It looks like Buffy might be slaying again at Hulu.
According to Variety, a reboot of the iconic series Buffy the Vampire Slayer is nearing fruition at Hulu, with Sarah Michelle Gellar potentially reprising her role as the vampire-slaying hero. While the new series will introduce a fresh Slayer as its protagonist, Gellar is slated to appear as a recurring character, adding a nostalgic touch for fans.
Adding to the excitement, Academy Award-winning director Chloé Zhao, renowned for her work on Nomadland and Eternals, is in discussions to direct and executive produce this revival. The writing and showrunning duties will be handled by the talented duo Nora Zuckerman and Lila Zuckerman. Notably, original series creator Joss Whedon will not be involved in this project. Whedon, who oversaw the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series and the movie it was based on, faced allegations of fostering a toxic work environment during the production of both the show and its spinoff, Angel.
Details about the plot remain under wraps, but it's confirmed that the reboot will center around a new Slayer, with the possibility of Gellar returning as Buffy.
The original series followed Buffy Summers, a high school student destined to fight against demons, vampires, and various supernatural foes. She was supported by her close friends Willow Rosenberg and Xander Harris, along with her mentor, the Watcher Rupert Giles.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer aired from 1997 to 2003, spanning seven seasons. It also spawned a spinoff, Angel, and continued its legacy through a series of canonical comic books.
