“You would think that being in my position, I know what rules are on sets when they say closed sets, you know,” Gellar admitted during a Tuesday appearance on Live With Kelly and mark. “So my husband’s starring in the movie and it was thanksgiving so I took our kids to Australia to go out there and visit him. And I was sitting on set and I was like, ‘Oh what a great picture,’ and then I posted it.”
The actress, who boasts a significantly larger Instagram following than the reboot’s official account, later learned that her post had inadvertently spoiled the surprise.
“Then I found out that they hadn’t posted any pictures from the set yet — hadn’t announced they started filming,” she explained with a laugh.”Yeah … that was an ‘Oops! My bad!’”
co-host Kelly Ripa playfully chimed in, highlighting the irony of Gellar’s accidental reveal.
