Fox wants a Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot to happen, but only if Joss Whedon says yes

Variety

Calling Buffy the "most ripe show" Fox has for a reboot, Fox TV group chair Gary Newman said at INTV conference in Jerusalem: “It’s something we talk about frequently, and Joss Whedon is really one of the greatest creators we ever worked with. When Joss decides it’s time, we’ll do it. And until Joss decides it’s time, it won’t happen.” ALSO: Newman admits he probably “wouldn’t get out of the building alive” if he rebooted Buffy. ALSO: Whedon said last year he worries about TV reboots, but won't rule out a Buffy revival.
