Overview
- Gellar shared a throwback Buffy clip on Oct. 11, writing that she "can’t imagine what 40 would have been like" but believed it "would be filled with love."
- The New York City Office of Chief Medical Examiner amended the cause of death on April 16 to complications of diabetes mellitus after reviewing toxicology results.
- Authorities initially listed the cause as undetermined following the family’s objection to an autopsy after Trachtenberg, 39, was found unresponsive on Feb. 26 in Manhattan.
- Gellar and Trachtenberg first met as teens on All My Children before portraying sisters on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, a bond Gellar has invoked in prior tributes.
- A Buffy revival is in development at Hulu with Gellar attached as executive producer and in a recurring role, with Chloé Zhao set to direct the pilot and questions remaining about how the series will acknowledge Trachtenberg.
