joss whedon will write and direct 'The Avengers 2'

Joss Whedon has decided to return to write and direct The Avengers 2, according to a statement from Disney Chairman Bob Iger.

This should come as no surprise since the first installment raked in over $1.5 billion world wide, but as recently as this year’s Comic-Con, Whedon’s return wasn’t a sure thing.  Speaking on a panel at the  event, the director told fans,  “I have not come to a decision on directing Avengers 2 yet”

It appears Disney was able to entice the director after some serious negotiations, purportedly offering him the big raise he deserved for creating a cash hog for the studio.  A recent report by the Wrap says the recent quarterly income at Disney Studios  “jumped to $313 million from $49 million a year earlier,” mostly because of the success of The Avengers. | Full Story
