David Boreanaz just ignited a Buffy the Vampire Slayer debate on Instagram, adding more excitement around the anticipated sequel series. With a pilot order nearing at Hulu, fans of the series are excited about the possibility of another chapter in the Buffy universe. Adding fuel to that fire is Boreanaz's recent comment on Sarah Michelle Gellar's Instagram. In a post, Gellar shared two pictures from Paris, where she is sitting and posing, wearing a black leather jacket. Boreanaz, referencing Buffy's vampire love interests, took to the comments and asked

"Is that Angel's jacket or Spike's?"

The question triggered a slew of comments. While some hoped it was Angel's, and others rooted for the romance between Buffy and Spike, others suggested it was Buffy's own jacket– a theory we're happy to endorse. The comments were a testament to Buffy's enduring legacy and the show's committed fanbase.

Since its premiere, How I Met Your Mother has become an iconic TV sensation. The series aired for nine seasons starting in 2005 and ending in 2014 while Ted Mosby told his children the long story of meeting their mother. The show portrayed five friends’ experiences in Manhattan while they dealt with adulthood, careers, and relationships in their lives.

Himym established its success through its different storytelling features as well as its humor combined with the undeniable bond among the lead characters. The show designed its plot structure in a non-linear way. Its memorable dialogue and brainchild concepts, such as “Bro Code”, lived on as pop culture references after the series.

However, fans of the show wonder about the fates of the original show members who portrayed these TV characters years after the series finale aired.

On March 10, 1997, spunky teenager Buffy quit her high school cheer squad to fulfill her destiny of slaying vampires and demons (while accidentally falling in love with one particularly handsome immortal)—and the world was never the same. Joss Whedon's wildly popular television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer not only ran for seven seasons but launched successful careers for nearly all of its regular cast members.

Its spin-off series Angel garnered a large viewership and starred Buffy the Vampire Slayer's David Boreanaz. But, Boreanaz and Sarah Michelle Gellar would eventually secure lead roles in even more noteworthy television shows and movies, along with fellow show actors Alyson Hannigan, Seth Green, James Marsters, Michelle Trachtenberg, Anthony Head, Nicholas Brendon and many others. Since this '90s teen sci-fi/fantasy show debuted 28 years ago, the fan base has loyally followed their favorite cast members to horror movies, sitcoms, procedural dramas, and even an iconic animation series.

A Buffy Summers comeback is on the horizon, and it may be happening sooner than anticipated. Sarah Michelle Gellar is set to return for the as-yet-untitled Buffy the Vampire Slayer revival series, which is nearing a pilot order at Hulu. Gellar will reprise her role and executive produce. And in a recent interview, she gave fans many reasons to be excited.

And while Gellar won't lead the upcoming series — the show is set to follow a new slayer, after all — it remains a mystery if any of the other original cast members will return to reprise their roles. Sadly, we know that we won't see an on-screen family reunion between Buffy and her sister Dawn, as Michelle Trachtenberg, who depicted the younger Summers sister, passed away last month. While speaking with People, Gellar delivered the good news, as well as a call for patience from fans who are eagerly awaiting...

Every cent counts on a movie set, so it’s understandable that sometimes, a character’s outfit is simply plucked from the studio closet rather than sourced wholesale. After all, it’s not like anyone’s going to know that the heroine of this fall’s teen rom-com is wearing the same jeans as the heroine of last fall’s teen rom-com. Some costumes are so iconic, however, that the very idea of reusing them is both blasphemy and ballsy as hell.

They really thought we wouldn’t notice that…

Buffy the Vampire Slayeris truly a television show that's shaped the landscape of....well, TV. In addition to a mix of horror, humor, and heart that won over a long-lasting fanbase, Buffy the Vampire Slayer writers have gone on to shape other genre hits, including Battlestar Galactica, Daredevil, and Lost. But none of that would be possible without its cast, as Buffy the Vampire Slayer boasts arguably one of the best ensemble casts in television history. It turns out that one of those characters could have been very different, especially considering Alyson Hannigan wasn't the first choice for Buffy's best friend, Willow Rosenberg.

As the supernatural drama "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" gained in popularity over its 12-episode first season, the show inevitably wanted to get a bit bigger for its second installment. That included adding in new characters, some of whom had a tinge of the fantastical, even if they weren't vampires. To that end, consider Daniel Osbourne, better known as Oz. As played by Seth Green, Oz quickly became a valued member of the Scooby Gang while also falling in love with Willow Rosenberg (Alyson Hannigan), the charmingly nerdy member of the group and best friend of Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar). Oh yes, and, as it's soon revealed, Oz is a werewolf, too.

