Clark Gregg’s Agent Coulson Back For S.H.I.E.L.D. TV Series

October 15, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

One of the main things tying together the likes of Iron Man and Thor was Clark Gregg’s Agent Coulson, but as those who’ve seen Avengers will know, it appeared that film would be the last we’d see of Clark Gregg’s character.

However, New York Comic Cong 2012 brought forth the surprise news that Gregg and Agent Coulson, will return for Marvel’s S.H.I.E.L.D., the new Marvel TV series set to air on ABC. At the event, it was only confirmed he’d appear in the pilot of the show, leading to speculation the entire show will either be a prequel to The Avengers, he survived that film (which has been speculated upon since the movie’s release), or that the pilot will be based around the events of the Battle Of New York, and therefore Gregg will only appear in the opening episode.

It was also confirmed that Joss Whedon will be co-writing the pilot with Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen. (Source: Marvel)

First Avengers Assemble Clip Sees Black Widow Kick Some Ass

April 4, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Although Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow was introduced in Iron Man 2, she didn’t have an awful lot to do in the movie. However she’s back in The Avengers, and along with Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye, is the major character we’ve see least of. It’s not surprising therefore that the first official clip form the film is dedicated to her, showing they she can kick ass with the best of them and that this won’t just be a testosterone fest (assuming Asgardgian gods like Thor have testosterone, of course). Here Black Widow/Natasha Romanova being called into action by S.H.I.E.L.D.’s Agent Coulson. The film hits UK cinemas on April 26th, when Black Widow will be joined by Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye and Black Widow.

Joss Whedon Reveals Much Ado About Nothing

October 25, 2011 By Movie Muser Leave a Comment

You’d think that with The Avengers on his plate Joss Whedon would have enough to do to fill his time. However, he’s apparently not content with just the superheroes, as he’s also found time to shoot a new version of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing, filled with actors he’s worked with on his TV shows and films.

Hints about the movie were first tweeted over the weekend by the likes of Firefly actors Nathan Fillion and Sean Maher, along with links to a website – muchadomovie.com. However at the time nobody was certain exactly what it was, with some speculating it was a web series (like Whedon’s Dr. Horrible), other saying it was some sort of joke and still more betting it was a real movie, even though they weren’t sure how Whedon would have had time to make it, or if he did, how he kept a secret.

However, now Bellwether Pictures – a micro-studio Whedon has set up to produce ‘small, independent narratives for all media, embracing a DIY ethos and newer technologies’ – has revealed more info. Apparently the new take on Shakespeare’s classic was filmed in just 12 days on location in Santa Monica. the film features a stellar cast of beloved (or soon to be beloved) actors – some of them veterans of Shakespearean theater, some completely new to the form. But all dedicated to the idea that this story bears retelling, that this dialogue is as fresh and intoxicating as any being written, and that the joy of working on a passion project surrounded by dear friends, admired colleagues and an atmosphere of unabashed rapture far outweighs their hilariously miniature paychecks.

Shot in glorious black and white by Jay Hunter (Paper Heart, Dollhouse), the film stars Amy Acker (The Cabin in the Woods, Alias) and Alexis Denisof (How I Met Your Mother, Angel) as Beatrice and Benedick, the world’s least likely lovers headed for their inevitable tumble into love. As Joss Whedon puts it: “The text is to me a deconstruction of the idea of love, which is ironic, since the entire production is a love letter – to the text, to the cast, even to the house it’s shot in.” The supporting cast includes Nathan Fillion (Castle, Waitress) as Dogberry, Clark Gregg (The Avengers, Iron Man) as Leonato, Fran Kranz (The Cabin in the Woods, Dollhouse) as Claudio and Reed Diamond (Franklin & Bash, Moneyball) as Don Pedro. The film should be completed by early spring and headed for the festival circuit.

It’ll be interesting to see what Whedon’s managed to come up with.
