Titolo: Buffy cast: cosa fanno i nostri?

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/cult/a137550/buffy-where-are-they-now.html
Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy)
The blonde bombshell's desire to move on to pastures new was often cited as
the reason for Buffy ending, but Gellar didn't initially stray too far from
the show's supernatural leanings. 2004 horror film The Grudge, in which
Gellar played the lead, was a major box office smash to go along with the
commercial success of her two spooky Scooby-Doo flicks.
Since then though, Gellar has been the box office equivalent of a Buffy Big
Bad. Not even playing a pornstar in Southland Tales - director Richard
Kelly's hugely anticipated Donnie Darko follow-up - could lure in the
punters. Other flops followed in the shape of The Air I Breathe and
Suburban Girl, so it wasn't much of a surprise to hear that she's planning
a small screen retreat in HBO's The Wonder Maladys, a drama that deals with
parental loss, in 2009.
In need of Buffy movie career boost?: Probably
David Boreanaz (Angel)
There was still a year left of LA-based spinoff show Angel to run after
Buffy concluded in 2003, and it looked like Boreanaz couldn't avoid juicy
steaks as well as he dodged wooden stakes - for the pounds piled on. He
soon regained his old trim physique and won the lead as FBI Agent Seeley
Booth in forensic television drama Bones.
The show, which attracts sizeable audience numbers stateside, is currently
in its fourth season. Less impressive is Boreanaz's film career. He's made
several cinematic entities post-Buffy, but how many can you name? Exactly.
In need of Buffy movie career boost?: Not really
Alyson Hannigan (Willow)
Hannigan perhaps used one of Willow's spells to ensure she became a staple
of hit American teen flicks shortly after Buffy ended, with key parts in
the American Pie trilogy and Date Movie. A recurring part in Veronica Mars,
which shared many traits with a certain Sunnydale-based show, kept her fans
happy. However, a starring role in CBS comedy How I Met Your Mother has
propelled her into the limelight again. Now in its fourth season and
bolstered by a couple of Britney Spears cameos, the programme attracts an
impressive 10 million viewers.
In need of Buffy movie career boost?: Not right now
Nicholas Brendon (Xander)
With his disarming smile and comic timing, it's a surprise that Brendon has
failed so spectacularly to capitalise on his Buffy success. A vehicle
entitled Kitchen Confidential lasted only four episodes before getting the
chop, while battles with the bottle didn't help his career prospects.
A couple of very obscure movies have helped things to tick along, plus a
guest appearance last year in mainstream TV show Criminal Minds did at
least jog the memory of a few viewers as to his existence on the planet.
In need of Buffy movie career boost?: Yes, yes, yes
Anthony Head (Giles)
The housewives' favourite has swapped the libraries and magic shops of
Sunnydale for a range of BBC projects that have certainly raised his
mainstream profile in the United Kingdom and finally laid to rest the 'Gold
Blend ad man' stigma. Currently playing the callous yet occasionally
compassionate King Uther Pendragon in Merlin, the legend turned a few heads
with his recurring roles as the poor Prime Minister in Little Britain.
Head also fronted drama The Invisibles and excellently portrayed
shapeshifting Krillitane Mr. Finch in the Doctor Who episode 'School
Reunion'. However, his big screen ambitions took a hit when scheduling
issues forced Tim Burton to massively cut down his role in Sweeney Todd,
while the curiously titled Repo! The Genetic Opera has struggled to secure
decent distribution - despite the on-screen pairing of Head and Paris
Hilton!
In need of Buffy movie career boost? Nope
Michelle Trachtenberg (Dawn)
The cute actress starred in gross-out teen 'comedy' Eurotrip in 2004,
trading the innocence of Buffy's younger sister for a far more sexualised
part. Since then, she's predominantly focused on television roles that are
similarly detached from the good-natured Dawn.
Most notably, she played a popstar brat in several episodes of the
acclaimed Six Feet Under and a nasty cow in Gossip Girl. This partially
makes up for her appearance in the catastrophic movie remake of Black
Christmas, although hopes are still high for a big screen career as she
stars alongside Zac Efron in upcoming flick 17 Again.
In need of Buffy movie career boost? Definitely maybe
James Marsters (Spike)
Since sparing his follicles from more peroxide, Marsters has used his
charisma (not Carpenter!) in two key cult roles that strongly echo the
detestable but loveable ambiguity of Spike. First up was the part of baddie
Brainiac in Smallville, followed by Captain John in Torchwood.
Despite his advancing years (which doesn't bode well for playing a
non-aging vampire), Marsters still has the old swagger. He also played a
supporting role in the movie P.S. I Love You, regularly tours with his band
and can next be seen as the baddie, under heavy make-up, in the film
Dragonball.
In need of Buffy movie career boost? A little push would help
Eliza Dushku (Faith)
Randy rogue slayer Faith was one character screaming out for an Angel-style
spinoff, but instead Dushku graduated to short-lived series Tru Calling - a
tenuously named show about a morgue worker called Tru speaking to dead
people. A similarly morbid project was 2003 horror film Wrong Turn - a
moderate commercial success bolstered by Dushku donning a tight, white vest
in tru Bruce Willis style.
A string of lesser profile projects followed, including stage roles and
video game appearances. However, her career received a massive boost when
Buffy creator Joss Whedon snapped her up as the lead in his new (and much
delayed) Dollhouse series.
In need of Buffy movie career boost? The answer lies in the Dollhouse
Emma Caulfield (Anya)
Okay, so events in the Buffy finale might not bode well for her return, but
stranger things have happened on the show. Unlike several of her co-stars,
Caulfield managed to steer clear of roles in other cult shows - although
this did involve staking herself in the foot when she turned down offers to
audition for the roles of Starbuck and Number Six in the superb Battlestar
Galactica.
She's since admitted her frankly fracking crazy decision. Still, she did
star in horror film Darkness Falls, which did soar to the heights of first
place on the US box office.
In need of Buffy movie career boost? Yes, but not as much as her former
on-screen boyfriend

 superb Battlestar Galactica.
Chissa' se ora si mangia le mani per non aver neppure tentato:D
Anche se sono due ruoli in cui non ce la vedo. Number Six no di certo, 
forse aveva piu' chance con Starbuck.
