Slayers: A Buffyverse Story releases on Audible on October 12th.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans can return to that universe in Slayers: A Buffyverse Story, a new Audible Original that brings back many of the original show's stars. Amber Benson and Christopher Golden co-wrote the nine-episode series. Benson is best known to Buffy fans for playing Tara Maclay and reprises that role in Slayers, but she and Golden have both written Buffyverse stories previously.
Amber Benson: For me, the biggest reason to do Slayers with Chris was to see Cordelia the Vampire Slayer come to life. I worked with Charisma on a film a few years ago, and we had this scene. She and I had never worked together before, but we were in this scene playing this very emotional moment, and it was transcendent, and I was like,"Oh my God, she's so good. I really want to see her be a vampire slayer." I think the seeds of that were sown during that scene.
CG: Well, the interesting thing about that, Amber, to me, is that this version of Cordelia is more like Charisma than the original version of Cordelia for sure. It has more of her in it, I think. Amber, you're also performing in the podcast. Given that you're also writing, were there things in your mind that you would've liked to do with Tara that past Buffyverse stories didn't allow? Was this an opportunity to say,"Oh, I can do those things now and play that there."
AB: Yeah. We didn't want to pull the rug out from under anybody. That's not interesting to either of us. I don't want to make anybody feel like,"I got you," which I think a lot of times happens, creators are like,"Oh, I want to rile everybody up." We didn't want to rile anybody up. We just wanted everyone to have a good experience.
You mentioned Indira, a fun new character, and from talking to you, it seems plain that the fans who love these characters are very much at the forefront of your mind. So, I'm wondering, given that Indira is that Ms. Marvel fangirl type, how much is she a reflection of your own experience with fans? Or did you try not to take that specific approach as you developed that character?
