Warner Bros. has obtained the rights to remake Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the 1992 movie that inspired the cult TV series of the same title.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Joss Whedon, who wrote the screenplay for the original movie and created the TV series, will not be involved in the remake written by actress turned screenwriter Whit Anderson.
In a statement, producer Charles Roven said of the remake, "While this is not your high school Buffy, she'll be just as witty, tough, and sexy as we all remember her to be."
A cast for the remake has not yet been announced.
The 1992 original starred Kristy Swanson as vampire-hunting high school cheerleader Buffy Summers and Beverly Hills, 90210 star Luke Perry.
In the TV series, Buffy was played by Sarah Michelle Gellar.
