The title character in the blood sucking series, most famously played by Sarah Michelle Gellar, was originally brought to the cinemas in the 1992 movie of the same name, starring Kristy Swanson.
Gellar's TV show ran for six years before coming to an end in 2003.
And Fox has been a rumoured favourite to revive the series since studio bosses announced last month they are looking for a new vampire slayer to take the story back to the big screen.
But producer Roy Lee insists casting has yet to begin: "The rumours of Megan Fox being involved with Buffy are just rumours. As with any film project with a female lead under the age of 30, Megan is the actress that most studios want so it is no surprise her name is mentioned. While I think she would be great for our project, we are still in the early stages of developing the script."
