New Buffy the Vampire Slayer Movie?



In class today, my professor, Dr. Mike, says that there is supposed to be a new Buffy movie coming out soon.  This intrigued me.  Doing a little more research I discovered that there is indeed a brand new movie.  Apparently it's supposed to be a brand new start.  With a new Buffy and non of the original characters from the hit TV series or the original movie.

Apparently Vanessa Hudgens was offered the role as Buffy and have Sarah Michelle Gellar show up in the movie.  Thankfully, that never happened.  However, Warner Brothers has brought the movie back up and has requested the rights.  "Charles Roven and Steve Alexander will produce the reboot alongside Roy Lee and Doug Davison of Vertigo Entertainment.  The script is being written by Whit Anderson and evidently this new take on Buffy‘s mythology was enough to spark Roven’s interest" -ScreenRant

After reading further on the ScreenRant website, it seems that a lot of people are not thrilled about the new Buffy movie.  Bones creator Hart Hanson  just tweeted this picture of Buffy alum David Boreanaz’s reaction to the news:

 How do you feel about a new Buffy movie?
