Gellar getting Romantic
Sarah Michelle Gellar is in negotiations to star in MGM's imaginatively titled Romantic Comedy for director Joel Gallen.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Gellar is lined up to play Kate, a translator at the United Nations, who remains blissfully unaware her best friend of 15 years, Max, fancies her rotten. That is, until he starts to imitate the best tricks of romantic comedy movies past to declare his love and sweep her off her feet.
Production is due to begin in August after Gellar wraps production on the sequel to Scooby-Doo, which sees Gellar reprise her role of Daphne Blake.
This latest development adds further fuel to the speculation that Sarah will not be returning for season eight of Buffy.
