So, at what stage is the Buffy animated series at?

We have, I believe, five scripts already written. I’ve done one, Jane Espenson has done a couple and it’s a great experience. When I was first brought in to interview, I was brought in to interview for the animated show and I was shown rough sketches of the characters and some of the sets. I loved what I saw, I was dying to work on the show and I was hoping once I was hired on the live action [show], I would still get a chance to work on it.

It’s going to be an amazing show. It’s funny, it’s exciting, it’s all the huge gigantic action that we can’t do in a live action show - so the sky’s the limit. There’s a lot of ideas that they’ve had in the past five seasons that were great ideas but they just couldn’t do, budget-wise.

So we get to do all those cool, high school stories that we couldn’t tell back in High School. Plus, it’s a return to the classic Buffy, the way it all started, with all the teenagers and high jinks. It’s going to be absolutely amazing.
