From Entertainment Weekly: It's been eight years since Buffy the
Vampire Slayer's Sarah Michelle Gellar bid adieu to the show that
made her an icon to focus on making movies. After giving birth to
her daughter in 2009, she began looking for a TV project that could
keep her in Los Angeles, where she makes her home with hsuband
freddie Prinze Jr. "At the same time," says Gellar, 34, "I was up
against this wall: What do you do after Buffy?" The answer isn't
short on ambition. On Ringer, Gellar plays twin sisters: Bridget, an
ex-stripper on the run from the Mob, and Siobhan, a high-society
snoot with a resentful husband (loan Gruffudd), a possessive lover (Kristoffer
Polaha), and many secrets. When Siobhan goes missing, Bridget tries
to escape her troubles by taking over her sister's identity.
Instead, both their lives become more complex. "It encompasses
everything I want, professionally and personally," says Gellar,
adding that she enjoys playing opposite herself quite a bit. "My
costar? Always knows her lines, always hits her marks, and never
gives me attitude. Genius! Every actor should try it." (The CW)

'Buffy' Alums Join ABC Pilots
Trachtenberg, Rocha sign on to comedies; Penn takes 'Call'
Former "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" regular Michelle Trachtenberg will
try out her comedy chops at ABC.
The Alphabet has added the actress to its untitled Washington-set
comedy, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Another "Buffy"
veteran, Kali Rocha, has meanwhile signed onto ABC's "The Call," as
has Kal Penn. The network has also added Adam Goldberg to its drama
"Marlowe."
Trachtenberg will star opposite Eric Christian Olsen ("The Loop") in
the D.C. comedy. She'll be playing the daughter of a lawmaker who
falls in love with Olsen's character, who just happens to work for
her dad's nemesis across the aisle.
Trachtenberg played Buffy's sister Dawn for three seasons on "Buffy
the Vampire Slayer." More recently she's starred in the movies
"Black Christmas" and "Beautiful Ohio" and made guest appearances on
"House" and "Law & Order: SVU."
In "The Call," a comedy about a group of L.A. paramedics, Penn will
play a hypochondriac member of the team, while Rocha will play the
group's boss. The show's cast also includes Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, John
Francis Daley and Danny Comden.
Penn appeared on several episodes of "24" this season; that show's
producers are also behind "The Call." Rocha, who had a recurring
part as the demon Halfrek on "Buffy," currently plays chipper
attending physician Sydney Heron on "Grey's Anatomy."
On the drama side, Goldberg will star opposite Jason O'Mara and
Amanda Righetti in "Marlowe," a contemporary take on the Raymond
Chandler private eye. He'll play an LAPD detective who occasionally
helps Marlowe (O'Mara).
Goldberg is currently on the big screen in "Zodiac." His other
credits include FOX's "Head Cases," "Deja Vu" and "Dazed &
Confused."

HBO Asks Pollack for 'Recount'
'Buffy,' 'Gilmore' actor Strong wrote script
April 2, 2007
Sydney Pollack
Sydney Pollack
As the 2008 presidential campaign ramps up, HBO is looking back at
the last time the United States replaced a two-term president.
The cable network has greenlit "Recount," which will dramatize the
events surrounding the hotly contested Florida recount in the 2000
election. Oscar-winning director Sydney Pollack ("Out of Africa,"
"The Interpreter") has signed on to direct the film, which was
written by "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Gilmore Girls" actor
Danny Strong.
Casting hasn't begun yet, but HBO is aiming for a spring 2008
airdate, the showbiz trade papers report.
The script is the first by Strong, who currently plays Paris' (Liza
Weil) boyfriend Doyle on "Gilmore Girls." He did extensive
interviews with people involved in the recount before writing the
script, which, both HBO Films chief Colin Callender and producer
Paula Weinstein ("Blood Diamond," HBO's "Truman") say, plays things
down the middle by focusing on the backstage drama of the recount.
"It's a fascinating look at democracy where the rubber meets the
road -- a look at the election process like we've never seen it
before," Callender tells The Hollywood Reporter.
Pollack won an Oscar for directing 1985's "Out of Africa," which
also earned best picture that year, and was nominated for "Tootsie"
a few years earlier. His other credits include "The Firm," "Three
Days of the Condor" and the documentary "Sketches of Frank Gehry."
