EXCLUSIVE: Ryan Kiera Armstrong has landed the lead opposite Sarah Michelle Gellar in the ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ reboot, which has a pilot order at Hulu.
Armstrong will play the new slayer in the untitled Buffyverse project, which Gellar executive produces in addition to reprising her signature role as Buffy Summers.
Will Anon Babble be watching?
Isn't she a bit young
don't be an ageist
If I remember correctly, didn't the series in the last season have dozens, if not hundreds of slayers? Or did they all die when that Hellmouth thing collapsed in the final episode.
This way the producers get to have their fun, and also get to shame any outsiders who try to sexualize her, while also appealing to the coomer audience.
Can someone please explain why there is a new slayer? Didn't Buffy her power to like a bunch of girls? and then started an organization of female slayers? Why is there a new slayer when there should be a lot more.
She was decent in Skeleton Crew
No Whedon, no watch. Get it trending.
She looks like she's 7
or a highschooler is playing a highschooler
No, your brain is just warped from Hollywood casting 28yos as teens.
New nepobaby just dropped
Will Anon Babble be watching
No Trachtenberg. Absolutely not.
I will now watch your reboot!
Her watcher will be some POC in his early 20s.
so, no Skeleton Crew s2?
No shot. What happened to the black slayer?
They bet the bad guys by making a spell that skips the succession line, so all the potential slayers get their powers simultaneously.
They should bring back the original Buffy.
Anon learns that all shows about equality and diversity don't work long term and gave to reset
I'm honestly surprised they casted a white girl, let alone an actually cute one. Wasn't even considering watching, but now I might.
Buffy is the watcher in the show
No that's how it ended. All potential slayers were activated. But it has been 25 years. Maybe their numbers are dwindling and there are only a few left. It could be like a highlander situation where as their numbers drop down the surviving slayers get stronger.
bet
*beat
Not as great and hot as Prinze but could’ve been worse, like a Negro or Asian.
you mean like a high schooler?
born 2010
So no sexuality in the first 3 seasons. The original show caught popularity from make guys like me cause it was sexual. I don't want to watch a feminist buffy. Ew
She was the kid in the Firestarter remake. Not much of a film but nothing wrong with her in it.
?
So the "alpha male guy in the cast will be black then
sure, Sarah, just take a shit on Joss Whedon's career and then steal his idea.
change the record bro
I think you have to be a child of a successful actor to be a nepo baby, key word successful
Ohhh now I recognize her. She's the one so Terrible as an actress she got a raxzzie that had to be taken back after cancel culture mob
Buffy was always feminist and it only became more blatant the longer the show went on.
I love brunettes with blonde dye jobs, trashy hot.
blame the victim instead of the studio who does it
Bro honest question are you a feminist because you were a Medicore white guy in school and praising diversity gave you a personality so you just did it all the time? Sad.
He'll be the new Spike, he goes by "Spook"
you are literally making up imaginary things to get mad at
the new slayer is dawn's age in S5
No way MT's death isn't written into the show.
She's the one so Terrible as an actress she got a raxzzie
The Razzie nomination was not for her, it was for a film that had negative reviews. The Razzies don't actually watch the films they nominate, they just nominate whatever got negative press in whatever arbitrary categories. It backfired there because not only did they just nominate a little kid, but there was nothing wrong with her in the film, she was perfectly adequate for the role. If anything it showed they didn't watch it because Zac Efron is the one who should actually have been nominated because he was terrible in it.
washed up old hang desperate to cling onto whatever relevancy she has by rebooting a shitty tv show from almost 30 years ago
I doubt they'll bother with it. She was never going to be part of the new show. She'll be off in college or doing some random shit.
Will we get another lesbian redhead witch?
Angel pedophile
Buffy sexualized as a 15/16 year old in fetishize ways
Xander making sexual jokes all the time making her unfortunate
Xander banging Cordelia willow and even Buffy somewhat (Joyce and ms calander and Anya too)
Buffy weirded out when willow became gay
Buffy calls herself a slut constantly and gets scared of getting fat
Spike straight up defending the slaughter of Native Americans
The show went woke around season 5 after joss left and put wa womanizer charge Marti Noxon
Glad she is White. They knew she couldn't be anything else.
i was conceptualizing a reboot about a year ago that wouldve seen a young Black girl as the new Slayer. moving from the progressive west to the conservative south, she is forced to face off against both vampires and white devils.
having actually seen Firestarter, there was absolutely zero reason to nominate the girl for a Razzie, the movie was bad but she wasn't the reason why, it was the extremely truncated story that just bulldozed past plot points, and the father character was hilariously unlikable and at fault for virtually everything
Hannigan will probably be in it, so they already have one.
genuinely astonished they went with a white slayer in the current year
she's fucking TINY
So is Gellar
she's cute
and white
?
How am I making things up?
