Jun 11 2009Megan Fox replacing Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy?

Megan Fox is allegedly stealing another franchise role. IGN reports that she's being considered for the reboot of Buffy the Vampire Slayer:
Fox is being eyed to play the title role of Buffy Summers in the recently announced big-screen relaunch of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The new movie will not involve Joss Whedon or be tied in anyway to either the 1992 film or the TV series starring Sarah Michelle Gellar that followed.
Smart move. This will silence any male Buffy fans who are concerned about the movie by giving them nerd boners. As for the female fans, simply cast Robert Pattinson and make sure he never wears a shirt. In fact, the end credits should consist of nothing but his airbrushed abs. Or mine, if he's busy that day. Hopefully no one will notice the jarring transition from pale to golden awesome.

Buffy without SMG or Joss Whedon? What's the point?
3. Sportsdvl - June 11, 2009 11:38 AM
Are you kidding me? Buffy wasn't a skank so why let Megan Fox play the part?
4. Danielle - June 11, 2009 11:39 AM
UGH. I am not a fan of Fox.
She's hot, but she knows it and acts like she knows it and that's just ugly.
SMG and JW...that's the way to go.
eff this.

Aren't most Buffy fans fat girls(like Twilight fans, but older and more bitter)? It's a known fact that fat girls hate Megan Fox so this Buffy shit will flop with Fox in it. Sarah Michelle Gellar was cute in an ugly way with her weird nose and eyes, actually her whole face is odd looking and her body was meh, so fat girls accepted her and she could act some so that worked out.
The only thing Fox can be in is Transformer type movies since she can't act worth a shit. Vampire movies are too quirky so people want someone more unique (ie nerdy hot or ugly hot) in them who can actually act because vampire stuff is so deep and meaningful (vomit). Fox just needs to stand next to exploding cars and pour water on herself, now that's a movie that will do well.

I will burn down the fucking studio if they cast Robert Pattinson in this.
11. NotGoingToHappen - June 11, 2009 12:04 PM
Its pointless to do a buffy movie without JW and SMG.....and I highly doubt Megan Fox would take the role anyways.
12. havoc - June 11, 2009 12:12 PM
She's smokin hot for sure. But is she in the news every fucking day or what?

Sarah would never do Buffy again anyway. Buffy without Joss is bull!
and Miss 'I'm all that and a bag of chips' Fox needs to realize that just cause your hot doesn't mean you can act... and she can't!
This movie would be a spit in the eye to any true Buffy fan. And if any original cast member signed on to this movies not only would I be surprised I would be disgusted!
If they wanted they could do Fray or something else... not Buffy!
$$ is all that matters to people and they don't care about much else... sad really that's why we have a dozen shit remakes a year and nothing new coming out to inspire the next generation.
BUFFY 4EVER!!!
17. ltestington - June 11, 2009 12:36 PM
Oh Hell No! Worst decision ever! There is no other Buffy but if there must be it had better not be a talentless fake tittied nosejob skank
I say Annalynn McCord or Emma Roberts
18. Tawmie - June 11, 2009 12:40 PM
No Joss Whedon!? Are they mentally deficient?
And I'll also pass on the Megan Fox. She is no buffy.
19. Cash907 - June 11, 2009 12:50 PM
Unless they want to completely alienate Buffy fans even more then they already have, there is no way they'd cast this turbo skank as the slayer. I could see this tatooed troll as Faith maybe, but Buffy? Hell no.
20. Rick - June 11, 2009 12:55 PM
Megan Fox is one incredibly beautiful woman. She will be a successful movie star for many years to come.

It'll never happen. No way. No Joss? No SMG? And if I find out that David Boreanaz has anything to do with this trainwreck, I'll personally hunt him down and force-feed him donuts to make him fat, again. I'll flush his damn career.
That goes for Eliza Dushku, too.

Why can't Hollywood think of new concepts instead of recycling old material continually? Want to make a vampire movie - why name it the same thing but not have any tie-in. Stupid
26. Alex - June 11, 2009 1:53 PM
Smidge IS Buffy. Joss Whedon IS Buffy. Megan Fox is a perfect for a charlies angel movie or a Love Boat remake. Don't fuck with perfection.
As others have said, no Joss = no buffy.
27. Nora - June 11, 2009 2:32 PM
No no no no no. SMG is Buffy, Megan Fox is a no talent cock sucking master, she'll be fine in porn where acting isnt as important.
28. dirk - June 11, 2009 2:49 PM
She has a case of the disappearing tits, no?
29. EuroNeckPain - June 11, 2009 2:56 PM

