Disney have confirmed that he will be returning to direct and write the highly-anticipated "Avengers" sequel. News of this was announced at the Walt Disney Investors Conference Call yesterday. It was also announced that Whedon will also be involved in the planned ABC/Disney live-action TV show based in "The Avengers" Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Here's what was said,
“Joss
Whedon has signed an exclusive deal with Marvel Studios for film and
television through the end of June 2015. As part of that deal, Whedon
will write and direct Marvel’s The Avengers 2 as well as help develop a
new live action series for Marvel Television at ABC. He will also contribute creatively to the next phase of Marvel’s cinematic universe.”
At least we all now know that this TV show is going to be the dogs bollocks then when it comes to story and special effects, etc. But yeah this is very good news for fans of the franchise. We all knew he was going to do it.
