Per Hollywood Reporter, Joss Whedon is developing Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot with a black actress in the titular role. A network is not yet attached.
Whedon will be an exec producer on the series and has been working with Breen on the script, which features a black actress stepping into the role of Buffy made famous by Gellar.
Producers Fox 21 TV Studios will pitch the Buffy re-do to streaming and cable outlets later this summer in a package bound to ignite a bidding war.
