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?

I'm very curious where the show will go. I trust Joss and I'm sure it will be awesome.

I'm relieved that he is doing the movie. I think there are few directors, if any, that can balance all of the elements that need to go into those films. That being said, I share the concern that Joss is going to go messing things up. I will say in his favor that death is not always the end when it comes to Joss. I mean how many times did Buffy die? Also, depending on how the Bourne movie goes, I think he probably knows having Jeremy Renner is an asset. He has credibility as an actor and can obviously keep up with the action. Then there is the worst case scenario that he does kill Hawkeye...there's always fanfiction. I live in a world where Sirius Black exists and nothing can change my mind. The power of denial!

I have come to the conclusion that if Elektra could survive "Daredevil," that Coulson is not dead and no one else would really die. but now I'm going to have this nagging fear in the back of my mind that something bad is going to happen to Clint, and I don't like it. :(

of course, having said that, I am thrilled beyond measure that Joss helming 2, because no one else could or should do it.
