Buffy star Sarah Michelle Gellar, who was friends with the late Shannen Doherty for 30 years, has said she would be up for stepping in for the late star in a new sequel to Mallrats. Doherty, also famous for her roles in Charmed and Beverly Hills 90210, died of breast cancer in July after being diagnosed with the disease in 2015.

Sarah Michelle Gellar is happy to honor her late friend Shannen Doherty however she can – which may include stepping into a role that Doherty originated in the 1995 cult classic “Mallrats.”

The 1995 buddy comedy Mallrats has gone on to achieve cult status among fans for its unconventional way of approaching comedy. As such, admirers of the entertainment classic have been gunning for a sequel ever since.
