TL;DR

Hulu canceled the Buffy the Vampire Slayer: New Sunnydale reboot after a pilot directed by Chloé Zhao that sidelined Buffy; Sarah Michelle Gellar blamed a skeptical Hulu executive, while insiders say Zhao’s cinematic approach and a weak rewrite made the TV adaptation untenable, leaving the project in development limbo despite interest from other distributors.
