This isn’t the first time the Ugandan actress has been seen on the small screen, she recently starred opposite Kiernan Shipka in The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and featured in the 2017 Aaron Sorkin film Molly’s Game. Filming of Gossip Girl is expected to start this year, and Peak will star opposite other newcomers Eli Brown, Zión Moreno and Emily Alyn Lind.
