Joss Whedon Is “Torn” Over Whether to Take on Avengers 2

by Susana Polo | 2:00 pm, May 16th, 2012

If there’s one thing that we’ve learned from the production of The Avengers, it’s that Joss Whedon is a superlatively busy guy. He’s got four movies out this year, only two of which have yet to be released, and one of them is a Shakespearean play filmed by Joss and a bunch of actor friends over a weekend at his house. And that’s just The Avengers, heyoooo -

Anyway, lets move on and not dwell on how that joke didn’t actually make any sense. The Los Angeles Times sat down with Whedon before The Avengers even opened to ask him about its themes, and the odds of him coming back for a sequel, and unfortunately for our hopes and dreams, he displayed some pretty classic artistic integrity and said he wasn’t sure yet.

Warren Ellis and Joss Whedon Are Still Working On A Thing

by Susana Polo | 1:21 pm, April 18th, 2011

It’s flown under the radar for a while, because of Joss Whedon making himself quite busy with nearly every Marvel comics movie coming out in the next two years, but he and Warren Ellis have a standing agreement to reprise Doctor Horrible‘s internet distribution method on a project called Wastelanders. Says Whedon:

I talked at great length and planned at great length the idea of a portal and putting shows together, having an Internet identity and starting my own little micro-studio. Nobody in town was interested, and then by the time they were, “Avengers” came around. I was and will continue to work on a very, very different Internet mini-thing that I was writing with Warren Ellis, and I have a lot of ideas for things I want to put up there. I still believe it’s a viable financial model, and a creative playground and I miss it.
