Where Are They Now? The Cast of ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’
“Buffy the Vampire Slayer” was created by Joss Whedon over 20 years ago, but its upcoming revival series is tempting fans to revisit the world of Sunnydale High.
Although the new series won’t be a reboot of the old characters, it will hopefully have the same wit and heart that made the original series a one of a kind success.
Nicholas Brendon Then
Nicholas Brendon landed the role of Xander just three months after signing with his agent when he started acting professionally. His character is memorable for not having any super powers and being one of the human members of the Scooby gang.
His twin brother, Kelly, was hired as his stand-in during the run of the show and even appeared in the background of some episodes as Xander.
Nicholas Brendon Now
Since the end of the “Buffy” series, Brendon has had a few major run-ins with the law. He has been arrested a handful of times for crimes such as vandalism, assault and battery.
In 2015, he appeared on the “Dr. Phil Show” to discuss his recent behavior and walked off set in the middle of the interview.
Anthony Stewart Head Then
English actor Anthony Head was already a well established actor by the time “Buffy” began in 1997. He was also an established musician and when he played the role of Frank N.
Furter in “The Rocky Horror Show” in London in 1990, his rendition of “Sweet Transvestite” was released as a single on vinyl.
Anthony Stewart Head Now
Anthony Head has worked steadily since the end of the series, with appearances on shows like “Drunk History,” Shonda Rhimes’ “Still Star-Crossed” and Syfy’s “Dominion.” In 2017, he wasn’t part of the cast’s reunion for Entertainment Weekly, but not for lack of trying!
He was already booked on the set of another project.
