The Ankler ’s Lesley Goldberg reports thattheBuffyreboot will film in Los Angeles , just as the original serial publication did . Though there has been a effort for film and television productions to remain in Los Angeles , in particular after the devastating wildfires from in the first place this twelvemonth , it ’s also mentioned that the producers and talent involved felt that L.A. was the correct place for the reboot .

What The Location News Means For The Buffy Reboot

It Could Recapture The Original’s Look

The original show wasfilmed almost entirely in Los Angeles , set in the fictional township of Sunnydale , California . important locations inBuffy , including Sunnydale High and The Bronze , used exterior shot from blank space in California . That extends to the burial site , the Summers home , and Sunnydale University during the supernatural drama ’s middle seasons . It ’s unvoiced to extrapolate too much on what the location choice means for the reboot when all that ’s sleep with about the show is the executive producers involve , but the sequel series could presumably revisit some of the original ’s seminal moments .

The Zuckermans will executive produce , as will Zhao and Gellar alongside original producer Gail Berman , Fran Kuzui , and Kaz Kuzui . Dolly Parton , an uncredited producer during the original , is also among the executive producers for the 20th Television and Searchlight Television reboot . dealership Godhead Joss Whedonis not take in the undertaking , following the 2021 allegement of wrongdoing and nurture a toxic study environment .

There has been some conjecture among fans that the reboot will take place in Ohio , where there is a 2nd Hellmouth . However , the later news seems to hint that , at least for the buffer and the initial episodes , the reboot may well revisit the dangerous town of Sunnydale , California . That does present some challenge , consider how the original end as a farewell to Sunnydale and an energizing of every likely killer .
