Buffy Reboot Auditions Include Children of Original Cast

News summary

The upcoming Hulu revival of Buffy the Vampire Slayer will feature Sarah Michelle Gellar reprising her role as Buffy Summers, alongside a new generation of actors, including Ryan Kiera Armstrong as the new Slayer. Gellar revealed that several children of original cast members have auditioned for roles in the reboot, suggesting a generational passing of the torch, although it remains unclear who among them, if any, have been cast. Alyson Hannigan, who played Willow, was surprised by this news and joked about hoping it was not her own children auditioning. The reboot will be written and executive produced by Nora and Lila Zuckerman, with Chloé Zhao directing the pilot and also serving as an executive producer. Joss Whedon will not be involved due to past controversies, and the plot centers on Buffy mentoring the new Slayer, an introverted high school student. The production aims to blend familiar faces with fresh talent, potentially incorporating family ties from the original cast into the storyline.
