Hulu plans sequel to Buffy the Vampire Slayer

News summary

Hulu is set to revive the iconic series 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' with a new sequel that will focus on a fresh Slayer while bringing back Sarah Michelle Gellar in a supporting role. The project, described as a 'soft reboot,' aims to honor the original series while adapting it for contemporary audiences, featuring a creative team that includes director Chloé Zhao and writers Nora and Lilla Zuckerman. Gellar, who initially distanced herself from the franchise due to past controversies surrounding creator Joss Whedon, has reconsidered her involvement, citing inspiration from recent successful revivals of other series. While the pilot episode is nearing an order, the return of other original cast members has not been confirmed, and Gellar's role will be more of a mentor rather than the lead. The revival comes after a previous unsuccessful reboot attempt in 2018, demonstrating Hulu's commitment to explore new storylines within the Buffyverse. Fans are excited for the potential to see beloved themes and characters reimagined for a new generation.
