Whedon Talks Wonder Woman Movie

Now Playing Magazine caught up with "Buffy" creator Joss Whedon about how the forthcoming "Wonder Woman" film is going. Timing wise the story "goes back to World War II. This will be in the modern day, but Wonder Woman herself will never be in the modern day."

Whedon confirms casting is not under consideration yet, as "We're like, 'Let's write the part! Then we'll have a better idea of who's good for it.' And we've talked about whether it should be someone famous or an unknown. Ultimately there are advantages to both, so nobody's thinking about that... except everybody."

Actually the film isn't as progressed as it sounds - "There hasn't even actually been a whole deal signed and everything [for Wonder Woman]. I'm working on it in the way that I always work on everything which is that I think about it while I'm doing other things, but right now we're in the final stages of wrapping up Serenity and that's where my focus is. The reason I was able to take the Wonder Woman gig was that they don't have a release date and they don't have a schedule, and that means I have time to sit back and get it right."

Thanks to 'Scott'.
