn of Rebecca’s mental instability, pushing her to a potentially deadly devotion to her new roommate.

Standing with a small group of fellow journalists in the soundstage shadows, we’re all creepers to a bedroom scene that has Sara coming home to find Rebecca disheveled and hysterical. She’s been attacked, Rebecca tells Sara, by a stranger on the street. He knocked her down and hit her and she barely got away. Concerned, Sara pleads with Rebecca to call the police, but Rebecca refuses. She just wants Sara to stay in tonight and to not leave her alone.

“It’s not a psychological disorder,” says Leighton, who found herself doing some extensive medical research before playing the part, ”it’s a character disorder…It’s all neurological, but it can be helped I think. I talked to a couple of doctors about it and people who specialize in characters disorders like that. Nothing is set in stone so it’s really hard to say exactly what goes into being that kind of person. I was asking doctors, ‘Well, what happened to her do you think? Was she abused or something?’ And he’s like ‘no, not necessarily. Nobody had to have any kind of past or anything. Somebody from a terrible family could grow up great and vice-versa’. In her case, she does come from what seems like a pretty good family. She just has this issue. It could even be genetic, an imbalance in chemicals.”

“We know Leighton from ‘Gossip Girl’ where she is kind of the bad girl,”explains Christiansen. ”We wanted to bring that in. We didn’t want to bring in Gossip Girl, but we wanted to bring some of those qualities. No doubt people are going to see something quite different from her.”

Kelly, then, is tasked with providing a counterbalance to Leighton’s subtle madness. The character of Sara grew up in Des Moines, Iowa and has never been to a big city before. Though The Roommate is set is Los Angeles, Christiansen is quick to point out that geographical specifics never play a big role. The fact that the setting is major change for Sara’s character is the important fact. • Read full story…
