‘Buffy’ star says reboot movie is a mistake

Nicholas Brendon aka Xander in 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer'

Former Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Nicholas Brendon has called the new Buffy reboot movie a “mistake”.

Speaking to E!, the actor, who played Xander Harris on Joss Whedon’s genre series, said that the film would probably have a hard time finding a fanbase.

“I think it’s a mistake. They have to reach a whole completely new fanbase, and we already have that fanbase. So it’s going to really be hard to do that. But you know everyone – they remade The Flintstones. Twice, I think,” Brendon explained.

He added about the remake: “I hope their vampires don’t glitter.”
