Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors Sarah Michelle Gellar's Buffy the Vampire Slayer famously died and returned from the dead not once but twice in her hit series, and it looks like the star wants other "Buffy" characters to know how it feels. Speaking to Vanity Fair Italia about the upcoming "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" reboot, Gellar said she not only wants characters from the original series to return, but to bring back "everyone who has died."

Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy the Vampire Slayer. 20th Century Studios Considering the subject matter of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" - a show set in a town sitting on top of a Hellmouth acting as a magnet for all types of demons, monsters, and supernatural villains - the show's body count was fairly high. But there are some characters whose resurrections would be cause for more celebration than others. At the top of the list is Amber Benson's Tara. Introduced in Season 4, Tara is a powerful witch and girlfriend to Alyson Hannigan's Willow. In what remains one of the darkest and most controversial moments in the series, Tara is abruptly killed toward the end of Season 6. Then there's James Marsters' Spike, a reformed vampire who sacrifices himself to save the world in the "Buffy" series finale. Spike was already resurrected in the spinoff series "Angel", but the finale to that series rendered the vampire's fate uncertain. Another popular candidate could be Robia Scott's Jenny Calendar. A love interest for Anthony Stewart Head's Rupert Giles, Calendar dies fairly early in "Buffy", in Season 2, and quite brutally at the hands of Dave Boreanaz's Angel. Whoever is resurrected in the "Buffy" reboot, they'll find themselves in a different kind of world from the original series. Gellar talked about updating the story for today's world. "One of the surprising aspects of 'Buffy' is that it's always been a crossover series," Gellar said. "We're trying to figure out how to modernize the themes of the series, especially what it means to feel like an outsider in a world dominated by social media.
