With Sarah Michelle Gellar out and about promoting her new CBS comedy with Robin Williams, “The Crazy Ones,” of course the topic of a possible new Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie came up. Could it be the next big Kickstarter campaign we see?

E! Online recently posed the following question to Gellar: If “Veronica Mars” can raise more than $5 million for a movie, why can’t “Buffy” do it?

“Joss and I always talk about [a movie],” Gellar told the site, “but the thing with Buffy is that Buffy was a movie, and it ultimately didn’t work as a film… we had such miles to overcome when we were trying to do a TV show based on a movie. And one of the reasons is that the story works better over time.”

Talking about her “advanced” age (she’s only 36), Gellar joked, “At this point, the stake would be my walker and I would be hobbling in.”

But, giving fans a tiny sliver of hope, she added, “If there was ever the right story, we would do it.”
