Sarah Michelle Gellar is reportedly deep into negotiations to reprise her role as a stake-wielding killer of the undead in a “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” pilot series coming to Hulu.

Gellar, 47, would again play the Buffy Summers character she brought to life from 1997 to 2003 in her WB, then UPN, series, according to Variety. But rather than portraying a high school student tasked with saving the world from evil, Gellar will reportedly have a recurring role in support of a new vampire slayer.

It’s not clear who that young slayer will be. Gellar said in 2022 that Zendaya, now 28, had her vote. A year earlier, Gellar told interviewer and actor Mario Lopez that as a middle-age adult, she was no longer the right candidate for that role.

The new show would be produced by Gellar and previous “Buffy” producers Gail Berman, Fran Kuzui and Kaz Kuzui, as well as singer Dolly Parton, according to Variety.

Despite being a creative force behind the original series, Joss Whedon doesn’t appear to be involved in the reported revamp.

Kardashian flub ends up on Adrien Brody’s Instagram

Adrien Brody’s Instagram recently got a major surge in activity, all thanks to Kim Kardashian.

“The Brutalist” actor recounted to host Jimmy Fallon on Monday’s episode of “The Tonight Show” how Kardashian mixed him up with Adam Brody in a message on her Instagram story last month, raving about the Netflix series “Nobody Wants This.”

“She blew up my internet,” Adrien Brody said. “My Instagram just went crazy.”

In her post, Kardashian wrote that she “binged 4 episodes until I fell asleep” and gushed that “Nobody Wants This” is “sooooo good,” according to an enlarged screen grab of her post, which was shown by Fallon on the show.

The reality star also tagged the show’s two creators, sisters Erin and Sara Foster, plus actor Kristen Bell, Netflix and … Adrien Brody.

To avoid any further confusion, allow us to clarify that Adrien Brody does not star in the hit rom-com series. Former “OC” star Adam Brody does.
