Buffy fans rejoice, the original vampire slayer is back! Sarah Michelle Gellar will star in the new CW show, Ringer.

The new drama series is one of the most buzzed-about shows of the CW’s new season.

Synopsis:

Bridget, played by Sarah Michelle Gellar, is six months sober and starting to get her life back on track when she becomes the only witness to a professional hit. Knowing her life is danger, Bridget flees to New York where she reunites with her estranged twin, Siobhan. Her twin is very well-off and married to the successful and handsome Andrew Martin. Siobhan appears to live a perfect life, but in this perfect life no one knows of Siobhan’s unsuccessful AA attendee sister, Bridget.

The sisters begin to piece together their broken relationship until one day Siobhan goes missing. Bridget sees her opportunity to start over and live the wondrous life her sister had left, and decides to take over her sister’s identity. What Bridget doesn’t know is that her sister lived an even more complicated and shocking life. She discovers secrets about her sister and her marriage and also about Siobhan’s friend, Gemma, and her husband, Henry. Bridget soon realizes she isn’t safe being herself or her sister.

Gellar spoke with Entertainment Weekly about her absence from television since Buffy, and her return; ”I have the greatest fans in the world, and I loved my show. I think sometimes, too, you need that time to understand that it was a cultural phenomenon, a legacy,” she said. “I want to honor those people who were so good to me and show them something worthy of their time and worthy of them. I think it was worth the wait.”

The series stars Sarah Michelle Gellar as Bridget and Siobhan, Kristoffer Polaha as Henry, Ioan Gruffudd as Andrew Martin, and Tara Summers as Gemma.

The show will air on the CW on Tuesdays at 9 PM as part of the network’s new Fall lineup.