Oz was a big part of the show for its second and third seasons, falling further for Willow while attempting to tamp down his lupine sensibilities once every full moon. Unfortunately, he only made it into a few...

Buffy debuted on The WB and was based on the 1992 film of the same name, written by Joss Whedon. Sarah Michelle Gellar took over the titular role of Buffy Summers, who is the latest in a line of young Vampire Slayers. She is guided by a Watcher named Rupert Giles (Anthony Stewart Head), but also has the "Scooby Gang," her friends who help as she battles dark forces. What made the show stand out from other teenage series was the excellent dialogue, stories, acting, and more.

The show was a major hit and ran for seven seasons, ending in May 2003, although...

Original Buffy the Vampire Slayerstar Seth Green discusses a potential return for the upcoming sequel series.

Speaking to Comic Book, Green opened up about what it would take for him to return to the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer for a reprisal of his iconic role as Danile "Oz" Osbourne. "I love that character, and if there was more story to tell, I’d be there to tell it," Green said. "The upside of having Sarah [Michelle Gellar] involved so intimately with that revival is that she’s incredibly protective, not just with the quality of the work but the way people feel about it."

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is one of the most beloved television series of all time, and it shaped the current world of television through its expert blending of drama and supernatural stories. The series follows the adventures of teenage vampire slayer, Buffy Summers, and her friends as they fight to protect the town of Sunnydale from the evil forces unleashed by the local hellmouth. The Buffster and her Scooby Gang have become icons of pop culture, but an ill-fated pilot episode almost brought an end to the Slayer.

The television series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, rose from the grave of the critically and commercially panned 1992 film by the same name, starring Kristy Swanson. Creator Joss Whedon decided to pivot to television and completely retooled the concept, writing a new script, and bringing in an entirely new cast. Buffy fans will notice Alyson Hannigan, who plays Buffy’s best friend, Willow Rosenberg,...

Buffy the Vampire Slayerwas iconic from the time it premiered in 1997 until it aired its final episode in 2003. Even after over 20 years, the show still maintains an 85% RottenTomatoes score and an 8.3 IMDb rating – an impressive feat for any show, but especially for a supernatural teen drama. No matter how much time has passed, the show still has a dedicated fanbase and seems to only be gaining more and more fans as younger generations discover it through streaming services.

The sharp, witty dialogue, compelling characters, and a plot filled with supernatural thrills made Buffy a surefire hit, and it doesn’t seem like love for this show has lessened any since it ended 22 years ago. With the incredible amount of love viewers have shown for this show, it’s no surprise that rumors of a possible sequel series, reboot or new spin-off have persisted for years – but, to the disappointment of fans,...

Earlier this week the world received the sad news that beloved Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Gossip Girl actress Michelle Trachtenberg was found dead in her home at just 39 years old. Her passing prompted an outpouring of support from those that knew her best, and the fans who had grown up with her thanks to such films as Harriet the Spy and EuroTrip. While there was much speculation on social media as to why she died, the real reason will never be known.

Per Vulture, Trachtenberg's family has declined to have an autopsy performed on the late star for religious reasons. The New York City Medical Examiner has honored that request, and has thus ruled her death as "undetermined" on the official certificate. The NYPD believes that no foul play was involved in Trachtenberg's passing, so it is not being investigated as suspicious. She was found dead in her New...

Back in the days when television seasons had 20+ episodes per season, Carter Bays and Craig Thomas' hit sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" managed to wring nine seasons and 208 episodes out of its premise. With Josh Radnor as the series lead, Ted Mosby — whose older self, voiced by Bob Saget, is telling his kids an interminably long story about how he met their mom — and Jason Segel, Alyson Hannigan, Cobie Smulders, and Neil Patrick Harris as his best friends Marshall Eriksen, Lily Aldrin, Robin Scherbatsky, and Barney Stinson, the show explores Ted's love life in New York City as he tries to find "the one." To say it takes him a long time is a serious understatement.

As with all long-running series, "How I Met Your Mother" had definitive high points and low points from season to season. So, which seasons show off the very best of the ensemble comedy...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans have been buzzing with the news that a legacy sequel is now in the works at Hulu, and though we're a long way away from the show even being given an official series order, star Sarah Michelle Gellaris making some bold promises to fans should it move forward. Gellar, 47, starred as the titular slayer in the original series, which lasted for seven seasons from 1997 to 2003.

Appearing at the 12th Annual Makeup Artists & Hair Stylists Guild Awards on Saturday, Feb. 15, Gellar spoke to People on the red carpet, and touched on the upcoming Buffy sequel. It's set to be directed by Academy Award-winner Chloé Zhao, with a script penned by Nora and Lilla Zuckerman. In addition to appearing in the series, Gellar will also serve as an executive producer, and she made a bold promise to the longtime fans that have been clamoring for more Buffy for the past 20 years.

