Sarah Michelle Gellar

Sarah Michelle Gellar is paying tribute to ’All My Children’ by returning to the show with one very crazy guest role, and we’ve got the exclusive first look video.

In the Wed., Sept. 21 episode, Gellar — who stars in The CW’s ’Ringer’ (premieres Tues., Sept. 13, 9PM ET) — will not be playing Kendall, the role she made famous.

Gellar originated the role of Kendall Hart, Erica Kane’s daughter, from 1993-1995. The ’Buffy’ veteran won a Daytime Emmy for her portrayal.

Now that Kendall is played by Alicia Minshew, Gellar specifically asked to return in a different capacity. So, who is she playing? According to TV Guide, Gellar will play a delusional hospital patient who thinks she’s Erica Kane’s daughter! Gellar’s character has a run-in with Dr. Maria Santos — yep, Eva La Rue is returning to ’All My Children,’ too — and recognizes her.

"It was a great pleasure to welcome Sarah back to Pine Valley and especially fun to have her character wink to the audience with fun lines that referenced her previous character," Julie Carruthers, executive producer on the soap, told TV Guide.

Gellar’s episode, one of the show’s last on ABC, is also dedicated to recently deceased star Mary Fickett. The actress originated the role of Ruth Martin and won the first Emmy given to a woman for daytime work.
