In The News: Angel

Wednesday, February 18, 2004

HIGH STAKES: Angel fans may be deeply divided as to whether or not a certain slayer should play a part in the show’s series finale in May, but exec producer Joss Whedon isn’t: He wants Sarah Michelle Gellar back. "We’ll put out some feelers [again] to see if there’s some interest there," he told TV Guide Online last night. "We’d certainly love to have her." But Gellar nixed an earlier offer to guest-star on Angel this season and Whedon says he isn’t "banking" on her changing her mind. Still, we had to ask: If the Chosen One were to reappear in the Buffyverse, which of her undead loves would she be returning for - Spike or Angel? "You think I’m going to tell you that? I’m not going to tell you that," Whedon says. "If she were to come back it would be to answer that question."

MORE HIGH STAKES: In other Angel news, rumors that the axed WB drama could follow in Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s footsteps and put down stakes at rival network UPN are just that - rumors. "We’ve talked about the possibility," Whedon says, "but it’s a long shot." A UPN spokeswoman had no comment, but an Angel insider confirms that execs at Twentieth Century Fox (Angel’s producer) are putting together a proposal for UPN.