More than 20 years after saving the world for the last time, Sarah Michelle Gellar is preparing to slay once again.

After announcing a potential Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot in the works for Hulu, from 20th Television and Searchlight TV, the actress opened up about the pressure “to do it right” after starring in The WB‘s original series for seven seasons from 1997 to 2003.

“I wish there was a better word than overwhelming,” she told People. “It’s heartwarming and exciting and also incredibly nerve-wracking at the same time.”

Despite the “overwhelming” experience, Gellar noted, “I think we have this team in place that is legendary, from Chloé Zhao to the Zucks [Nora and Lilla Zuckerman], to Gail Berman. And I think people are going to be pretty impressed.”

Earlier this month, Deadline reported that the reboot has neared a pilot order from Hulu, with Gellar expected to reprise her eponymous role in the Zhao-directed pilot,...

As recently revealed, Hulu is working on a reboot of the timeless classic that is Buffy the Vampire Slayer. A pilot is currently being developed by director Chloé Zhao, and writers Nora and Lila Zuckerman, and Sarah Michelle Gellar is slated to reprise her role as Buffy Summers. The pilot will serve as a direct continuation of the seven-season series and will primarily follow a brand-new Slayer.

Fans can't wait for the upcoming Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot, but it will need more than Sarah Michelle Gellar's involvement to be a success. The Buffy fandom is famously enduring and passionate, and expectations for the new series are incredibly high. While the reboot should strive to stand on its own, it will never be able to escape the original series' shadow, and the best way for it to please fans will be to learn from its predecessor's example.

Appearances From Classic...

As fans eagerly await to hear if Hulu will officially place a series order for the Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot that was announced last week, one of the show's original stars, Juliet Landau, says she'd love nothing more than to reprise her role of Drusilla. Landau joined the show in Season 2, portraying Spike's (James Marsters) vampire lover, and would continue making sporadic appearances in the main series, as well as its spinoff, Angel, until both ended in 2003 and 2004, respectively.

Speaking with RadioTimes, Landau, now 59, says she has no qualms about returning for the Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot. She most recently appeared in the 2020 feature film A Place Among the Dead, and the TV series Claws, which ended in 2022. When it comes to Buffy, though, it's an automatic yes from her, no matter her schedule.

My gosh, yes. It would be so much fun to play, absolutely.

Landau's character...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer first premiered as a feature film in 1992, starring Kristy Swanson as the titular character, as well as Luke Perry, David Arquette, and Hilary Swank, based on disgraced creator Joss Whedon's script. The film was not a hit, but Whedon later turned it into a TV series that premiered in 1997 starring Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy, David Boreanaz, Alyson Hannigan, Nicholas Brendon, and Anthony Head.

The series ran for seven seasons between 1997 and 2003, adding the spinoff show Angel in 1999, which premiered at the same time as Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 3. The series was canceled after five seasons, and a reboot for Buffy has been in talks since 2018, although Sarah Michelle Gellar said several times she was reluctant to return. A reboot is now officially in the works and, during the 2025 Critics' Choice Awards red carpet, the lead actress confirmed to E! News that all the...

Sitcoms are a staple of American culture and television. So many incredible stories have been told through the comedic weekly lens of life all over the world. Fans have grown accustomed to falling in love with their favorite characters and hoping for their success.

On top of those iconic characters, there are also iconic characters that have only needed one episode to stand out. Although it's rare to have guest appearances on great sitcoms that only run for a single episode, some of them have withstood the test of time.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer aired its final episode over 20 years ago, but die-hard fans are still amazed at how well it explores the human condition. Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Willow (Alyson Hannigan), Xander (Nicholas Brendon), and Giles (Anthony Head) overcome every characteristic, event, and experience that comes with being human, all while stopping the forces of darkness and averting every single apocalypse that comes their way. Unfortunately, that means they've seen, processed, and gotten through some of life's saddest, most heartbreaking moments.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans are buzzing this week thanks to the news that the classic TV series is getting a reboot over at Hulu, with star Sarah Michelle Gellar set to reprise her role of Buffy Summers. From the looks of it, though, the series might not feature one of its most pivotal characters: Angel. Portrayed by David Boreanaz, Angel is the tortured vampire with a soul who serves as Buffy's love interest until his departure from the series at the end of Season 3. However, he did appear sporadically whilst starring in his own spinoff show.

Gellar took to Instagram earlier this week to post a lengthy statement about her involvement in the reboot, saying, "I have always listened to the fans and heard your desire to revisit Buffy and her world, but it was not something I could do unless I was sure we would get it right.

