It's been a rumour for a while...there was also one of Faith having her own spinoff with Spike and Xander instead of the main series continuing.
Don't belive it til you see it :s

Buffy 'to live on with new star'
According to the BBC News website once Sarah leaves the show at the end of season 7, then there will be a new slayer to take the main role.
That Slayers name? Faith
Now whether the show will be renamed to Faith or keep the Buffy moniker it doesn't say.
Also remember that until Joss not only puts pen to paper but also gets actors on film then it's only a rumour.
Personally all I can say is mmmmmmFaith

Like Spikeo says, I'll believe it when I see it. I don't think anything has been confirmed just a comment made by the president of Mutant Enemy. And it sounds as if it would be a spin-off rather than just a continuation of the 'Buffy' show.
Still, it does sound intriguing. Not sure how it could explore new territory that hasn't already been explored in both Buffy and Angel. Still, that didn't stop them making four Star Trek spin-off shows.

As a slightly different take on the story, the Beeb's Buffy page has a story here

Well to be honest *if* it does happen then I will be very happy.
I think Buffy lost her zest when it all got too personal and although she always says slaying is her job, she doesn't have that bounce or freshness.
I think Faith could do very well for a couple of years

Then again Joss always said that he wanted to do a series with Eliza.. Now the real question is will they call it "Faith the Vampire Slayer" ?

They should do out of respect of it being a separate character.
Or even "Faith" would do

The important point here is if UPN want the show, and all information suggests that its new boss is no fan to day the least, this combined with no ratings suggests to me that Buffy wouldnt even be continuing if SMG was staying.

Latest news doing the rounds on the net is that Eliza Dusku has signed up for a Fox Pilot which if it's true then would mean no Faith spin-off. Don't know how reliable the source is, and the link has no real details.