Ferget it... who the hell wants to watch Buffy without Joss or SMG.
31. Io - June 11, 2009 3:17 PM
I see Hollywood is being their typical unimaginative self when it comes to casting...'we want megan fox, she's hot, who cares if she can act blah blah blah' instead of actually getting someone who could do the job well and look good doing it.
32. Kathleen - June 11, 2009 3:25 PM
Ugh, enough of this over-rated broad
33. Jen - June 11, 2009 4:14 PM
Just, no. Buffy needs to be played by a smart woman, and whilst she is definitely wicked hot, Megan Fox is not exactly a candidate for MENSA. Not to mention, a BtVS remake without Joss Whedon would be ridiculously bad.
All around, a terrible idea.
34. The Listener - June 11, 2009 5:41 PM
This movie is likely going to suck if you're a fan of the series, but if you've never seen it, you'll probably like it.
How many stories can you tell involving vampires. C'mon now. Can't someone come up with original story lines with intricate plots and high action adventure?
Guess not. Hollywood just keeps going back to the same old well.
35. kilngoddess - June 11, 2009 5:59 PM

Megan can slay vamps by simply showing them her ever-so-nasty ToeThumbs(tm).

nooooooooooooooo. Why do we even hear so much about her in magazines etc she hasn't even been in that many movies.
38. Corina - June 11, 2009 7:15 PM
What the fuck.
What the fuck.
Serious, WHAT THE FUCK?
Why on EARTH would you remake that movie? It was fuckin' terrible.
Why would you even attempt to make a Buffy related movie without Joss Whedon? Do people not realize that he has such a cult following that cutting him out of the film will result in shit sales (and of course, a shit movie)?
Fuck this.
39. Jamie - June 11, 2009 7:28 PM
Megan fox is gross! Her face looks plastic, and she definately looks like she tattooed her eyebrows on her forhead. Buffy is such a bad idea without JW, what the hell were they thinking?! Apparantly nothing good if they're even going to consider the bitch from hell.

42. Yeah - June 11, 2009 7:43 PM
Please God, no. Megan Fox is shit. She'd make an awful Buffy. I would pay to see her in a porno. But just once, for novelty's sake.
43. Greg - June 11, 2009 7:52 PM
Forget Megan Fox... Over rated. Buffy movie relauch is the stupidest idea of 2009. I could see her being Faith as one person said. But Sarah Michelle Gellar will always be Buffy. Josh Whedon is the only man who had the vision to make it a success. Leave well enough alone.
44. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! - June 11, 2009 9:35 PM

45. Breakup Makeup - June 11, 2009 11:31 PM
She's soooooooooooo hot. Sarah was an amazing Buffy though, Megan is going to have to take on a whole new angle with this to separate herself from Gellar.
46. datroof - June 11, 2009 11:50 PM
A reboot? Are you kidding?
This character is maybe 10 years old, but somehow it needs a reboot already?
That says all that needs to be said about how shallow the whole concept really is. It was a cheap, unimaginative attempt at a camp film that became a 2nd rate tv series. Even the title screams "I'm a one-note indy comic from 1992."
Batman needed a reboot. Superman needed a reboot. Spiderman needed a reboot. Xmen needed a reboot.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer can apply for her legit reboot in about 50 years.
47. datroof - June 11, 2009 11:57 PM
Oh yeah: Wonder Woman needs a reboot.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer needs to grow up.
And the fact that Megan Fox things Wonder Woman is a lame hero, but Buffy the Vampire Slayer is worth doing speaks volumes about how shallow Megan Fox is.
Megan Fox is beautiful, physically. But she's got all the depth of a rain puddle in July. And she's got shitty tats.
48. DOES IT REALLY MATTER? - June 12, 2009 12:03 AM
I won't be watching the movie, Megan Fox is not a good fit for Buffy because 1. Buffy has always been a blonde 2. I can't stand Megan Fox. Why didn't they just get SMG to reprise the role? Probably cuz she is too old now? I'm guessing! However, Buffy started off as Kristy Swanson, then she was played by SMG. Both of them are blondes or bottle blondes, but who cares. Unless Megan is willing to go blonde, which I don't think will suit her then I see no way that she can pull this off. WTF were they even thinking considering her? There are a gazillion blonde actresses that more closely resemble KS or SMG that could play the part.
49. Brooke - June 12, 2009 12:14 AM
I'd rather see a Full House remake or even a Saved by the Bell remake since we've already got a redone 90210 and are about to get a Melrose Place, I say stick with that era. Buffy (the franchise) is not old enough for a remake. Without Joss it will likely be a huge disaster. Sometimes, I wonder why can't Hollywood come up with original concepts? I'm kind of sick of remakes. If they want to bring back the show and just revamp it, then fine meaning bring it back with the same exact cast, directors, writers, ect. but don't redo it completley. I hate that! I love vampire shows/movies, but we have True Blood for the adults, Twilight for the Teens and are fixing to have another series soon based on L.J. Smith books so.....leave it alone already. I will stick with my True Blood, which I love.
50. nicky - June 12, 2009 12:46 AM
Basically anything Buffy without Joss or the original cast will be trash in my opinion and not even worth seeing, but to cast someone like Fox as Buffy? pffttt bullshit. The movie will flop and I believe true buffy fans will protest.
51. zzzzzzzzzz - June 12, 2009 2:26 AM
I want to see more of her acne scarred skin! more close-ups please!
stupid bitch, she needs to get some more surgery cause she doesn't look plastic enough yet
52. jane - June 12, 2009 3:29 AM
the whole point of the buffy character was Joss wanting to show the helpless looking BLONDE girl steriotype from horror films being strong and kidding arse.
Megan fox is the exact opposite. bad casting choice.
53. Don Knotts - June 12, 2009 3:55 AM
I vote Carrie Prejean for Buffy. She's a blonde. What? Too soon?

