Megan Fox Is the New Buffy?

Source:  Cinefools
Megan Fox could be the new BuffyCinefools has reported a rumor circulating the industry that Megan Fox is being considered for the title role in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer revamp that's been in talks for just little over a month.

It might be way too early to talk casting news since it is not set up at a studio as of yet.

Would Megan Fox even make a good Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

If FOX makes this I will seriously kill the CEO and the director. Then I will seduce Megan Fox for about a week then toss her to the side like yesterday's trash.

she's hot no doubt, but she lacks a little thing called ACTING TALENT! The only thing i'll watch her in is the TRACI LORDS story, lol. She's eye candy and she needs to accept it!

BUFFY is a uninteresting character, so this should match FOX quite well with the project.

I'd rather watch Buffy, Angel and Spike all collectively die and get resurrected 10 times over in a single film than watch this upcoming Hollywood tripe.

Bad enough they would even consider doing this movie without Joss, but this chick?!?! You've got to be kidding me...

I'm with pablouk. If she does this movie, she should do it naked.

I want these producers to seriously ask themselves, when people hear "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" do they think, oh the Kristy Swanson movie, or do they think, the seven-year running Sarah Michelle Gellar starring, fan-beloved TV series, and they'll realize just how unprofitable it is to alienat that quarter of fans by pulling this shit. People don't just love Buffy, they love the whole arsenal of characters. Even if they don't show up in this movie, there needs to be room for them later on. Get Whedon involved more directly in this one, or they might as well call this one "White Girl Blade".

Otherwise this film doesn't matter, and is a preemptive clusterfuck POS. The fact that they've decided to ignore the TV show, the source of Buffy's major fan base, is insulting enough that this film is a meaningless piece of shit already. Yes, I know the original film came first, yes, I know Whedon wrote it (although he always considered the series to be a better execution of his idea) and yes, I know it's a cult classic. But when people hear Buffy, like it or not they primarily think of the TV series and the characters therein.

Fox should do the Tomb Raider movie instead of this and bring Gellar back for Buffy.

Fox is getting worse and worse every film. FOX CAN'T ACT! And it's stupid to make a Buffy movie not based on the show, that's where all the fans are.

A revamp Buffy is an ok idea, concidering the first film was prior to the show, and they both had nothing incommon other then the name buffy realy. Fox would be ok as buffy, but the has to move away from both the show and the original movie to make it work in any way. But the fact that the show is being ignored as a partial story-line, or even have a connection, will alienate fans, and maybe push people away couse of the completly diffrent plot, besides killing Vamps.In the show, they spoke of diffrent slayers. So why not just call it Slayer, and make her a vamp killer some where eles, and have Sarah do a cameo as Buffy? that is better then trying to redo a entire story.

if they cast her it shows they really have more interest in making $$ than they do rebooting the franchise. she is already attached to two major franchises, a third could be pushing it (Tomb Raider or Buffy; though I think she might do ok in TR). Buffy either needs to be SMG or an unknown that has the chops and look to bring the dying/dead to back to life. if they recast buffy, then all parts need to be recast and it needs to be given a different feel/look.

is this a movie or tv series?

This better be a rumor. The woman can't act, and she's not even that hot.

No thanks, but if you guys want it, that fine with me.

remaking tv shows into new movies is a horrible waste of money especially when the tv show just ended a few years back. wait longer. as for megan fox she really hasn't had a chance to show her skills for a staring role i'd use someone who u knew could handle it.

i don't much care for megan fox.

Not a wise choice, she maybe hot but stake yourself.
I won't be watching it anyway, I would rather see Sarah pass the torch to a new Slayer than have it revamped.

What the deuce! She's not BLONDE! :P

JK. Funny how she's playing a vampire this year and then be slaying vampires in another.

For the first time here......I agree with the first comment by calegreen witch means "I don't have anything to say.....Megan Fox is hot. I want to jerk off now!" ...........and no Buffy role for her! No way!

June 10th, 2009 5:54am
u got that right newkill its like Sarah is an old lady or anything she could easily do it and it would make the fans happy and that would result in $$$$ at te box office.

June 10th, 2009 4:14am
I don't care how hot she is, i'd still rather see Sarah Michelle Gellar do it.
  (Delete)
June 10th, 2009 4:13am
I'd rather see her as Tomb Raider, but this would work, too...she resembles a younger Angelina Jolie
