Actor's Bios

Buffy's Cast-

Sarah (Buffy) Birthdate: April 14, 1977 Birthplace: New York City Height:5'3" Eyes/Hair: Green/naturally dark brown Dating status: Married actor Freddie Prinze, Jr.

Only this buff babe could make chowing down look good. Sarah Michelle Gellar was discovered by an agent, at the ripe old age of four, while eating with her mom in a restaurant in her hometown of New York. Sarah Michelle Gellar's first job was a commercial for Burger King. The gig got Sarah Michelle Gellar more than her first acting paycheck - it got her sued. Sarah Michelle Gellar was named in a suit McDonald's filed against their rival burger joint because she said McD's burgers were "smaller" than Burger King's.

But Sarah Michelle Gellar didn't let a little lawsuit stop her career. She went on to star as Kendall on the soap opera All My Children. At just 17, Sarah Michelle Gellar won an Emmy for her role. Over the years Sarah Michelle Gellar has collected a few tattoos - a Celtic symbol on her left hip, a Chinese symbol for integrity on the small of her back and a heart with a dagger hanging over it on the inside of her right ankle.

But body art isn't Sarah Michelle Gellar's only interests; the 5'3 actress is a powerhouse who practices kickboxing, boxing, gymnastics and Tae Kwon Do (she has a brown belt). This made her the perfect candidate for a role on Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Sarah Michelle Gellar originally auditioned for Cordelia, but the producers knew the perfect slayer when they saw her and cast her in the lead instead.

Sarah Michelle Gellar's not just about slaying vamps (or kissing them) either. She's done a ton of cool flicks too like I Know What You Did Last Summer (with now-husband Freddie Prinze Jr.,) Cruel Intentions and Scooby-Doo and Scooby-Doo 2.

Facts-

Sarah Michelle Gellar has two dogs Tyson and Thor.

Sarah Michelle Gellar is married to Freddie Prinze Jr.

At the age of four, while Alyson Hannigan still lived in Atlanta, she started acting in commercials for companies like McDonald's and products like Oreo Cookies. When she was 11 she moved to Los Angeles with her mom so she could score even more acting opportunities.

In 1988, Alyson Hannigan snagged her first big role in the movie My Stepmother Is an Alien, she was 13. The movie also starred her future werewolf boyfriend, Seth Green. Before Alyson and Seth Green would meet again, on Buffy, Alyson Hannigan would also guest star on TV show like Roseanne, Picket Fences and Touched By An Angel.

1997, Alyson Hannigan got her biggest break yet. Joss Whedon was looking for an actress to play Willow Rosenberg on his new show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and decided on Alyson Hannigan. Willow Rosenburg, Buffy's originally geeky, awkward computer hacking buddy, was on the show the entire seven years it ran. By season seven, Hannigan's character of Willow had gone from a super-geek to a super-wicca who tried to end the world one year, and saved it the next.

Facts-

Alyson Hannigan is engaged to actor Alexis Denisof, who plays Wesley Wyndam-Pryce on Angel (and formerly Buffy.)

His uncle, a casting director, had the connections to get Seth Green parts in TV productions along with numerous commercials by the time he was six years old. In 1984, Seth Green got a taste of things to come when he appeared in his first film, The Hotel New Hampshire.

Seth Green caught his big break when he landed the role of Daniel "Oz" Osbourne on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. OZ was most known for his dry sense of humor and his complete lack of emotion. No matter what demon the Scooby Gang faced, or what threat of world destruction, Oz remained cool and aloof. When Oz was written out of Buffy, Seth Green fans were worried they wouldn't see him again. Boy, were they wrong!

Seth Green jumped right into a successful film career after Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Some of Seth Green's most memorable film appearances include Kenny in Can't Hardly Wait costarring Jennifer Love Hewitt and a cheesy boyband member in the 2001 flick, Josie and the Pussycats.
