Bio
At 5’2” and little more than a hundred pounds, Sarah Michelle Gellar may not seem like a cold-blooded vampire slayer—and she’s not. That was just a character she played. In real life she actually rarely slays anyone. It's more of a thumping sound as the bodies stack up, when her acting gets going. Where once her cute youth and absurd low-key dialogue were able to mask the truth, now she's managed wear her age like a grandfather clock around the neck.
Born and raised on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, Sarah was discovered at the age of 4 by an agent in an uptown restaurant. Two weeks later, she auditioned and won the part in a TV movie starring Jeff Daniels (that’s right, Jeff frickin’ Daniels!). Not long after that, she appeared in a controversial Burger King commercial, in which her character criticized McDonald’s—which led to a lawsuit, appearances in court, and vaguely menacing threats from the Hamburglar.
As a teenager, Sarah picked up work on the unapologetically gay-sounding Swans Crossing and as Susan Lucci’s long-lost daughter on All My Children. She even scored a Daytime Emmy for the latter—which was around the time her relationship began to strain with Lucci (gee, we wonder why…).
In 1997, at the age of 20, Sarah landed the title role in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which would eat up the better part of seven years and earn her the sort of international fame that Kristy Swanson could only dream about. During her time away from the show, Sarah filmed movies like Cruel Intentions (in which she shared a lesbian kiss with costar Selma Blair), Simply Irresistible, Harvard Man, Scooby-Doo and I Know What You Did Last Summer. It was on that last one that she met her future husband, Freddie “He’s All That” Prinze Jr. Since Buffy closed shop in 2003, Sarah has done movies like The Grudge, for which she was reportedly paid $6 million (answering the question, “Why would Sarah Michelle Gellar do The Grudge?”).
Since then she has made appearances in several films including Southland Tales, Suburban Girl and Possession. And she’ll play Alice in Alice, derived from the video game American McGee’s Alice. If all goes well, look for her to star in the video game based on the movie based on the video game.
