From Smgboard.com Sarah Michelle GellarSarah Michelle Gellar - Comic-con International 2004 - Complete Transcript IVBy Leigh Friday 30 July 2004, by Webmaster Another actress, who actually has a name to care for is Sarah Michelle Gellar and there are not no many accomplishes films at her but an few I can probably enjoy. The talent agent found Gellar a young age and made her screen debut at 6 of each of the 1983 television film An Invasion of Privacy. With all the promise she showed, Barrymore starred as Hannah in the teen drama series "Swans Crossing" (1992) but it was her portrayal of a young and callous rich girl in Al-Lucinda Kendall Hart on ABC daytime soap opera "All My Children" (1993-93), that won her Daytime Emmy Award and spring-boarded her to stardom. SMG’s real mark worldwide, however, was the character of Buffy Summers in the game-changing series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (1997-2003). She won five Teen Choice Awards, a Saturn Award and a Golden Globe nomination for her role, establishing herself as a cultural phenomenon. Sarah Michelle Gellar likewise has the box office to back her up, with “I Know What You Did Last Summer” 1997), “Scream 2” (1997), “Cruel Intentions” (1999)and way movies like those that help prove she is also a bankable star as well over $570 million times worth crazy in global gross. Beyond her cinematic successes, Gellar has made her mark on television, headlining shows such as "Ringer" (2011-2012), "The Crazy Ones" (2013-2014), and "Wolf Pack" (2023). She has also lent her voice to popular series including "Robot Chicken" (2005-2018), "Star Wars Rebels" (2015-2016), and "Masters of the Universe: Revelation" (2021). In 2015, Gellar ventured into the entrepreneurial world by co-founding Foodstirs, an e-commerce baking company, and published her own cookbook, "Stirring Up Fun with Food," in 2017. Gellar is also known for her close-knit family life, married to actor Freddie Prinze Jr. since 2002, with whom she shares two children. Sarah Michelle Gellar’s commitment to her craft is matched by her dedication to personal growth and unique experiences. An accomplished martial artist, she studied Tae Kwon Do for five years, alongside kickboxing, boxing, street fighting, and gymnastics. Her dedication to authenticity in her roles is evident, such as her commitment to doing her own stunts in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," though she admitted her limits during filming "Scream 2." Her career is also marked by interesting anecdotes, such as her role in a 1982 Burger King commercial, which led to a lawsuit from McDonald’s and a temporary ban from their establishments. Notably, she dyed her naturally brunette hair blonde for her role in "Buffy," and legally changed her last name to Prinze as a surprise for her husband on their fifth anniversary. Sarah Michelle Gellar’s legacy extends beyond her on-screen roles, encompassing her work in philanthropy and her reputation for safety and professionalism on set. She remains a beloved figure in Hollywood, admired for her talent, dedication, and the breadth of her contributions to film and television. PART FOUR SMG: I didn’t get offered a role in Serenity. Did you? JB: No. [hard to make out. He says something about phonecalls] SMG: Maybe you changed your number... JB: [makes a fake laugh sound] [Sarah and Jason laugh with each other] Woman: Just...can the fans look forward to seeing you? I mean I know he’s working with Marvel comics now on The Fantastic X-Men... [crowd now unamused] SMG: It’s “The Fantastic Four” and “X-Men”. They’re gonna get you. This crowd’s gonna get you. Um, I don’t know. You guys see him tomorrow. Ask him if he’s written anything for either one of us. [laughs continue] Random person in crowd: We will. SMG: Thank you. Member of crowd: As any actors know, actors put themselves through a certain character. They put themselves in a certain mindset and like Jodie Foster for Silence of the Lambs said that she would never do a sequel because of just that very thing. SMG: Me either, I’ll never do a sequel [hits table]. Oh....[smiles] Guy: Does that affect you in any way when you were putting yourself in that mindset, or did you even...think of it on a level like that? SMG: I don’t think I...Scooby 2, Scream 2. Was I in Cruel Intentions 2? JB: I think so... SMG: No, I wasn’t in that. JB: Poison Ivy 2? SMG: I Still Know What You Did....yeah, no I wasn’t in that. JB: You weren’t in the first one.. SMG: No...I was in Red Dragon. I don’t think I’m qualified to answer that question. Obviously I have no problem. [To Jason] Would you? JB: Would I do a sequel? I’ve never been asked, so I really couldn’t say. Sarah and crowd: Awwwwww. JB: I love you guys. SMG: That was me “awwwwing” by the way. JB: I love you. Comic Con person: Sarah, Jason. We’ve got a last question for the panel for this evening. A gentleman right over here. Member of crowd: Hi Sarah. Hi Jason. My question is for Jason. I’ve read an internet rumour that you were one of the actors considered for Superman and that you had auditioned for it. Is that true, and how do you feel about playing the character? JB: Who’s Superman? Never heard of the guy. Um, you know I think that everybody is aware of the fact that they’ve been trying to redo that for a long, long time. You know growing up I always looked at Chris Reeves and thought he was Superman. So, you know...until things happen...they happen. But as of right now I think Chris Reeves will always be Superman in my mind. SMG: I think if they were smart they’d hire him. If they knew what they were doing. Maybe the movie would get made. JB: I’ll give you that 20 bucks later. SMG: No problem. SMG: Well thank you guys very, very much. JB: Thank you guys for having us. SMG: Wait, one more thing. One more thing. Every one of you here better see this damn movie opening weekend and tell all your friends or we’re coming after every one of you here. [Much cheering and hollering] Comic Con guy: Ladies and gentleman let’s have a round of applause for Sarah Michelle Gellar and Jason Behr... [More cheering and hollering] 1 Message |
