Yes, the remake of BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER is still happening. This confirmed with a tweet from new writer, Whit Anderson who said this, “I know, Hollywood takes forEVER! But yes! It is still in the works.”
Does anyone care? I doubt it.
In fact, TV Buffy herself, Sarah Michelle Gellar had the best response, “It was a movie. It’s been made. It stars Kristy Swanson. They made it. They don’t need to make another one!”
She continued to share her feelings on the reboot, “I think it’s a horrible idea. To try to do a ‘Buffy’ without Joss Whedon, I mean that’s, like, honestly, to be incredibly non-eloquent: that’s the dumbest idea I’ve ever heard.”
Maybe Gellar could use Mr. Pointy or the scythe to kill this project already.
