Dolly’s production company, Sandollar Productions, which the singer co-founded with her former manager, Sandy Gallin, had co-produced all seven seasons of the show, as well as the spinoff show Angel.
“They’re still working on that,” Dolly told reporters, without specifying who is involved in the project.
“They’re thinking about bringing it back and revamping it.”
Buffy the Vampire Slayer was created by writer and director Joss Whedon, and centred around the eponymous character, the latest in a succession of young women chosen by fate to battle against vampires, demons and other forces of darkness.
The series received critical and popular acclaim, and is often counted among the greatest television series of all time.
American film director and producer Fran Rubel Kuzui had attempted to reboot Buffy with a new movie in 2009.
However, fans of the show, and some of its cast members, had criticised the project for not involving Joss.
In 2018, Joss and producer and screenwriter Monica Owusu-Breen collaborated on a proposed reboot with a Black actor playing one of the leads, but it received backlash from fans who assumed a Black actor would play Buffy.
On X, formerly known as Twitter, Monica suggested the reboot would introduce new characters, but “There is only one Buffy,” she wrote.
Although plans for an on-screen reboot have yet to come to fruition, the world of the show has extended to other mediums.
Several ‘Buffy’ cast members reunited last year for an Audible series set after the events of the show, which concluded in 2003.
Slayers: A Buffyverse Story picks up 10 years after the ‘Buffy’ series finale and focuses on a new slayer, Indira (voiced by Laya DeLeon Hayes), and Buffy’s former vampire lover, Spike (voiced by James Marsters).
Anthony Head, Charisma Carpenter, Juliet Landau, Emma Caulfield, Amber Benson, James Charles Leary, and Danny Strong also reprised their roles from the TV series.
Speaking of the original series, Dolly added that while she was ‘very involved,’ the credit for the show’s success is down to the people who worked on it every day.
“A lot of my work was done just conversing back and forth with the business people there,” the singer added.
“I have to give more people more credit on Buffy the Vampire Slayer than me. That little show did great.”
