With Blake Lively starring in box office favourite films, Leighton Meester being all loved up with husband Adam Brody and Ed Westwick making all our dreams come true in White Gold, we can’t help but wonder where the F the rest of the cast are.

Well, we’ve done some digging and turns out he’s about to return to our screens after a five year acting hiatus as the leading man in a new show called 'You'.
