United Kingdom, Aug. 12 -- Chase Sui Wonders had a lot of "fun" working on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot.

The 29-year-old actress has landed a mystery role on the upcoming series after befriending Sarah Michelle Gellar - who reprises her role as Buffy Summers - and she was thrilled to be part of the project.

She told Deadline: "Sarah Michelle Geller is just such a force to be reckoned with. We became fast friends on I Know What You Did last Summer. She's an incredible woman and just a cool person, and she asked me if I wanted to do it.

"Then she told me about Chloe Zhao directing and [Nora and Lilla Zuckerman] showrunning. And then Eric Kissack, who is actually our editor on The Studio, is also editing the Buffy series."
