I asked Meta AI to cast for a new version of Buffy.


The first answer was a diverse cast of boring and dullness. So I then did the unthinkable and asked for a cast of all white actors and it was just as bad. Kit Harrington as Angel?!

Buffy Summers (The Vampire Slayer)
Played by: Millicent Simmonds (known for A Quiet Place, Wonderstruck)
Millicent brings a youthful energy and determination to the iconic role.
Rupert Giles (Buffy's Watcher)
Played by: Richard Ayoade (known for The IT Crowd, Travel Man)
Richard's dry wit and fatherly charm make him perfect for the mentor role.
Xander Harris (Buffy's best friend)
Played by: Timothée Chalamet (known for Call Me By Your Name, Dune)
Timothée's charisma and comedic timing bring Xander's humor and heart to life.
Willow Rosenberg (Buffy's friend and witch)
Played by: Zendaya (known for Euphoria, Spider-Man: Homecoming)
Zendaya's versatility and emotional depth make her an excellent fit for the gentle yet powerful Willow.
Cordelia Chase (Popular cheerleader and ally)
Played by: Chloe Bailey (known for Grown-ish, The Fighting Temptations)
Chloe's confidence and charm bring Cordy's sass and loyalty to the forefront.
Angel (The vampire with a soul)
Played by: Harry Styles (known for Dunkirk, Don't Worry Darling)
Harry's brooding intensity and androgynous charm make him a compelling Angel.
Spike (The punk rock vampire)
Played by: Ashton Sanders (known for Moonlight, Native Son)
Ashton's edgy charisma and complexity bring Spike's tumultuous personality to life.
Oz (The werewolf and musician)
Played by: Ross Butler (known for Riverdale, 13 Reasons Why)
Ross's laid-back charm and musical talent make him a great fit for Oz's cool and creative vibe.
Tara Maclay (Willow's girlfriend and powerful witch)
Played by: Storm Reid (known for When They See Us, A Wrinkle in Time)
Storm's gentle strength and emotional depth bring Tara's kindness and magic to the forefront.
Anya Jenkins (The former vengeance demon)
Played by: Hannah John-Kamen (known for Ant-Man and the Wasp, Ready Player One)
Hannah's sharp wit and sassiness make her a great fit for Anya's blunt humor and complex personality.
Andrew Wells (The former villain and ally)
Played by: Cole Sprouse (known for Riverdale, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody)
Cole's dry wit and awkward charm bring Andrew's quirky personality to life.

This cast brings a fresh and diverse perspective to the beloved characters while maintaining the original dynamic and chemistry.

What a terrible and boring diverse cast of dullness.

I'm sorry to hear you didn't like the suggested cast. Casting is a highly subjective process, and opinions on who should play a character can vary greatly. If you have a different vision for a Buffy the Vampire Slayer cast, I'd be happy to hear it! Which actors would you choose for each role, and why? I'm here to listen and discuss.

I think you should ask the AI for a cast with limitations such as them being tv actors and being actors in their 20s and see what it proposes

reply

Yeah like late teens try to make it think more. I don’t have a lot of faith in AI really.

reply

The industry wouldn't cast a bunch of teenagers anyway. They want people with some maturity and acting chops. That's why 20-somethings always play teenagers.

reply

Millicent Simmonds? I can't imagine her being Buffy.

Sophie Turner is 28, too old for the role.

AI clearly needs more work.

reply

Yeah it seems like AI just randomly chose mainstream popular actors rather than put any thought into it.
