Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer is my favourite TV present ever, and is arguably probably the greatest teen dramas ever. The unique sequence (which is streaming with a Hulu subscription) ran for seven season throughout two networks, and followers like me have been hyped when it was revealed that Sarah Michelle Gellar was returning for a reboot pilot. Sadly one other OG lately confirmed they weren’t getting in on the enjoyable.
The forged of Buffy have been staying busy within the years because the present ended, however stay synonymous their Sunnydale alter egos. That features Cordelia actress Charisma Carpenter, who expressed curiosity in returning for the potential reboot. In a current TikTok she was requested if we must always anticipate her within the pilot that is taking pictures, and she or he mentioned:
I’m not within the reboot. I’m not within the pilot. I don’t even know if the present has been picked as much as go to sequence. I assume it is going to be.
What a bummer. Whereas Carpenter expressed curiosity in returning as Cordelia, that seemingly hasn’t occurred simply but. However who is aware of? If the Buffy reboot will get a full season order from Hulu possibly we’ll get information about extra of the OGs returning to affix Sarah Michelle Gellar. I am preserving my fingers (and stakes) crossed.
Cordelia as a primary character for the primary three season of Buffy, till the Scooby Gang graduated Sunnydale Excessive Faculty. After that Carpenter pivoted over to the spinoff Angel, the place she was a sequence common for the primary 4 seasons. What’s extra, Cordelia lately returned to the franchise in Audible’s Slayers: A Buffyverse Story, particularly one which’s come from an alternate universe and is The Slayer.
Later in her similar TikTok, Carpenter shared extra details about the place she stands with the Buffy reboot pilot that is being filmed. In her phrases:
I’ve not had a dialog with any of the powers that be to incorporate Cordelia at this level.
Properly, that was fairly minimize and dry. Thus far SMG is the one Buffy legacy character confirmed for the reboot pilot, which can or might not find yourself leading to a sequence order. Giles was at all times dishing out data within the beloved sequence, in order that’s one other OG that I am desperately hoping will get to affix the enjoyable someday sooner or later.
You possibly can watch Charisma Carpenter’s TikTok in regards to the state of affairs beneath:
Certainly, there are a ton of Buffy legacy characters that followers are hoping to meet up with if a brand new sequence is ordered by Hulu. Along with Giles and Cordelia, Alyson Hannigan’s Willow looks as if an apparent to return in some unspecified time in the future. Sadly Michelle Trachtenberg’s dying has put the kibosh on seeing Daybreak once more.
The unique Buffy the Vampire Slayer sequence is streaming on Hulu. We’ll simply have to attend and see if the streamer truly strikes ahead with a reboot, however the truth that it is getting a lot press would seemingly be an excellent signal.
