Sarah Michelle Gellar - "Southland Tales" Movie - Buffy in the buff

LIFE STYLE EXTRA (UK) - Sarah Michelle Gellar loved playing a porn star in new movie, ’Southland Tales’.

The former ’Buffy’ actress wanted to play the adult movie actress so much, she signed up for the film without even seeing a script.

Launching her film at the Cannes Film Festival, she revealed : "The director, Richard Kelly, came to me with presented the film so thoroughly that I couldn’t say no. It was a dream come true.

"I play Krysta Now who is an adult film star but she’s also a reality television star, she has an album, she has a soda drink... she’s a multi industry."

However, Gellar - who is married to her ’Scooby Doo’ co-star Freddie Prinze Junior - doesn’t want people to think of her character as just a porn star.

She said : "The most important thing to me is that it makes you re-examine things but it’s also evocative and that’s all that I ask of people, whether it makes you angry, whether it makes you sad, whether it makes you unhappy with the world.

"I want you to feel something and go home and talk about it and keep speaking about it."
