Dynasty is in good hands because the talented Josh Schwartz is developing the series. Schwartz is best known for first producing the The O.C. and for later developing Gossip Girl. Furthermore, the cast has been revealed and viewers will soon be seeing familiar faces. Nathalie Kelley, best known as Grace from UnREAL, will star a main role playing the character Cristal Flores. Entertainment Online has named her to be one of the “breakout stars you need to know” for fall 2017 television. Elizabeth Gillies, previously known as Jade West on Victorious, will play Fallon Carrington. Critics are continuously drawing comparisons between the personality of Fallon and Gossip Girl’s Blaire Waldorf. Although Gillies has expressed concerns about how these are “big shoes to fill”, the producers showed confidence in her abilities having given her the role just one day after her initial script reading. Furthermore, the costume designer is Meredith Markworth-Pollack, who was previously the assistant costume designer for Gossip Girl. Clothing is such an important aspect of Dynasty as it puts emphasis on wealth helping further develop the storyline. Meredith will create a wardrobe for her cast that displays a modern spin of ruffles and giant headwear.
