Buffy Sequel Series - Pilot Wrapped, Subtitle and Further Casting Revealed

I didn't want to do too many blog about filming for the pilot of the upcoming Hulu sequel series to Buffy The Vampire Slayer but here's the last relevant round up of information to go over.


- Once again our main cast for now are Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Nova (Ryan Kiera Armstrong), Mr Burke (Jack Cutmore-Scott), Abe (Daniel Di Tomasso), Gracie (Sarah Bock), Larkin (Ava Jean) and Hugo (Faly Rakotohavana).
- The official title for the show will be Buffy The Vampire Slayer: New Sunnydale.
- Filming for the pilot has officially wrapped. Filming for the series will happen later on.
- Chloe Zhao (Eternals, Hamnet) who directed the pilot confirmed that the show will take place 25 years after the series original ending.


- Chase Sui Wonders will guest in the pilot episode as a vampire named Shirley.
- Other characters confirmed for the pilot are Mrs LaDuca (Merrin Dungey), Jessica (Audrey Grace Marshall), Cole (Jensen Gering), Carson (Kingston Vernes), Keiko (Audrey Hsieh) and Shaz (Winston Vengapally).
- Again will air on Hulu (Disney+ for international audiences) but a release date has yet to confirmed.

Right now, some snippets of the script have leaked and some cringe dialogue to one side, it seems like there's potential with this series. We're still none the wiser if any other characters from the original series will pop up but neither are they being ruled out for now.

Are you looking forward to Buffy The Vampire Slayer: New Sunnydale? I'll be reviewing it when it does eventually release.
