EXCLUSIVE: Sources say Chloé Zhao ultimately proved a mismatch for the “Buffy” reboot, with the pilot reportedly undershot and lacking coverage, requiring reshoots. Her filmmaking style, while acclaimed, didn’t translate to a dialogue-heavy TV pilot, and the new cast’s performances were said to be under-directed, making it difficult for the characters to land. variety.com/2026/tv/news/b…


This actually sounds really good. And Buffy only appearing at the end sounds like a typical twist for a pilot. This doesn’t suggest that she wouldn’t be an important part of the series. How short-sighted are the folks at Hulu???



Sarah Michelle Gellar breaks her silence on the “Buffy” reboot cancellation, blaming it on one executive who’s “not a fan of the original.” "No one saw this coming, including the head of Searchlight. I got the call as we were stepping onto stage for the premiere of their own movie. And it’s also the weekend of Chloé [Zhao] going to the Oscars as a best director nominee for Hamnet. For them to call us on the Friday of what should have been Chloé’s victory lap for an incredible film, and my world premiere of something that I worked very hard for is… That says something." "We had an executive on our show who was not only not a fan of the original, but was proud to constantly remind us that he had never seen the entirety of the series and how it wasn’t for him,” she said. “That’s very hard when you’re taking a property that is as beloved as Buffy, not just to the world, but to me and Chloé. So that tells you the uphill battle that we had been fighting since day one, when your executive is literally proud to tell you that he didn’t watch it." variety.com/2026/more/news…




According to Deadline, 9-1-1 is expected to be renewed for Season 10, but with the show “likely facing budget trims”. #911onABC 🔗: deadline.com/2026/02/abc-ca…