Percy Jackson -Disney announces White percy first then not a single other white person in the cast
Harry potter announcing all the old white people first because all the kiss won't be white
Buffy announce white buffy because the writers are the trams writer from that glow in the dark show and it will be woke
I'm sorry you didn't expect an EDUCATED person to be anti woke, you're used to the grifters. Now you need to step your game up to counter me.
But i know you can't so call me crazy or something so you can leave tge conversation without feeling like you just got smacked down hard. Even though that's what just happened
How come women get to keep their toys intact creatively
that'll be Buffy's motivation for training the new slayer, that she lost Dawn
Welcome to Anon Babble
why the fuck is everyone a poc on screen these days?
what, they cast a white girl? what the fuck is wrong with them?
This isn't true lol
inb4 she only dates black guys
How so?
It's Disney. They aquire it from fox
There is virtually zero chance she isn't gay.
Ew. Glad you have a day job. You just stole the concept ofSinners
friendly reminder that a buffy reboot was in development for years with the same premise but with a black girl led and smg said no. So the only way to prevent blackwashing popular Ips if there is a white nepobaby for the job. got it.
Character breakdowns
NOVA (Ryan Kiera Armstrong) – A teenage vampire hunter balancing high school with slaying the undead. Determined, fearless, very smart and a bit of a loner.
HUGO – An out-and-proud nerd from a wealthy family who has a crush on Nova but is awkward about it.
GRACIE – Nova's best friend, an expert on vampires fascinated by myths and a huge fan of Buffy.
COLE – The charming and confident alpha of the group and a natural leader.
MIA – A social media-obsessed student who gets caught up in the supernatural chaos.
ABE – Nova’s widowed father, a dedicated photojournalist.
MR. BURKE – The put-upon school librarian who later becomes a vampire and seeks revenge on those who mistreated him.
Gellar said that's all bullshit.
*Trans
The writers are going to put tons of Trans allegories
Shalom!
Smg wanted Zendaya
they didn't cast a black man who identifies as a Chinese woman from Mexico as Buffy
No social credit money for you, Hulu
That's exactly how the Razzies work. They're extremely shallow and based more off headlines than actual films.
Will the Orochimaru of Buffy finally get her comeuppance or they not revisiting the vampire characters?
Theyre probably going to do Fray, a Buffy spinoff set some time in the future.
weird babyface and gigantic forehead also a boring brunette
NO THANKS
Hugo will be white and Cole will be black and cucks the rich white nerd.
Hard to get around the fact that all the actors are 25 years older despite being immortal vampires
determined, fearless, very smart and a bit of a loner.
Oh good they don't understand the appeal of the original
HUGO
Oh good xander's a beaner now
COLE – The charming and confident alpha of the group and a natural leader.
Either black or he's white and becomes the villain against the group later
>MIA – A social media-obsessed student who gets caught up in the supernatural chaos.
One too many characters. More than 3 is a mistake
ABE – Nova’s widowed father, a dedicated photojournalist.
We don't need parents having hobbies to fit them in. I hate shit like this.
>MR. BURKE – The put-upon school librarian who later becomes a vampire and seeks revenge on those who mistreated him.
OK so Cole is black. The white guy is gonna be old
this has to be the same guy spamming right?
strawman argument
I've only seen her in Skeleton Crew but she was good in it. What did you see her in that you say she is terrible?
Glad you are just a tranny and not a TV writer
A little confused. “This generation’s slayer” but there should be dozens or hundreds of slayers now. Sounds like the end of the OG series will be retconned bc if every female is special and powerful queen then no one is. lmao
Nevermind it wont be Fray unless they retcon her. She is from the 23rd century.
people are a keto catch on to Disney tricks from smile away
Yo..yo..you're just a spammer r..r..right?
Whedon was subtle with feminism and pozz, he also always cast hot actresses and sexualised them up until ScarJo and Gadot in 2015-2016.
Looking at gifs and stuff she has no facial expressions. Concerning
Okay. Maybe what happens is that when the original t.v. show did the spell and empowered the potential slayers and gave them their slayer abilities, it was only that batch or generation.
Any newer potential slayers being born would not have their powers activated unless all the rest of the current Slayer batch finally "bite the dust."
I've looked at a random photo, this means I can judge her acting ability
Hey you might be cut out to be a Razzie "judge" yet.
Having actually seen her in a TV show, she is perfectly good for a kid actress.
I assume the original line is still with Faith. So if she dies a new slayer is chosen.
no joss, not watching
White slayer
Good.
Joss was fucking Amy Acker charisma Carpenter eliza dushku.
Sarah slept with joss so she could be buffy instead of cordelia.
