   Sarah Michelle-Gellar Dashes Any Hope for a ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’   
   Movie   
      
   There was talk a few years ago about doing another ‘Buffy the Vampire   
   Slayer’   
   film with a new writer and director for the series, but fans nearly caused a   
   riot in uprising against the idea of a new film without Whedon — who was the   
   original creator — involved.“We have them all the time, they’re just not   
   televised,” Gellar told E! News about a potential Buffy reunion. “What I   
   think people don’t realize — Buffy was a failed movie. Buffy didn’t work   
   as   
   a movie. It worked as a long arc television show where you could follow this   
   journey.   
      
   Buffy star Sarah Michelle-Gellar recently stated that the first hurdle to   
   jump in a film adaptation of the popular TV series would be the fact that   
   the show was based on a movie that failed miserably at the box office.   
      
   ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ — starring Kristy Swanson as Buffy along with   
   ‘Beverly Hills 90210′ star Luke Perry — opened in 1992 and brought home   
   only   
   $16 million in theaters. The film was universally panned by critics and it   
   seemed the idea was all but dead until Whedon revived the premise with a TV   
   series at the WB network.   
      
   “We spent all of our first year going ‘yes we’re based on a failed movie,   
   but we’re different’. So then it just seems kind of counterproductive to   
   then go back. It didn’t work the first time.”   
      
   The biggest reason Gellar thinks everyone should give up on the idea of a   
   Buffy movie comes down to the age of everyone involved in the series.   
      
   Gellar is 37 and will turn 38 in April while her main co-stars — Nicholas   
   Brendon, 43, Alyson Hannigan, 40, and Anthony Stewart Head, 61 — aren’t   
   getting any younger either.   
      
   “I joke that at this point I’d have to have a walker and my walker would be   
   how I would stake people. I think at this point I’m a little old,” Gellar   
   said.   
      
   Say it ain’t so, Buffy!   
      
   While the idea still seems to get fans into a feeding frenzy about a ‘Buffy   
   the Vampire Slayer’ movie actually being made, at this point it seems like a   
   forgone conclusion that it will probably never happen.   
      
   Evil wins again.   
      
      
           {They could make a movie about Buffy, the Immortal and their   
   Immortal Slayer daughter(s)}   
      
               {Just like the never ending clamor for a 'Xena' movie - never   
   gonna happen!}
