I guess that is a credit to how great Ms Gellar was in the role. Plus how can anyone else but James Marsters play Spike? He owns that role...and rocks all around.<br/><br/>And guys...seriously...the 96 Dr Who movie is really not that great. I'm a huge Who fan and I've seen them all (well, all available footage) and that movie was lackluster at best. Thankfully the whole half-human thing has been ingored by the production staff of the current series...though it may come into play this year with the Paul Cornell two parter....

Hermione might make a good Willow, (the words "flick and swish" come to mind) but there's no way she'd make it as Buffy. Hayden has the hair, the attitude, and the general kickassness of our dear Slayer. <br/><br/>All the best,<br/>Christina Um.

We both agreed that Hayden, while a good actress, just can't pull off Buffy. Her look is too Bubblegum Pop.<br/><br/>If we MUST recast Buffy, you need someone a bit tinier to pull off the "girl in the alley who you think it's gonna get killed." but then turns around and kicks butt. Hayden I think would pull off more of a Harmony character than a Buffy one. She's more curvy, bouncy girl.<br/><br/>There's not a lot of people to pull from since I'm not too up on teenage actors but I'd pick the girl who plays Hermione over Hayden (especially from the movie that comes out in July).

Remember Sarah Michelle Gellar wasn't the FIRST actress to play Buffy ( remember the movie?)and if you have seen the unaired version of the Buffy pilot Allyson Hannigan wasn't the first actress to play Willow either.<br/><br/>Also if they can reboot a series as successfully as the did a show like BSG why couldn't they do the same thing for BtVS? She has teh spunk for the role and with some other good casting (and Joss writing naturally) The show would be successful.<br/><br/>Put it out to your listeners.....see what they think!
