Casting Buffy The Vampire Slayer Reboot
3. Kaitlyn Dever - Willow Rosenberg
Willow Rosenberg is Buffy's best friend, a loud and proud bookworm, nerd, and a witch so powerful not even the Slayer could stop her. She's bubbly, tough, and totally happy with the person she is, spending a long period of time with Oz before coming out as gay and getting in a relationship with Tara, one of TV's most adorable couples.
Kaitlyn Dever recently wowed critics and fans alike with her performance in the Netflix mini-series Unbelievable, and showed off both her comedic and dramatic skills with roles in films like Detroit and Booksmart.
Warm, lovable and able to play innocent characters thrust into terrible situations, Dever would make a striking and effective Willow.
To top it off, the role would also give her a chance to play Dark Willow, Willow's power-drunk and dangerously grieving evil self. Which, given her talent, Dever would pull off no problem.
