Sarah Michelle Gellar has confirmed the return of Buffy The Vampire Slayer, after speaking with director Chloe Zhao about a potential revival. Initially skeptical, their conversation fostered a deep connection, leading to continued discussions over the years. Gellar emphasized the importance of ensuring the new show meets fans' expectations, stating they will only proceed if they can 'do it right.' The revival is expected to center on a new slayer, with Buffy taking on a mentoring role. This fresh direction honors the original series while introducing new elements to the storyline.
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.
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.
The show would focus on a new slayer, with Buffy becoming a mentor of sorts, which would be fitting considering the original finale from 2003.