He tried to force himself on Michelle Trachtenberg in a meeting and wasn't allowed to be alone with her anymore. This man caused Michelle to drink and die
Also this guy straight up talks about joss whedon. Talks about his move being watch a movie, cry and hold her hand. Later fucks her
m.youtube.com
We need a rapist to have good buffy
out of 10
Good point.
you're trying way too hard to be negative
Stop trying to make logic.its as stupid as the avatar show going back to seperated nations.
lol if they do the force awakens thing and reset it back to a single slayer and all the others died offscreen
Good start but can they fill out the rest of the cast with QT's like /Our/ Joss did?
I'll make the heads hot you get em outta here!
They might just retcon all that. I suspect it'll be one of those sequels that is set after but only picks and chooses from the original canon.
It seems already confirmed it's going to be set in New Sunnydale.
The photojournalist is definitely going to try and get the scoop.jist to find out the his daughter and frens are up to so much more than he ever real
They took up smoking and only feed on very unhealthy people.
Buffy was always feminist and it only became more blatant the longer the show went on.
It was written by a feminist man, and then actual feminist women took over. That was the problem. Now, men aren't even involved in this reboot. It will be disgusting.
inb4 she only dates black guys
I guarantee the version of Angel in the reboot will be black.
Based Joss. Pity he introduced whedonesque dialogue.
HUGO – An out-and-proud nerd from a wealthy family who has a crush on Nova but is awkward about it.
Fat white guy
GRACIE – Nova's best friend, an expert on vampires fascinated by myths and a huge fan of Buffy.
Asian girl
COLE – The charming and confident alpha of the group and a natural leader.
Black guy
MIA – A social media-obsessed student who gets caught up in the supernatural chaos.
Blonde white girl
ABE – Nova’s widowed father, a dedicated photojournalist.
White nerd
MR. BURKE – The put-upon school librarian who later becomes a vampire and seeks revenge on those who mistreated him.
White nerd
I've only seen her in Skeleton Crew but she was good in it.
That role obviously landed her the part. The same character, basically.
They should've went with a black slayer. Bigots.
They were all jews
Sad
is this in any way credible as a "leak"?
Shes still my favorite slayer. I never knew people thought the movie sucked. It's just as fun and silly as the show.
hugo
white
Anon i...
Buffy was always feminist
Thank you Joss for tricking these morons into hiring sexy 14 years old and making them wear belly tops all season.
But she is... you know... white and pretty
This is either fake or a mistake. In any case i may give it a shot as long as they don´t replace SMG as Buffy. That´s all i can promise though, the rest will depend on the actual quality of the show.
I don´t honestly expect them to pull it off without Whedon but i want to believe it is at least possible.
Buffy was only good for the first three seasons, because of Angel.
Angel was a dope character and dope show. Every character on Buffy was a cunt and it was just a bunch of cunts being cunty. Angel was a relentlessly positive show, all about no matter how shit everything is in this world and any other, fighting your hardest matters and makes a difference. It was beautiful.
Whedon was subtle with feminism and pozz
Women will never understand this.
Cont.
Joss doesn't need to be involved. Angel was at its best without Whedon. I give a lot of credit to David Fury (he went from Angel [S05 is godtier] to Lost S01 to 24 S05, which is likely the greatest 2-3 year span any television producer in history has ever had) and others.
White and pretty like Jeremy Renner in Hawkeye. They cast white people I leads then inject everything you hate behind it
No one in the history of the universe has ever called Jeremy Renner pretty.
Anon i...
What was that, anon?
Hugo isn't a White person's name?
And in the category of WRONG. We have you
Angel was the worst character in Buffy. Only succeeded because he got his own show away from her. The problem with feminist shows if you have to actively suppress your male lead' coolness. Angel became a good character as Angelus. He became a great character after.
Angel Spike Riley Giles all had their characters ruined trying to make Buffy special.
In fact they all just reused the same bf stories from each. Riley being a badass but reduced to the bf like Angel.
Spike having chip pains was the same as Riley with withdrawals.
All of them had potential but instead got reduced to emotional support characters. Even Xander and Giles did nothing of note later on
off in college
Yeah bro. It’s still 2006. It really really is
Yes, Hugo. Like Victor Hugo. Pretty standard white European name.
All white people are pretty
Hugo is legit a latino name you dumb Albanian prick
All the monsters could be metaphors for racism. How did they not go down this route?
retards arguing over shit that's been debunked
None of those character descriptions are real.
She's actually very ugly when you see her regular. Her forehead is huge. Also her mom's name is Berta which is a black name which means she's black
Hugo is a surname and a masculine given name. The English version of the name is Hugh, the Italian version is Ugo.
The name Hugo is actually a short form of old names like Hugbert and Hugbald. The name is derived from the old Germanic *hugu, meaning 'sense, mind, thought', and *huggen, meaning 'to think'. In other words, Hugo means thinker or clever
Hugo is one of the most popular given names in Europe, ranking as high as #8 in Belgium in 2006
Kill yourself.
a retard believes Disney PR over his own people
Sad
Anon is defending ugly
actually very ugly
posts a normal nice looking girl
Too ugly. Find a new girl
elbows
too pointy
