Amber Benson guest stars on Supernatural

Fans of BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, ANGEL and FIREFLY creator Joss Whedon know Amber Benson as Tara, Willow’s girlfriend, from BUFFY. Since her character’s dramatic departure from the series, Benson has been a busy young lady. During her time on the show, she wrote, produced and directed CHANCE — an independent film about relationships in L.A. Now, Benson is the co-creator and writer of the book series GHOST OF ALBION with Stoker Award winning author Christopher Golden, based on the continuing adventures of characters from their BBC Web episodes. Benson also has two interesting projects being released this year, her second feature film LOVERS, LIARS, AND LUNATICS and a guest appearance on the CW network’s SUPERNATURAL, which is now heading into its second season. iF caught Benson fresh off of the Vancouver SUPERNATURAL set and talked to her about what we can expect from her on the series, and what else is up next.

iF MAGAZINE:   Are you just a one-time role on SUPERNATURAL or is this a character that may come back?
AMBER BENSON: As of now, it's just a one-time role. It’s a very juicy guest spot.
iF: How has it been returning to a TV show primarily about the occult?
 BENSON:  Its cool to be back in the sci-fi realm. Everyone at SUPERNATURAL is lovely. I've had a real blast working in Vancouver. Thought I was through with CGI, but visual effects seem to follow me wherever I go!
 iF: What can you tell me about your character?
 BENSON: Can't divulge anything about the role I played, but I got to be tough and sexy, so it was total fun. Plus, I got to wear some bitchin' cowboy boots.

iF:  What's up next for you?

BENSON: “Witchery”- the next GHOSTS OF ALBION book comes out in October and LOVERS, LIARS, AND LUNATICS is available online at www.loversliarsandlunatics.com.
