Gellar turned down Stardust role for love

Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar turned down a lead role in Stardust - because she didn't want to be apart from husband Freddie Prinze Jr.

The Buffy The Vampire Slayer star married Prinze Jr. in 2002 and the couple made a vow to avoid conflicting work schedules so they could spend more time together.

But the promise meant Gellar missed out on a part in the new fantasy adventure movie starring Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer - because the film was being shot in Scotland when Prinze Jr. was filming in the US.




She explained:, "I turned it down because it was Freddie's turn in New York. I would have loved to have done it - are you kidding? But it was Freddie's turn."

I saw this and was mad she didn't take the part. Oh well, she has like 4 movies ready to come out. Southland Tales, Addicted, The Air I Breathe, and Suburban Girl. Then Alice should be out in 2008.

Love her! One of my favorite actresses

awww! That's a really good thing to do. I think she cares a lot about her relationship more than money. I think they are very organized couple and I hope they will stay together forever.

**** her for turnin her back on buffy thats who she will ALWAYS be

^You are such a little bitch.

Got their priorities straight (of course there can be exceptions though when mutually agreed).

i love her 2 such a great actress... and this movie sounds pretty interesting 2 bad she turned it down...i'm still goign 2 watch it...it seems like a cool movie <3 <3 <3

I guess she made a wise decision. The movie was a HUGE flop at the box office.
