Shortly after, she auditioned for a part in the television film An Invasion of Privacy and was eventually cast as Jennifer Bianchi.

During the mid to late 1980s, she appeared in the films Over the Brooklyn Bridge, Funny Farm and High Stakes, as well as in an episode of the television shows Spenser: For Hire and Crossbow. In 1991, she portrayed young Jacqueline Bouvier in the miniseries A Woman Named Jackie.

In 1999, she appeared in the film Simply Irresistible. The movie, however, garnered negative reviews and did not do well at the box office. She expressed regret for her choice to do the film, saying she was too young and was not ready to make the movie.

Also in 1999, she starred in Cruel Intentions, a modern-day retelling of Les Liaisons dangereuses.

Gellar, now 36, is also said to have gone under the knife to change her appearance. According to some reports, she underwent a rhinoplasty, which she had during her hiatus some time from 2010 to 2013. Some people think that the actress’ nose is now well defined and more sculptured on the nasal bridge than it was before. Plastic surgeon Dr. John Di Saia seemed to agree with the claim, saying that she had at least once before making her comeback.
