Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Spike Definitely Working On Moving

Wednesday 23 April 2003, by Webmaster

While it’s still unclear if "Angel" will even be back for a fifth season on The WB, it seems to be even more unclear on who in the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" cast will be making the move over there.

During the recent wrap party for the "Buffy" series at the Fox studio sets, Sci-Fi Wire had a chance to catch up with some of the cast and crew.

Co-creator Joss Whedon said he’d like to see more than one person make the switch over to "Angel," even if it’s temporary.

"We’re still finding out who’s where and what’s what and making sure the show comes back," Whedon said. "But as far as I’m concerned, everybody should stop by. Next year, we have an entirely new thing planned, which I’m really excited about. And we’ll also be seeing some ’Buffy’ characters on it."

Of course, the question becomes exactly who will be making the move. The latest rumors have Anthony Stewart Head (Giles) and James Marsters (Spike) making the British invasion of the show.

"We’re trying to work it out," Marsters said. "There’s goodwill and a real want for that to work out. There are constraints involved. And so it’s not a lock. But I think that we’re all going to make a good effort to try to make that happen in some way. Time and money, man. Time and money."

Whedon said he was "pretty confident" that the show would be picked up for the next season.

"Let me put it this way," he said. "’Angel’ will be around. I just don’t know where."

Some reports have UPN interested in the series, although it’s no longer contractually obligated to pick up the series if The WB should decide to cancel it. Another report had the Fox network very interested in grabbing the show.

In a related story to the end of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," TV Guide is reporting that Simon & Schuster has announced it will release its final "Buffy" novel on May 20.
