Fate of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot has finally been revealed
It looks like a new Chosen One won’t be patrolling the streets for vampires and ghouls anytime soon. Back in 2018, it was revealed that a reboot of Buffy the Vampire Slayer with a Black lead was in development – with original series creator Joss Whedon and Fringe alum Monica Owusu-Breen attached as executive producer and showrunner, respectively.
At the time, the announcement was slammed by fans and critics – which resulted in Owusu-Breen confirming that it would be a revival instead of a full-blown reboot. “Before I became a writer, I was a fan.
For seven seasons, I watched Buffy Summers grow up, find love, kill that love. I watched her fight, and struggle and slay. There is only one Buffy.
One Xander, one Willow, Giles, Cordelia, Oz, Tara, Kendra, Faith, Spike, Angel… “They can’t be replaced. Joss Whedon’s brilliant and beautiful series can’t be replicated.
