rogueslayer452 | Slayer. Comma. The.

Slayers: A Buffyverse Story is going to be an upcoming original audio drama with some members of the BTVS cast reprising their roles, and Amber Benson is not only reprising her role as Tara but is also credited to be of the main writers and directors of this audio project. And good news: Joss Whedon is not involved with this whatsoever, thank goodness.

Based on the description alone, it sounds absolutely intriguing with how different and fresh the concept is. Having this "where are they now" concept but with the added layers of "The Wish" and "Doppelgangland" mixed in. No wonder Charisma Carpenter seemed very excited about this project, since she is portraying Cordelia Chase from an alternate universe where she is the one and only Slayer, and it'll be interesting to see this AU!Cordy and how different she is, what experiences she has undergone, the same with the other characters and what they've been up to. And we have a new Slayer, one of the Potentials-turned-Slayer post-series finale I'm assuming, who I'm curious to meet. And with the added bonus relief that there will be no Whedon interference, it makes me very intrigued by this story.

The audio drama will be released on October 12th, a perfect Halloween treat.
