According to the LA Times, Buffy The Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon hinted that he would like to take the hit show from the small screen to the Great White Way.

The article quotes Whedon as saying: "I can't say that I will, or that by the time I try to, anyone would want me to, but yeah, I think she belongs there, in the theater across from ‘Dr. Horrible'."

Whedon also spoke a bit on a "Dr. Horrible" sequel, saying that songs have already been written.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is an American television series that aired from March 10, 1997, until May 20, 2003. The series was created in 1997 by writer-director Joss Whedon under his production tag, Mutant Enemy Productions with later co-executive producers being Jane Espenson, David Fury, David Greenwalt, Doug Petrie, Marti Noxon, and David Solomon. The series narrative follows Buffy Summers (played by Sarah Michelle Gellar), the latest in a line of young women known as "Vampire Slayers" or simply "Slayers". In the story, Slayers are "called" (chosen by fate) to battle against vampires, demons, and other forces of darkness. Like previous Slayers, Buffy is aided by a Watcher, who guides, teaches, and trains her. Unlike her predecessors, Buffy surrounds herself with a circle of loyal friends who become known as the "Scooby Gang".
