“Buffy” fans have even more reasons to be excited for Joss Whedon’s return to television: he may be bringing back some more familiar faces.

For his new show, “Dollhouse,” creator Whedon has already cast “Buffy” alum Eliza Dushku as the lead. According to TV Guide, he’s considering some of the other Buffyverse actors to take some of the eight supporting roles.

At the Paley Festival on Thursday, Whedon admitted that “I’ve read a couple of people [from the Buffyverse], but I’m not going to say who.”

Originally however, Whedon said he thought it would be lazy to cast his “Buffy” pals. “It’s not a hard and fast rule,” he told TV Guide in the fall. “I just want to make sure I get the right people. And I don’t want to give the impression that it’s just me and my friends having a party. Some [Buffyverse alums] might work out fine. But I’m not going to just seek out people that I already know are great.
