The REAL Reason Sarah Michelle Gellar Was Called 'Difficult' On Buffy Set
20.01.2023 - 05:27 / perezhilton.com
The legacy of Buffy The Vampire Slayer has taken a serious hit in the past couple years. The smart, original, genre-bending girl power hour is a classic for a reason — but as its creator faces accusations of bullying and the creation of a toxic environment on set, it’s getting harder to look back with rose-colored glasses.
Joss Whedon isn’t the only one with a bad reputation from that set, though. Early on, word got out that star Sarah Michelle Gellar was “difficult.” But what was that really about?
SMG is opening up about the perception of her backstage persona in a new profile for The Hollywood Reporter. But THR also spoke to co-star and lifelong show biz pro Seth Green. And he not only had good things to say, he could explain how that whole bad reputation got started, too! The actor, who played werewolf Oz on the hit show, explained she was actually being a hero offscreen, too!
Damn! That defiance may have made her a thorn in the side of producers and directors looking to squeeze every penny out of a production day, but she was absolutely right. When cast and crew are overworked, that’s when vigilance drops and accidents happen.

But trying to make sure everything was professional and safe didn’t do her any favors, as Seth recalls:
Wow. She really was a hero. Too bad that couldn’t have gotten out! But Sarah says it was actually fine:
She explained:
As we’ve learned over the past few years, the #MeToo era, quite a few of the women who were labeled as “difficult” were really just sticking up for themselves, something certain higher-ups didn’t like — sometimes for really nefarious reasons. To learn she was sticking up for the entire crew?
