Chuck Bass
Charles Bartholomew Bass is a fictional character in the novel and television series Gossip Girl. In the TV series, he is portrayed by British actor Ed Westwick. Although he is a secondary antagonist in the original book series, the TV series elevates him to an antiheroic main character, and the male lead of the show, where he is noted for his financial ambition, hedonism and personal style.
Since they were children, Chuck has been best friends with Nate Archibald, Serena van der Woodsen and Blair Waldorf, who is his main romantic interest throughout the series. In the TV series, he is also step-brother to Serena and Eric van der Woodsen.
Charles Bartholomew Bass is introduced by author Cecily von Ziegesar in her Gossip Girl series of teen novels, the first of which was published in 2002. He got his nickname, Chuck Bass, from his signature chuckle in a bass tone, which often sounds like a raspy whisper. Chuck's role is initially that of an antagonist to the main characters. He is described as really handsome, tall, slim, muscular, dark and brooding with firm abs, naturally tanned skin, straight black hair and deep brown eyes. He resides with his family at the Plaza Hotel on the Upper East Side. Unlike in the television adaptation, Chuck Bass plays only a minor role in the book series (the main characters each get their own alternating chapters but he does not). He is the eldest son of billionaires Bartholomew (“Bart”) and Misty Bass and the heir of the Bass leather and luxury goods fortune and has a brother, Donald. He is an egocentric, arrogant, obnoxious, narcissistic, misogynistic, and spiteful character who attempts on several occasions throughout the saga to sexually assault his female classmates (like Kati Farkas, Serena and Jenny). Very attractive, he pursues a modeling career for a time. Most of the characters in the series despise him but because he is extremely wealthy, everyone tolerates his presence. He is described as having flamboyant fashion sense, with a penchant for scarves. Lazy and vain, Chuck's only interests are sex and money, and he is frequently chided by his father for lacking ambition and performing poorly in school.
As the story progresses, he reveals more of his bisexuality and even attempts to seduce Dan. He has a lot of flings with numerous girls and boys throughout the novels. It is revealed he lost his virginity to Georgina Spark, his third cousin, back in sixth grade. During his high school years, he attends Riverside Prep, a private boys’ school, with his best friends, Roger Paine and Jefferson Prescott. A careless student with mediocre grades, Chuck is not admitted to any of the universities he applies to during his senior year. His father then threatens to send him to military school but ultimately finds a compromise: he enrolls his rebellious son at Deep Springs College, known for its unconventional learning methods.
Chuck emerges after two years completely transformed and significantly mellowed before finishing his studies at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. By then, he is no longer the man he once was; he has become the complete opposite of his former self: kind, gentle, sensitive, polite to everyone, understanding, empathetic, thoughtful and protective.
During this time, he reconnects with Nate, who becomes his best friend, and later begins a romantic relationship with Blair that lasts 12 months. Chuck’s pet is a female snow monkey he received from Georgina Spark, Sweetie, whom he takes everywhere with him, dresses like himself and considers his best friend.
Constance Billiard School is an exaggerated version of Gossip Girl author Cecily von Ziegesar's alma mater, the Nightingale-Bamford School. It was revealed in preparation for the 2007 TV series debut, Josh Schwartz hired recent graduates of Ziegesar's alma mater to retool several characters.
Chuck Bass was then reconfigured as a more central character, an antiheroic playboy whose on-off relationship with Blair Waldorf serves as one of the show's major ongoing storylines. Chuck is the resident "bad boy" of the Upper East Side, and like Blair, is both vengeful and manipulative; the two often scheme elaborate plans together. As the show progresses, Chuck develops a softer side, specifically towards Blair, his chief love interest, and Lily, Eric, and Serena, his adoptive mother, brother, and sister.
