'Buffy' in for feature relaunch
May 25, 2009 "Buffy" creator Joss Whedon isn't involved and it's not set up at a studio, but Roy Lee and Doug Davison of Vertigo Entertainment are working with original movie director Fran Rubel Kuzui and her husband, Kaz Kuzui, on what is being labeled a remake or relaunch, but not a sequel or prequel. While Whedon is the person most associated with "Buffy," Kuzui and her Kuzui Enterprises have held onto the rights since the beginning, when she discovered the "Buffy" script from then-unknown Whedon. Kuzui later teamed with Gail Berman, then president of Sandollar Television, bringing back Whedon to make the TV series, which was produced by Fox TV and launched on the WB in 1997.
...? Buffy re-launch? What does this mean for us Buffy die-hard fans? Personally I can't see anyone but Sarah Michelle Gellar as the face of Buffy - She IS Buffy in my mind. And if Spike and other popular vampires don't come back... ARG.
