Sarah Michelle Gellar Confirms Talks For Buffy Revival Are Progressing Well

Following recent rumors, Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Sarah Michelle Gellar confirms talks for a Buffy revival are progressing well. The actress posted to her fans on Instagram following various reports she may actually be coming back for a Buffy reboot. It turns out the rumors were true. However, Gellar tells fans not to get their popcorn ready just yet. It’s not a done deal, but she is surprisingly open to this reboot if all the pieces fall into place.

Check it out.

“So….. you might have heard some news this week, but I realize you haven’t heard from me. Three years ago, I got a call from my dear friend and mentor, Gail Berman. She told me that she wanted me to sit down with Chloé Zhao to hear her take on a potential “Buffy” revival. I was blown away that Chloé even knew who I was, but, as I’ve always done, I told Gail that I just didn’t see a way for the show to exist again.”

“We’d always been aligned on that, but this time I heard something different in her voice. I eventually agreed to go (mainly just to meet Chloé) and our twenty minute coffee quickly turned into a four hour adventure. We laughed, we cried, but mostly we both talked about how much this show means to us. While I didn’t agree to anything at that meeting, I did shock myself by agreeing to continue the conversation.”

“These conversations did, in fact, continue over the next few years and eventually we added the incredible Nora and Lilla Zuckerman to our little tribe until ultimately, one day, we landed on an idea. 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.”

“This has been a long process, and it’s not over yet. I promise you, we will only make this show if we know we can do it right. And I will tell you that we are on the path there. I feel so lucky to be on this journey with these four unbelievably talented women, all of whom love “Buffy” as much as I do. And as much as you do. Thank you to all the fans who never stopped asking for this. This will be for you.”

I have to say as a Buffy fan, this sounds like the right people making the right sequel. Though, as Gellar herself says, let’s wait till the casting process begins after it has been greenlit.
