Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) – Since Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Sarah Michelle Gellar has not exactly been in the public eye. Gellar’s post Buffy Movies include: Scooby-Doo 2, The Grudge, The Grudge 2 and a slew of movies that went straight to DVD and limited release, as well as an unsold HBO pilot called The Wonderful Maladys.

However, the movie scene was definitely not on her list of priorities. After meeting Freddy Prinze Jr. during  the filming  of the 1997 (Same year as Buffy started) teen horror flick, I Know What You Did Last Summer, they were married on September 1st, 2002 in Mexico and have been enjoying their married life ever since. In 2007, Gellar legally changed her name to Sarah Michelle Prinze in honor of the couple’s fifth marriage anniversary and two years later, on  September 19, 2009 she gave birth to the couple’s first child, a daughter named Charlotte Grace Prinze.

Sarah Michelle is also an active advocate for various charities, including breast cancer research, Project Angel Food, Habitat for Humanity and CARE, a leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty.

Fun Fact: Gellar has revealed that she suffers from a phobia of being buried alive, “I really fear graveyards and I have a big phobia of being buried alive. It was really hard being an ass-kicking vampire slayer when you are afraid of graves.”

Angel (David Boreanaz) – After Buffy The Vampire Slayer was over, Boreanaz still had a year left on his Buffy spin off, Angel, where he played the same lovable character only in Los Angeles and this time he was the hero. Much like Sarah Michelle Gellar, Buffy’s end was the beginning of straight to DVD and limited release movies with the exception of The Crow: Wicked Prayer which wasn’t really that great. Unlike Gellar however, Boreanaz made a huge come back when he was cast as special agent Seeley Booth alongside Emily Deschannel in the FOX drama, Bones. He is also a co-producer of the show and has even directed a few episodes.

After marrying actress and playmate Jaime Bergman in 2001, they had a son, Jaden Rayne, born May 1, 2002 and a daughter, Bardot Vita, born on August 31, 2009. On May4th, 2010, Boreanaz revealed to his wife as well as the media that he had been unfaithful, after a supposed mistress threatened to blackmail him for six figures. Bergman and Boreanaz stated that divorce is not an option and that they are working on their marriage.

Fun Fact: According to Amy Acker (Fred), David Boreanaz used to flash people on the set of Angel. “Yeah, I pull my trousers down in the middle of a serious take to see if they can keep a straight face. I need to lighten the moment, I guess.”

Xander Harris (Nicholas Brendon Schultz) – To continue the “there’s no life after Buffy curse”, Schultz made a few unknown movies like Unholy, Blood On The Highway, The Portal and My Neighbors Secret. Schultz also had some guest appearances on more known TV shows like Kitchen Confidential, Criminal Minds and Without a Trace. Much like his marriage to Tressa Di Figlia which ended in 2007, so did his acting career. On March 17th, 2010, the police responded to an early morning call in Los Angeles about an intoxicated individual roaming the streets. The officers had to taser him after he allegedly swung his fists at them and attempted to run away. Nicholas was arrested for felony vandalism and was held on $20,000 bail. He was later charged with four misdemeanors, including one count of resisting arrest, two counts of battery against a police officer and one count of vandalism.

After dealing with stuttering most of his life, Schultz became a spokesperson for the Stuttering Foundation of America, appearing in a print campaign for the organization as well as serving as an honorary chairperson of the Stuttering Foundation of America’s Stuttering Awareness Week for three consecutive years, from 2000 to 2003.

Fun Fact: Schultz has an identical twin brother, Kelly Donovan Schultz, who is older than him by three minutes.  Kelly served as his occasional stand-in on Buffy The Vampire Slayer when Nicholas was sick as well as during some fight scenes.

Willow Rosenberg (Alyson Hannigan) – For Alyson Hannigan, life after Buffy has been pretty sweet. She has made a ton of guest appearances in several popular TV shows like Angel, That 70′s Show, King of the Hill, Veronica Mars and The Goode Family. In 2005 she joined the cast of How I Met Your Mother and has been making people across America laugh ever since. Hannigan also starred in the 2006 romantic comedy spoof Date Movie as Julia Jones.

Aside from Buffy, Hannigan’s most popular role was probably playing Michelle Flaherty in the generational teen comedy movie series American Pie, American Pie 2 and American Wedding.

In 2003 Hannigan married her Buffy co-star Alexis Denisof who played Wesley Wyndam-Pryce (See below). Six years later on March 24th 2010 (Which is also Alyson’s birthday), Alyson gave birth to their first daughter, Satyana Marie Denisof. Satyana has bright orange hair just like her momma and has been seen taken out for strolls in L.A. parks. Watch out Hollywood.

Fun Fact: Alyson has had two songs recorded about her: “Alyson Hannigan” by Juvenile Wreck and “This One Time” (named for her famous “This one time, at band camp…” quotes from American Pie) by The Malcolm Effect.
