A new Buffy, without Joss Whedon?

The producers of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie are looking to reboot the franchise in a new movie without the participation of creator Joss Whedon, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

While the Buffy concept could be rebooted, has enough time really passed to do this?  And is doing it without Joss Whedon the way to go?  Competing against the “Buffy: The Vampire Slayer” TV show is going to be tough sledding, and, where do you go with it? Do you bring in characters like Angel and Spike, who didn’t exist in the original movie? According to the article, there are no plans to do so.  So do you bring in Buffy and a whole new supporting cast?   What are your thoughts?

I have been waiting for someone to do this… and the only way the movie would be successful would be to stay as true to the T.V show, with original cast and star icons as Angel, Willow, Zander etc, witty conversations, kick ass fighting from our heroine, grander scale plot though. Def do the movie!

Definately do the movie. Withh ALL original characters including Angel. Him and Buffy need to be together!… Do the TV shows

i think this is a terrible idea. Its already be done just leave it at that. Also without joss whedon?!?! PA-LEASE that will result in definate failure. dont get me wrong i love bufy the vampire slayer but idt sarah michelle gellar is even going to take part in it…. and i dont think buffy really needs another incarnation so fast… idk about you guys but i have really warmed up to the fact that buffy is sarah michelle gellar. leave it at that. <3 sarahmichellegellar
