Sarah
Michelle Gellar (SMG)
Sarah
Michelle Gellar began acting by making a television commercial for Burger
King at the age of four. She was sued by Macdonalds for that advert, because
in the ad she teased Mcdonalds about its less substantial burgers.
Marcia Shulman, who was the
casting director for the first two seasons of Buffy had a good idea
of the sort of actress they wanted to play Buffy. Then Sarah came along,
and her amazing acting ability won her the role, even though ideas about
the character had to be altered slightly to suit her. Sarah originally
auditioned to be Cordelia, and Charisma auditioned for Buffy. If things
were the other way around, would that be weird or what?
SMG
has appeared in many adverts on TV, and has also appeared in Swan's
Crossing and All My Children, a role as Kendall Hart which won
her an Emmy. Film credits include Funny Farm, the excellent I
Know What You Did Last Summer (Character name: Helen Shivers) and more
recently, Scream 2 (Character name: Casey Cooper(Cici)). She is
also a star in the new teen flick Cruel Intentions, an update on
thriller Dangerous Liaisons, and a romantic comedy out soon called
Simply Irresistable.
