Sarah Michelle Gellar denies voices on the losses of Buffy’s new cast, but the project is serious

There is something that has always accompanied the universe of Buffy, cazavampos: Voices. And this week, one of them burned the internet. New characters, a new jacket and an alleged generational relief which, according to many, was already closed. But now it has arrived Sarah Michelle GellarBuffy himself, to put the order. And he did it without hair on the tongue: “All this is false.”

The truth about Buffy’s return

The actress clarified in a recent interview: The alleged losses on the characters of the awakening are completely invented. No “Nova”, the new teenage hunter or “Hugo” or “Gracie” like his adventure companions. Gellar resolved the question without hesitation: “Those characters are false. Everything that leaks is a lie.”

And although many media were already rubbing their hands with what seemed exclusive, the reality is that neither Hulu nor the 20th television confirmed those details. In addition, the actress wanted to deviate attention to what really matters: The essence of the original series is still very present in this new proposal.

“The point of an anti -hero is to be the hero of those who do not adapt. I want to tell stories for those people”, Gellar said, clarifying that Buffy’s spirit is even more alive than ever.

A story that continues to be written

In his Instagram account, Sarah Michelle Gellar shared an emotional message that reveals how this new stage was born. It all started three years ago, when Gail BermanOriginal producer of the series, he defined it with an unexpected proposal: to meet the director Chloé zhao (Neither of them, Ethernals).

“I only went to that meeting to meet Chloé. But what should be a quick coffee has become four hours of laughter, tears and nostalgia”, “” Gellar confessed.

What looked like an impossible idea was to gain a little little by little. To that little creative team he joined Nora y lilla zuckermanscreenwriters of the series such as Shield agents y FringeAnd among all they were modeling something new, but with a family soul.

“I didn’t accept anything in that first meeting, but I was surprised to want to continue talking,” He shared the actress. And so, with patience, passion and many conversations, it was an idea that in the end seems to take a true direction.

A promise for fans

One of the keys to this return is that It will not be done in any way. Gellar was acute: They will only return if they can do it well. And although there is no official date or a confirmation of the filming, there is something clear: The project is alive and advances with a firm step.

“I promise you that we will do this series only if we are sure that we will do it well”, He told fans. “And I assure you that we are on that road.”

In his message, he also thanked the unconditional support of the Fandom, the one who never stopped asking for a continuation. Is closed with a phrase that excites: “This will be for you.”

Chloé Zhao and a new vision for Buffy

That Chloé Zhao is involved as director and executive producer was one of the greatest surprises. His narrative sensitivity, combined with the Zuckerman approach, promises Buffy more introspective and current. Without betraying its roots, of course, but adapting to a world that is no longer that of the nineties.

With the support of Television for research, 20th television and to producers such as Sandollar (Dolly Pardon) y Suite B (Fran Y Kaz Kuzui)The production has very prohibited muscles and talents.

And although Gellar has not yet confirmed if he appears on the screen like Buffy, his role of Executive manufacturer And Guardian of the Legacy already guarantees that everything we see will have its seal.

Now it’s time to wait. Not to new losses (which we already know how they end), but to the official news that brings us closer to the return of Sunnydale. In the meantime, fans can be calm: The jacket is still out there, waiting for the right moment to return to the action.