Megan Fox is a no-talent retard. No Sarah Michelle Gellar equals Buffy being a joke. I dont care if she's in her thirties, only gellar is Buffy, not this jumped up half witted nothing!
58. Meream - June 12, 2009 9:53 AM
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE. Might as well pray that Glory take over the world now.
59. MEH - June 12, 2009 10:10 AM
LOL @ all you pathetic women blasting on Megan simply because you grew up watching that jacked up nose ugly troll Sarah! Sarah can't act either and Megan is 10x's hotter.
60. Galtacticus - June 12, 2009 10:57 AM
I just was thinking that she has the looks for a vampire-role.It would be a good match!
61. Katelyn - June 12, 2009 12:52 PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Robert Pattinson is the most overrated actor and is not sexy one tiny bit (sorry, I like my men to be manly, not look like their oversized harido is going to knock them over.
Anyway, give Buffy back to the Kuzuis who nearly destroyed it the first time around? No Whedon involvement or tie in to the show (the only successful form of the story)? Not even Megan Fox's sexy ass (which I will concede, is damn sexy) can save this pic.
62. Lbizness - June 12, 2009 1:28 PM
NOOOOOOOx100Million!!
I can't stand Megan Fox, not because I think she's un-hot, but because she is so full of it. She's probably getting used to being the media darling of thesuperficial.com, but I say salute the original, not the fake!
Seriously, what would be the point of not involving Joss Whedon? I LOVE buffy and have all seven seasons. There's no going back from that.
63. Olivia - June 12, 2009 4:55 PM
This is the best idea since Bambi 2, what?
So so so so so, stupid. Without Joss involved, its not Buffy. And I can't imagine him casting, Megan Fox, because she can't act and she's just a shallow kitty pool kind of attractive.
But if they plan on going all out, they should cast, Fabio as Giles, Shanna Sans as Willow, Kanye West as Xander and Spencer Pratt as Spike, casting done.

65. NO/ # 9 likes to talk sh*t - June 12, 2009 5:17 PM
No or # 9 watched Buffy from the age of 18 till the age of 22. I between 100-105 then...something for you to think about. You remind of a "genius" who once said that facebook is for fat people.
Self proclaimed intellectuals who are arrogant with big mouths are annoying.
66. NO/ # 9 likes to talk sh*t - June 12, 2009 5:25 PM
oh yeah...the reason why the show is actually decent(even though it is about a vampire slayer) is because Joss Whedon was in charge of it.

Megan Fox is kinda POV the way she is clutching that microphone. I can see he clutching my schlong in much the same way, with much the same facial expression, until of course, I splooge on her face, then her tongue would be licking my batter off. Ah, let me rest and dream a little bit.
70. justinkredible - June 13, 2009 12:49 PM
She would be an upgrade in the looks department, but SMG is superior to her in the acting department.

Megan Fox is a boring piece of shit. I am so bored with her and all of her insignificant news.

74. Eddie - June 15, 2009 6:27 PM
Buffy without Joss Whedon is like a Dawn of the Dead movie without Romero... a Star Wars movie without Lucas... or any television series from the 80s without Stephen J. Cannell.
I can see it surviving a complete cast-ectomy, but not a handoff from the creator, director, producer, writer and always-guiding hand of the franchise.
75. Meeleah - June 15, 2009 8:51 PM

i agree with some one who said they are trying to cash in with someones hard work sarah had always played buffy all through out the series untill it ended
we all no the story of buffy the vampire why try change it thats stupid

Okay, so you Megan Fox haters are stupid, she's awesome and CAN
act. Ya'll just jealous that you arent as gorgeous as her,
but if she would be Buffy, I would like...hurt her. Cuhs she CANT be
Buffy!
Seriously, a buffy movie with no SMG or JW? Wow, fucken gay.
Unless, the director was like...Marti Noxon, David Greenwalt, Jane Espenson, or David Fury.
And if they would have Robert Pattinson, i would kill myself.
No joke.
If they did re-do this, Megan Fox would be Faith not that i would want her to. That would suck ass.
80. Leejon - July 28, 2009 3:33 PM
