Not that this will surprise anyone but it is now official, Joss Whedon will write and direct Avengers 2. Disney CEO Bob Iger made the announcement today during a conference call. That wasn’t the only news he had though. He went on to say that Whedon will also help develop the live-action drama series set within the Marvel cinematic universe that we previously reported.
With Avengers having made $1.46 billion since it’s release this news isn’t really shocking but still, THANK YOU Marvel for bringing back Whedon. His being involved with the live-action show also comes as great news. With Marvel’s catalogue of characters the possibilities are endless for this show. Looks like it’s time to get the band back together.
