Michelle Trachtenberg - ’Buffy’ Movie - About.com Interview

Tuesday 15 March 2005, by Webmaster

You said you don’t like playing the same character twice. Does that mean you wouldn’t do a sequel to “Ice Princess?” What about the possibility of a “Buffy” movie?

I’m sure that there was tons of talk. I’d heard something here and there. The thing that I never want to play a character again... I don’t mean any disrespect for the creators and producers of my previous projects because I never pick a project carelessly. I always have some heart attached to it. “Buffy” was my all-time favorite show before I was on it. So I loved Dawn. She was an awesome character and that was where I was at that point in my life. I was, you know, 14-17, which is hugely different. I’m almost 20 now. I’ll be 20 in October, so reprising a character is something... Never say never. As opposed to a sequel for this - the story would have to be amazing because I really feel so proud of what we have on the screen right now. It’s not a Disney kitschy movie. It’s a heartfelt, loving story. And to have anything less than that as a sequel would be doing a disservice to the original story. So you never know.

What if “Buffy” creator Joss Whedon came up with an idea for a “Buffy” movie in which Dawn was in a completely different place and much older? Would you be interested then?

You never know. Again, like I said, you’d have to see the material and also I have so many projects that I want to do right now after “Ice Princess” and all that, that you have to make sure it fits into that vein because I believe every actor’s path is sort of set. You don’t want to veer too much away from moving on and growing as an actor.
