In my opinion, “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” stands out as one of the greatest teen dramas ever made. When it was originally aired, it shared the spotlight with its spinoff “Angel,” and both series created a vast cinematic universe. The “Angel” series, available on Hulu with a subscription, initially had a modest cast featuring Charisma Carpenter as the captivating Cordelia Chase. As we approach the “Buffy” reboot, Carpenter has expressed thoughts about her character’s untimely demise and the possibility of reprising the role.

Enthusiasts erupted with excitement upon hearing that a preliminary script for a revival of the popular series Buffy, featuring Sarah Michelle Gellar, was being developed. Fans are now speculating which other original cast members might reprise their roles, especially since Gellar hinted at resurrecting deceased characters in interviews with IGN. When asked about this prospect, Carpenter provided some insight:

I won’t engage in an argument with you about it, because the way things unfolded for her seemed extremely unfair. She had been highly respected, achieved so much growth, and experienced an incredible journey. It was simply heartbreaking to see her end like that.

In simpler terms, as an avid fan, I can confirm that she wasn’t mistaken. For most of Season 4, Cordelia was under possession, which was her last full season as a regular character due to Carpenter leaving the series. However, she reappeared in one episode during the fifth and final season, where it was disclosed that she had passed away after being in a coma. Although fans were thrilled for another glimpse of their favorite character, her departure was rather abrupt.

Supporters speculate that Cordelia’s character arc may have stemmed from personal conflicts. Actress Charisma Carpenter publicly criticized creator/showrunner Joss Whedon, alleging he misused his authority and verbally mistreated her. Hence, the prospect of seeing more of the cherished Sunnydale High graduate is undeniably thrilling.

During the subsequent part of the interview, Charisma Carpenter expressed further thoughts regarding the prospect of a Buffy revival, touching upon her character’s demise in the spinoff. To quote her directly:

Later in the interview, Charisma Carpenter shared her opinions about potentially reprising her role in Buffy’s return, discussing the fate of her character from the spinoff. Here’s what she said:

I’m not quite sure how to interpret this, but it seems that Cordelia passed away in Angel, not Buffy. I can’t say for certain what that implies about Cordelia, but I’m optimistic that she will be included somehow, as it would be wonderful if she were. It would also be very poetic if that happened, especially given this particular group. The writers on this project are incredibly imaginative, so if there is a desire or demand for Cordelia to appear, I believe they could make it happen with their exceptional creativity.

Let’s hope for the best, fans! If we manage to revive characters from the iconic Buffy universe, you can bet that Cordelia will serve up the wit and charm we crave. Resurrection of characters is nothing new, as it has occurred in both the main series and Angel spin-off.

In the non-live setting, Charisma Carpenter recently portrayed Cordelia Chase in the Audible series “Slayers: A Buffyverse Story.” This narrative employs the idea of multiple universes to resurrect deceased characters, including a version of Cordelia who became the Slayer instead of Buffy.

As a movie enthusiast, I can’t help but express my anticipation for a full-fledged revival of the iconic series, “Buffy.” Hulu would need to officially greenlight such a project for us to unravel the mysteries that unfolded in the pilot and beyond. The future remains uncertain, but the return of Sarah Michelle Gellar as our beloved Buffy has certainly sparked excitement among fans. Let’s hope for the best and keep our fingers crossed!

On Hulu, you can stream both “Angel” and “Buffy” in their entirety. Although it’s not yet confirmed for the 2025 TV lineup, there’s a glimmer of hope that we might see a fresh season of episodes.
