Joss Whedon is testing out both ends of the movie spectrum at the moment, going mega-budget with the ambitious The Avengers and also setting up Bellwether Pictures, a micro-studio making tiny, no-budget movies. The company’s first film is a Whedon directed adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing that’s already in the can.
Now Joss is putting together Bellwether’s next flick, In Your Eyes, with Brin Hill directing from Whedon’s script. Deadline reports that Zoe Kazan (Bored to Death, Meek’s Cutoff) and Michael Stahl-David (Cloverfield) have been cast in the lead roles in the movie, which is billed as ‘a metaphysical love story about two seemingly polar opposites who are deeply connected in ways neither could have ever imagined.’
Stahl-David will be Dylan, a boyish-looking man who served time in jail for robbery when he refused to rat on his accomplices. Kazan meanwhile will play Rebecca, an attractive but skinny and slightly awkward woman, who is married to an older doctor. Though they’ve never met and he lives in New Mexico and she’s in Connecticut, they can hear and see one another across that distance.
The movie starts shooting soon in LA and Boston.
It appears Mad Men star Abigail Spencer has lined herself up a role to star in the supernatural romance In Your Eyes, which has been written by Joss Whedon, who is also producing, according to 
Joss Whedon is one ridiculously busy man. Not content with taking on The Avengers, it was revealed last week that he’s also managed to find the time to shoot a new, low-budget take on Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing which he planning to take on the festival circuit next year.
