Buffy Reboot to Air on Hulu

A reboot of the iconic series 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' is in development, with Sarah Michelle Gellar returning in a recurring role as Buffy Summers, while also serving as an executive producer. The new series will introduce a 16-year-old slayer named Nova, described as cerebral, smart, and more akin to Willow than the original Buffy. Nova will be joined by her own 'Scooby Gang,' including Hugo, an out-and-proud nerd from a wealthy family, and Gracie, a young vampire expert who idolizes Buffy's character. The series aims to honor the legacy of the original show, with acclaimed director Chloé Zhao attached to direct the pilot and writers Nora and Lilla Zuckerman serving as showrunners. While casting is underway for these roles, there are no confirmations yet on the return of other original cast members like David Boreanaz or James Marsters. Hulu is set to air the revival, keeping fans eager for more details as the project progresses.
