'O.C.' characters for 'Gossip' spinoff?

Characters from The O.C. may appear in the Gossip Girl spinoff, reports Entertainment Weekly.

Creators Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage are reportedly toying with the idea of having a crossover between the two shows.

The spinoff will see Lily Van Der Woodsen move in with her sister in the San Fernando Valley after arguing with her parents. She then has to learn to adapt to a life without luxury, including swapping her private school for a public school.

Schwartz and Savage are discussing having Lily cross paths with earlier versions of O.C. characters Kirsten Nichol and Jimmy Cooper.
