Buffy returning to big screen?

The Australian Herald Sun newspaper is reporting that the success of the new vampire-themed Twilight could bring a return of Buffy the  Vampire Slayer to the big screen. It even says a screenplay is written and ready to be filmed.  Buffy first hit the big screen in 1992, but the movie, starring Kristy Swanson, was a flop. However, when Joss Whedon brought it to the small screen and cast Sarah Michelle Gellar in the lead role, the series was a hit and ran for years. It’s not clear whether Gellar would be brought back for the role — she’s now 31 — or whether a new, younger actress would be cast.
