![]() At least sixteen other Slayers of various backgrounds were portrayed in the series following the episode “Chosen,” including one played by Felicia Day. Upon Kendra’s death, we were introduced to her Slayer replacement Faith, played by Eliza Dushku, who would co-star in the series for 20 episodes. Early word from the production is that the slayer to lead the new show will also be played by a black actress. Kendra, a fantastic and charismatic killing machine played by Bianca Lawson, was a Jamaican potential slayer who replaced Buffy Summers’s Slayer for three episodes after Buffy’s first death on the show (Buffy was quickly revived with CPR). ![]() ![]() So maybe, it could be time to meet a new Slayer … And that’s all I can say.”įans will recall that a new Slayer took the place of a Slayer that had been killed–at least in the early seasons of the show. But here we are, 20 years later … and the world seems a lot scarier. Joss Whedon’s brilliant and beautiful series can’t be replicated. One Xander, one Willow, Giles, Cordelia, Oz, Tara, Kendra, Faith, Spike, Angel … They can’t be replaced. I watched her fight, and struggle and slay. For seven seasons, I watched Buffy Summers grow up, find love, kill that love. Buffy the Vampire Slayer is my Star Wars,” Osuwu-Breen posted on Twitter today. Whedon will again serve as executive producer of the series, with returning producers going back to the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie, Gail Berman, Joe Earley, Fran Kazui, and Kaz Kazui. Today Owusu-Breen confirmed the project is real, while also clarifying a new slayer is on her way, but not Sarah Michelle Gellar’s Buffy from the original seven-year series. Monica Owusu-Breen, a writer on popular genre series including Charmed, Fringe, Lost, Alias, and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., has been working with Buffy creator Joss Whedon on a new story, and she has been tapped as showrunner for the new series. After almost a week of rumor, the showrunner of a series that will continue the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer confirmed the series isn’t merely a rumor today.
