Things are now a lot different for the actress behind-the-scenes too. 

As the lead on Buffy, Gellar advocated for her fellow cast members and tried to protect them from unsafe conditions on set. However, the producers didn’t take too kindly to that as numerous co-stars reported just recently. This time around though, Gellar’s leadership skills have been recognized with a key executive producer role, which she used to help ensure the safety of younger cast members while filming.        

“There’s something to be said for having an executive producer that is on set every day, who really knows everything that’s happening and can say, ‘Guys, if we’ve been working too long, the shot isn’t important. We’ll make a plate shot and we’ll do it later.’ Or the crew’s getting tired, like ‘Let’s move on.” 

Wolf Pack co-star Rodrigo Santoro agrees, praising how “she took care” of the actors while filming. “It was very, very nice and important to have her on set just to be able to talk to. [Sarah] was very hands-on, doing both things.”

This hands-on approach has also extended to work on the post-production side of Wolf Pack. “That’s something I haven’t had as much experience with in genre,” says Gellar, but it’s “been really fun” to get involved with “the marketing aspect of it, the trailers, getting to edit all of those sides of it.”

As you’d expect, Gellar’s character has rightly stood at the forefront of Wolf Pack’s marketing. And we reckon it won’t be long before Kristin Ramsey ends up in the pantheon of roles that fans have grown to love her for. Just don’t ask Gellar to choose a favorite: “That’s like asking which is my favorite child.”
