Sarah Michelle Gellar hopes the canceled “Buffy the Vampire Slayer†reboot pilot doesn't see the light of day because it wasn't “finished†and “everyone would have an opinion.â€
The “Ready or Not 2†star opened up about the canceled project and how it took her by surprise during a chat with Page Six Radio co-hosts Evan Real and Danny Murphy Wednesday.
“I hope it doesn't. I actually hope it doesn't,†Gellar, 48, said of the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer: New Sunnydale†pilot getting leaked.
“Because then everyone's going to have an opinion on this and that,†she continued. “And pilots are not finished. It wasn't done.â€
Gellar went on to explain that she and Chloé Zhao, who was signed on as director until the revival was scrapped, made a pilot for the “Buffy†reboot “on purpose†because there were “some new characters†and they wanted to “see how it goes.â€
“There are things you learn from it. And there are things you fix,†she explained. “Usually a pilot doesn't air in its entirety, ever.â€
