 Yeah, so she's the girl from the "Firestarter" reboot film. As I
 recall, she was not the problem with that film.
 
 She's apparently only 15 IRL, which creeps me out a little...

 
 As others have said it's likely she will be 17 or 18 by the time this
 is actually released.

 
 It will still have been filmed when she's 15 or 16, though.

 
 But Slayers are supposed to be that age when they get "the calling",
 so why
 would it be creepy for her to be that age or playing that age?

 
 'Cos I'm used to 28-year olds playing teenagers on TeeVee!!  ;p

 

 "Sarah Michelle Gellar was 19 when she first played the 16-year-old
 Buffy Summers."

 
 
MT was 15 when she played Dawn.

And Duckshoot was 17 when she premiered as Faith.
