10 Actors Who Have Turned Down TV Reboots

Despite officially reaching its conclusion - checks notes - a whopping twenty years ago (!), the appetite for another set of adventures centred around Sarah Michelle Gellar's Buffy Summers is still as strong as ever.

Unfortunately for those angling to see the titular Vampire Slayer dive back into the much-loved supernatural world with her fellow Scooby Gang members, though, Gellar has confessed to having zero interest in battling evil forces in a revival of the hit series.

Like so many of the other names on this list, Gellar is incredibly proud of the work she helped create the first time around and just feels that a reboot "doesn't need to be done."

That's not to say that the Scream 2 and Scooby Doo star would be against the series continuing the tale without her, however. In fact, the "Every girl who has the power can have the power" message sent out as the show drew to a close means that "it’s set up perfectly for someone else to have the power", as far as Gellar is concerned.

While this most certainly acts as the definitive nail in Buffy Summers' coffin, perhaps Gellar's blessing will finally lead to the series actually being brought back from the dead with a new Slayer after being put "on pause" last August.
