Sarah's Slaying 'Em!

........More than 80 Internet websites can't be wrong.... Sarah Michelle Gellar of TV's Buffy the Vampire Slayer is one of the few television heroines for the 1990s who can kick serious butt. Originally pencilled for the role of Cordelia in the series, 21 year old Sarah gave such a brilliant audition the show's producers knew they had found their "Chosen One."
........Sarah is one of the growing number of young television stars making a move on the big screen - starting last year with a supporting role in I Know What You Did Last Summer. Sarah is now filming Cruel Intentions, a fresh look at the period film Dangerous Liaisons which starred Michelle Pfeiffer & John Malkovich. Once that wraps, the busy actress goes straight into filming a new romantic comedy, Simply Irresistible. Sarah turned down another six movie roles to take the part of a young woman who inherits a restaurant and finds love with a busy executive.
