Sarah Michelle Gellar would only reprise her role as Buffy Summers for 'Sesame Street'.

The actress has moved on from her most iconic part as the lead character in TV series 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer', and would only play her again if it was for her two-year-old daughter, Charlotte's, favourite children's show.

Referring to furry red monster character Elmo, Sarah said: "I could share a scene with Elmo. I mean, I've worked with some great people – Andy Garcia, Forest Whitaker - but they're not Elmo."

Sarah, 34, added she would also agree to share the scene with another of the show's more fitting characters, Count von Count, who is modelled on a vampire.

She added: "Yep, okay. But that would be the only place I'd return as Buffy."

Sarah finished on 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' in 2003 when she was 26, and is glad it ended while she was still young because it means she has plenty of time to develop her career in other directions.

She added to The Sunday Times newspaper: "One of the beauties of being on 'Buffy' was it afforded me the chance to live other experiences.

"I'm lucky that I don't feel I have the pressure some actors do. I'm proud of what I've accomplished and I'm not chasing something. A lot of actors are."

Sarah now stars in new US TV show 'Ringers'.
