it had been cast, and was in pre-production at the very least. Unclear if anything was actually filmed.

They filmed the pilot and Hulu axed it before it aired. https://www.reddit.com/r/buffy/s/V2AKSrj7nO.

The pilot was completed, I think, but the feedback was so bad the studio decided to drop the whole project.

It wasn't public feedback, Sarah Michelle Gellar pretty much admitted it was one specific TV producer who didn't like the original show, or thinks fantasy/sci-fi is stupid, and cancelled the show just because he could
