    Sarah Michelle Gellar Says Children of Original ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ Actors Auditioned for Reboot

    Sarah Michelle Gellar revealed that she knew some familiar names on the audition roster for the Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot.

    The actress who played Buffy Summers in the original series, which ran for seven seasons from 1997 to 2003, recently chatted with Us Weekly with her former Buffy costar Alyson Hannigan, who portrayed Willow Rosenberg. During the interview, Rosenberg confessed, “I know somebody who auditioned for something on the show.”

    However, Gellar also knew some people. “I know somebody who was on the show whose child auditioned on the show,” she revealed. “I know a few people from the show whose children came in.”

    “It better not have been one of my kids,” Rosenberg quipped in response.

    Though the Wolf Pack star didn’t reveal the names of who auditioned, last week it was announced that Star Wars: Skeleton Crew actress Ryan Kiera Armstrong has been cast in a lead role in Hulu’s pilot for the reboot. The new show will also see Gellar reprise her role as Buffy Summers.

    “From the moment I saw Ryan’s audition, I knew there was only one girl that I wanted by my side,” Gellar said in a statement regarding Armstrong’s casting. “To have that kind of emotional intelligence, and talent, at such a young age is truly gift. The bonus is that her smile lights up even the darkest room.”

    Most details on Armstrong’s role, as well as the show itself, are being kept under wraps. The original series, which also starred Nicholas Brendon, Anthony Head, James Marsters and Emma Caulfield Ford, followed Buffy Summers, destined to slay vampires, demons and other infernal creatures, as she deals with her life fighting evil, with the help of her friends.

    A premiere date for the reboot has yet to be revealed.
