The Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot is no more.
Sarah Michelle Gellar confirmed that the planned project, which would come over two decades after Buffy's final bow, is not moving forward.
"So, I am really sad to have to share this, but I wanted you all to hear it from me," the actress, 48, said in an Instagram video shared on Saturday, March 14.
"Unfortunately, Hulu has decided not to move forward with Buffy: New Sunnydale," she continued, referring to the streamer, which backed the series, and the title for the reboot.
