MTV interviewt Joss über alles
Aber auch über Dollhouse und Dr. Horrible:
“Dollhouse” — Whedon once swore off doing another show on FOX after “Firefly,” but come January, he’ll return to the network with “Dollhouse,” which has several Buffyverse alumni in its cast and crew, most notably Eliza Dushku as the show’s star, Amy Acker (Fred on “Angel”) as a recurring character, and Steven DeKnight (as a writer). “I tried not to make “Dollhouse” a family reunion,” Whedon said, “but I reluctantly read Amy, I realized I was the biggest idiot alive. I mean, how can I not have them come back? Have you seen them act?”
The pressure of returning to episodic television is bearing down on Whedon, though, since he’s again realizing that compared to comics, he has to keep to a tight schedule (he once famously delayed a few issues of “Fray” because of his work on “Firefly” — for about a year). Not that he doesn’t take his comics deadlines seriously, but if he has to skip a month’s issue, so be it — “It’ll just be that one month, and one month only, and never again,” he promises. “But we don’t have that luxury on TV. ‘Oh, yeah, you can come out a week later.’ Everything has to be taken care of. We just have to cowboy up and get it done.”
Which is all to say that despite the reunion factor, it’s not just “Joss’ friends having a goof,” as he puts it. “Which is what I do want people to think about Dr. Horrible.”
Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog — Speaking of which, the trailer is now online for the webisodes, airing July 15, 17, and 19. More on this project to come, but for now, suffice to say that this was a labor of love. “In some cases, you work with people you know, and they’re reunions, and in some cases, they’re just the people I hang out with,” Whedon said, “so we decided to do something other than go get food.”
Over the course of six days during the Writers’ Strike, Whedon, his brothers, and some friends put together a three-part musical starring Neil Patrick Harris as a supervillian trying to get into the Evil League of Evil. Nathan Fillion plays his superhero nemesis, and Felicia Day (former Slayer potential Vi) as the girl he likes at the laundromat. “You want to work with people you love and trust,” Whedon said. “That’s the theory. It’s not radical, but it’s mine.”
