Casting Buffy The Vampire Slayer Reboot

9. Storm Reid - Dawn Summers

Storm Reid might not be a name you're instantly familiar with, but given her few performances so far, it's fair to say it won't be long before everyone knows her name.

Reid played the lead role in the family adventure A Wrinkle In Time in 2018 (opposite the one and only Oprah) and went on to have roles in such celebrated shows as When They See Us and Euphoria.

Not only is she the right age for the role, but over her short career she stole the show for her mature performances and innocent image. If Buffy were to be rebooted, Reid is exactly the kind of young star the show would need to make Dawn Summers as complex and tragic as she was in the original show.

Not only would Reid give a fresh spin on the character, but she would also remind fans of Dawn's best qualities, making her arc all the more great to re-watch.