With news of a possible Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot (sequel?) series coming to Hulu in the future, fans of the series are cautiously excited, especially since Sarah Michelle Gellar has expressed interest in reprising her iconic role. But, we are also obviously a little worried that our favorite Chosen One may not be treated in the way we want her to be, right?

The ground-breaking series ran for seven seasons from 1997 to 2003, even changing networks at one point, and fans like yours truly were along for the entire exhilarating ride. Buffy the Vampire Slayer was unique in a number of ways. It was a spinoff of a film with the same title, which was written by Joss Whedon – a film that received lackluster reviews. Whedon himself was very unhappy with the changes that were made to his original script, and was thrilled at the chance to make it what he had originally envisioned.

"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" is famous for its blend of comedy and drama, silly rubber monster suits, and '90s dance sequences. But it's perhaps most famous of all for its villains. That's not just because they're super memorable, but also because of how the use of seasonal villains on "Buffy" completely changed the way most serialized TV was written. That format will surely continue in the recently reported "Buffy" sequel series at Hulu.

The concept of the "Big Bad" of a season overshadowing all the smaller "monster of the week" episodes and tying together a cohesive story with a climactic finale every year basically came from "Buffy." That narrative model, which had worked in various forms in the comic book medium for years, gave the show a distinctive feel on TV in the late '90s and early 2000s. It also became hugely influential for the whole medium of dramatic television.

There are few details about the proposed reboot yet, but it appears Joss Whedon isn’t in the picture.

“Buffy the Vampire Slayer” is frequently found on lists of the best TV shows of the 1990s, and with good reason. The series was a model for other shows of the period, with its season-long story arcs and its strong female lead. Now, a new report from Variety indicates that the show could be nearing a return, with a reboot starring Sarah Michelle Gellar nearing a pilot order at Hulu.

Key Details: Gellar would reprise her role as a recurring character rather than the show’s lead. Original “Buffy” creator Joss Whedon is not expected to have a role in the show’s creative team. A pilot order doesn’t mean the show will get a full season, but it’s an important step in that process. 30-Day Free Trial $9.99+ / month hulu.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer concluded in 2003 after seven seasons on the air, and remains a beloved and influential show to this day. There's been talk over the years of rebooting Buffy, with original series creator Joss Whedon working with showrunner Monica Owusu-Breen on a new show a while back. But that idea fizzled out a couple of years ago, probably because Whedon was accused of toxic behavior on his sets and has since been excommunicated from Hollywood.

But lately there have been signs of something stirring, with original series star Sarah Michelle Gellar coming around to the idea of a revival. “I always used to say no because it’s in its bubble, and it’s so perfect,” she said last month. "But watching [recent reboot shows] Sex And The City and seeing Dexter, and realizing there are ways to do it, definitely does get your mind thinking, ‘Well, maybe.'”

Sarah Michelle Gellar is set to return to reprise her most iconic role, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, in a new sequel/reboot series.

My fellow Slayers, this is not a drill. Buffy Summers is set to return to our screens and slay some more vampires in the near future.

That’s right, a new series of Buffy The Vampire Slayer is in the works. Deadline reports that Sarah Michelle Gellar is set to return as Buffy Summers, Sunnydale’s loyal vampire slayer, in a new sequel series that’ll also act as a reboot for the iconic 90s horror show.

If that piece of news hasn’t blown your mind yet, here’s another shocker. The series is reportedly being written by Nora and Lilla Zuckerman and Nomadland director Chloé Zhao is being eyed for directing duties for the pilot. Deadline’s sources also seem to think other old cast...

You guys, it’s finally happening.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is poised to return to TV screens 22 years after its well-watched and acclaimed series finale.

While we’ve heard that the show could return countless times over the years, none of those takes had Sarah Michelle Gellar attached.

Deadline reports that the iconic actress is expected to headline a revival series at Hulu.

The project is very much in its infancy, but Sarah’s readiness to pick up the stake and slay vampires again is a big leap forward because she was M.I.A. from a planned reboot a few years ago.

The beloved actress famously decided to walk away from Buffy the Vampire Slayer after its seventh season.

Two months ago, we reported that Sarah Michelle Gellar was open to reprising her role as the iconic vampire slayer Buffy Summers in a potential Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot.

And guess what? Gellar is reportedly expected to make a return in the pilot as Buffy. I mean, it wouldn't be a Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot without the original character coming back! We learned of this good news from Deadline. Academy Award-winning filmmaker Chloé Zhao, who is best known for being behind the drama film Nomadland and the superhero flick Eternals, will helm the pilot from a script written by Nora and Lilla Zuckerman (Poker Face).
