and decided on Alyson Hannigan. Willow Rosenburg, Buffy's originally geeky, awkward computer hacking buddy, was on the show the entire seven years it ran. By season seven, Hannigan's character of Willow had gone from a super-geek to a super-wicca who tried to end the world one year, and saved it the next. Alyson Hannigan spent her downtime from Buffy the Vampire Slayer auditioning - and snagging - movie roles. Her biggest movie success came when she was cast as high school band member, Michelle, in American Pie. She has since starred in American Pie 2 and American Wedding.
