Melanie Lynskey may be up for two 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Emmys at this year's ceremony, but she wasn't always so keen to𝔉 take on small-screen roles – in a new interview, the actor revealed that she turned down the role of Willow Rosenberg in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

"It was kind of a visa issue, but not really," she told writer Evan Ross Katz for his Substack newsletter, . "I also was not sure about doing television at that time. It was very early in my career. I had a very old-school agent who was like, 'TV? That's for has-beens!' and I was like, 'I don't think it is anymore.' Certainly now things𓆏 have really changed, but I just wasn't super into it at the time."

She☂ added: "Alyson Hannigan got it, who was absolutely ꦏwonderful and all was [cast] as it should have been."

Willow is one of Buffy Summer (Sarah Michelle Gellar)'s best friends and o🌼ne-third of𝔉 the so-called 'Scooby Gang', who goes on to become a powerful witch. She appeared in all seven of the show's seasons between 1997 and 2003. In later seasons, Willow falls in love with Tara (Amber Benson) and was one of the few queer female characters in mainstream TV shows at the time. 

Lynksey has no shortage of TV roles under her belt now, most notably Yellowjackets, in which she plays plane crash survivor Shauna, a role that's seen her nominated for two Emmys and win a Critics Choice Award. She also had an Emmy-nominated guest role in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us and ꦿstarred alongside Jessica Biel in the Hulu series Candy. 🍎;
