For only the second time in her career as a geek goddess, Sarah Michelle Gellar is going to Comic-Con.
Gellar will star on The CW’s panel for her return to TV in the fall show Ringer. (For those who haven’t seen it yet, here’s the trailer.) She’ll take the stage along with co-stars Nestor Carbonell, Ioan Gruffudd, Kristoffer Polaha, and the show’s creative team. The panel will also give away a three-night stay in a luxurious hotel suite adjacent to Comic-Con (what every fan secretly wants — not posters or T-shirts, but the coveted hotel room upgrade).
The last time she was at the San Diego fan convention it was for her 2004 horror movie The Grudge. (Nope, not Buffy the Vampire Slayer.)
Nestor Carbonell AND Ioan Gruffudd?? I am so going to watch this show now!! Oh yeah, for Sarah too…but YEAH!!!
Oh come on, you have to be working for the TV show, I had to look those two names up just to see who they were.
Just because you never watched Lost (Nestor Carbonell) or Fantastic Four (Ioan Gruffudd), doesn’t mean the rest of us didn’t. Too bad tix are sold out.
I knew who they were.
I’m pretty sure he/she knows who Nestor Carbonell is… the name Declan Rand was a character (played by Nestor Carbonell) on Psych.
Wait for ittttttttt
All Hail SMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TRUU TRUU TRIZZ TRIZZ! OMFG SMG ALL THE TIME BBY!
and how can I get down to Comic-Con to see this in person!?
two feet and a heartbeat
…and tickets a year in advance.
Funny. She doesn’t even give a crap about a character that made her famous. She’s not going to promote Buffy or even want to be related to it, Buffy fan. I’ll pass.
um, why would she be promoting Buffy at this point? You’re seriously gonna be upset that she’s promoting a show she’s actually in currently? You’re retarded
For one she has said in soooo many interviews that she looves Buffy and it was/is the best thing she has ever done… she does give a crap about the show and character…
EXCELLENT. Sarah is going to take the world by storm. Again. Boom.
And every single question she takes will have to do with Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Man…I wish I could go to Comic Con. Oh well. I can’t wait for Ringer! SMG is great. This will be good publicity for the show.
Wow, it will be wild! She’s like the Comic Con Queen or something!
Anna Paquin would be now the Comic Con princess I guess, but Sarah, it’s really something big!
Can’t get excited over some chick in her 30′s from some show from the last century. My mom might watch the show though.
Then why read this article?! You’re so stupid, her role was iconic and inspired and influenced many of the shows on tv now and movies.
Bahaha, you’re kidding, right? She played Buffy, she will -never- be irrelevant.
Jeez, ageism much? With such a limited worldview you’re going to be cutting yourself off from some pretty fantastic stuff. Too bad for you.
Amazing news! Love SMG! Can’t wait for “Ringer”. Plus, the men in Ringer are HOT!
Why does every writer have to do a PRINCE AND THE PAUPER or EVIL TWIN scenario? Is it in the union by-laws? What channel is this on? Is it on one of the channels where the actresses get naked? Like Showtime? I would watch this if it were on Showtime and she got naked like on all their shows. Aren’t those shows awesome? The ones where the chicks get naked? If she doesn’t get naked I don’t think there’s any appeal for me to watch the show.
ummmm…you’re really creepy
BUTTERFACE !
I’m excited to have SMG back on TV. I really want this show to be good. She deserves a good show with good writing,producing,directing etc….
Buffy and Richard Alpert on the same stage is a geek dream I had never even imagined…I am soo freaking excited, I think this will be a great year for my first Comic-Con!
-crying forever-
I take you are all AMERICANS then?we loved buffy in the uk and i am sure she will be equally as good this time around. ps top totty!!
Americans loved it, too! Don’t judge us all by a few cranks on these boards.
