Joss is back!  
To write and direct Avengers 2. Not a big surprise, but they just made it official. Per MTV.com, he's also going to be developing a  TV show for ABC set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), and so far the wild speculation is as follows:


The exact specifics of that show — title, focus, cast of characters — are entirely under wraps, though it's been said that it could be "a high-concept cop show," leading many to believe that it's a S.H.I.E.L.D. focused television series.


Read the entire article here.

Eeeenteresting, no? While this is to be taken with a grain of salt for now, it still opens up all kinds of spec.

What think y'all? Got any more news to share?

IF one of them hooks up you'll be afraid of them dying? Oh, I think we can be assured that we should worry about everyone at all times!!!!! This is Joss. He's wonderful but he loves to throw in that kink into the wheel!

I'm going to go rock in the corner while whispering I'm a leaf on the wind. Watch me soar. over and over.

I don't think he could get away with killing off Cap, Iron Man or Thor (you know, the ones who have their own movie franchises), but I'm going to be very, very worried about Clint and Nat. Especially Clint.

It's too bad that Jeremy's star is on the rise right now because if he was in the show than he would be one of the only big names and then Joss couldn't kill him off! Okay, yeah, I'm just picking at random stars.

This is actually why I really want the TV show to stay away from the movie Avengers! Play with those superheroes over there! Make us love THEM! Kill THEM off!

That still leaves the movies to worry about. Sebastian has a five movie deal, I believe. I think I heard that once upon a time. Anyone know how many movies JR is contracted for? Since they aren't going to kill off Bucky anytime soon... *shivers*

How about we start a letter writing campaign NOW?

Oh my heart. NOT CLINT, okay? Just...*wibbles* you can make him deaf, Joss. I'm okay with that. But please no killing :'(

I thought about getting a shirt with that on it and decided I just couldn't. It would hurt too much to see it all the time!
