flixster.actor.pane.162667558 - flixsterSarah Michelle Gellar is an American actress perhaps best known for having played the title role of Buffy Anne Summers in the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

She was discovered while eating in a restaurant at the age of 4. Gellar's major break came in 1992, when she starred in the teen soap opera Swan's Crossing and was subsequently cast in another soap opera, All My Children, playing the conniving character Kendall Hart, the long-lost daughter of character Erica Kane (Susan Lucci).

In 1995, at the age of eighteen, she won a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Younger Leading Actress in a Drama Series for the role. Gellar has starred in horror films such as The Grudge (2004) and I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), in family films such as Scooby-Doo (2002), and in independent films such as Harvard Man (2001).

Sarah appeared in the sequel The Grudge 2, which opened in October 2006; in the film, she has a minor role reprising her character from the first film. Sarah next appeared in the thriller The Return, which was released the following month. Sarah played a businesswoman haunted by memories of her childhood and the mysterious death of a young woman. The movie was marketed as a horror movie and many including critics were surprised to find The Return was as Rafe Telsch said "is just a murder mystery with a few supernatural elements". The movie pulled in a disappointing $4,800,000 weekend gross with little promotion. She then lent her voice to the animated film Hapily N'Ever After. She followed those with a string of films including Southland Tales, The Air I Brreathe, Suburban Girl

The film Possession , starring Sarah, has had a range of release dates - starting with February 2008. The film was finally set to be released in theatres in January of 2009, but due to financial problems at YARI Film Group, the release was yet again pushed forward. In March 2009 it was announced that the film would skip theatrical release altogether, and go straight to DVD/Blu-Ray. It is now set to be thus released on May 12, 2009.
Sarah will also star in Veronika decides to Die . The film tells the story of a young woman suffering from severe depression who rediscovers the joy in life when she finds out that she only has days to live following a suicide attempt. Filming of the movie began on May 12, 2008, in New York City. and finished in late June.

It was reported by People Magazine that Sarah and husband Freddie Prinze, Jr. are expecting their first child which is due in Fall 2009.

    Sarah- When will you have a few pictures of yourself in a bikini so that I can see the tattoos that you have on yourself? IM very much a great fan of yours and wished that you can email me and get to know one another one day that you have the time to do this for me? Well, I am sure that when you have the time to that you won't let me down and not email me at bobby_curtiss@yahoo.com and I enjoy all of your movies and your pictures in your profile that you have. I have been in a car accident in 1982 that put me in a wheelchair for the rest of my life and it has never stopped me from doing the things that I like to do because life is to short to miss out the things that is important that you wish to do. Do you ever have times when you feel like you just want to get away from everything else and go and do something that you have not did in a long time to just stop everything else to enjoy your own life for a change of atmosphere around yourself? Well, have a nice day gorgeous.
    Thanks
    Bob
