Could It Be?! Sarah Michelle Gellar Set For ‘Cruel Intentions’ Spin-Off

Its been announced, that Sarah Michelle Gellar is to return to our screens in a new TV version of hit 90s film, Cruel Intentions.

Geller broke the news via a post on her Instagram where she said:

This picture was taken on the eve of production on the original Cruel Intentions. It’s me, Roger Kumble (director) and Neal Moritz (exec producer) and the other is a picture of us now on the eve of production on the new Cruel Intentions.”

She continued by adding one of the most iconic quotes from her character,

That’s right “everybody loves me, and I intend to keep it that way.”

In the film, Gellar played Kathryn Merteuil, the “queen of mean” who would do anything to succeed.

Kathryn also gave us one of hottest lesbian kisses of the late nineties and helped to turn it into a cult classic.

Rumours of Sarah coming back to the role started last year when she reunited with other original cast members Reese Witherspoon and Selma Blair.

Several spinoff films have been made since the original, but the show plans to pick up about 15 years after the first.

Producers have said the initial episodes will see Kathryn trying to take control of the family business, Valmont International, and fight to win the affections of the son of her late brother, Bash Casey.

The series will be the star’s return to a regular series since she played Robin Williams’ daughter in The Crazy Ones.

Reese Witherspoon Slates Actors Who Won’t Play Gay Characters

Reese Witherspoon thinks actors who refuse to play gay roles need to “lighten up”.

During an interview with PrideSource, the actress – who is currently promoting in Hot Pursuit – insists it is the job of actors to “transform” and be “malleable” and become many different characters.

I think gay people are able to play straight roles; straight people are able to play gay roles. The whole point of being an actor is to transform. If people don’t understand that we need to be malleable in our sexuality, then I think they need to lighten up.”

In her new movie she shares an intimate embrace and even a kiss with Sofia Vergara.

She added:

I have a ton of lesbian friends, and I think any kind of women who relates to us or enjoys the movie – that’s awesome! The whole movie is: It doesn’t matter where you’re from, what your sexual orientation is, what you do for a living, what your ethnicity is – women are women, and we all have a lot in common. It’s liberating because it’s not all about our characters’ romantic lives or that we’re chasing men – it’s that we’re running for our lives and we have to figure out a way to get along so that we survive.”

Witherspoon shared a girl-on-girl smooch with Brittany Murphy in 1996’s Freeway.
