Details Revealed on Joss Whedon's Cabin in the Woods
Published 7/7/2008 by Alex Billington at FirstShowing.net
... huge Firefly fan myself, I'm anxious to see Whedon return in some form, even as a producer or writer. Whedon is currently working on a new TV series titled "Dollhouse", but we've finally got some news from him on a film project as well! Although I've never heard of it until now, Joss has been working on a project titled Cabin in the Woods, which sounds like some sort of horror-esque drama and romance movie all packed into one (as far as I can tell). MTV recently caught up with Whedon and Cabin in the Woods co-writer ...

Joss Whedon Does Horror

... started watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer . Yes I know I’m about a decade too late, but I figure if you’re going to join a cult the best time to join it is probably after all of its members are dead. Buffy fans may not exactly be dead, but most of them have moved on. So by the way has Joss Whedon, who is not planning Serenity 2 but is plotting to join the ranks of such auteurs as Eli Roth and Rob Zombie by making a horror movie. The news of his new bloodbath comes courtesy of MTV , where they got Whedon to dish on something called Cabin in the Woods . It’s a movie about ...

Whedon's "Goners" a goner, so what now?

... But the more interesting portion of MTV's piece, all of which you can read here, focused on Whedon's movie career or - recently, at least - the complete lack of one. Universal has for years now been kicking around a script he wrote for something called "Goners" which - shockingly enough - would have been about a young woman who gains some powers (well, I guess you should stick with what you know.) ...

Wondering what Joss Whedon's been up to?
Published 7/8/2008 at FilmWad
I'm a huge Buffy fan, so I get really excited when I hear Joss Whedon is working on a new movie, a new show, and new webisodes. The movie is called "Cabin in the Woods." Drew Goddard of Cloverfield says, It s genius, it s funny, and It s got a harder and darker edge, but it s also got classic Whedon qualities. It ll rip your heart out and be heartfelt at the same time. It's still in production and there isn't a release date, but I'm looking forward to it. The new TV show is "Dollhouse," and will premiere on FOX in January. The show stars Eliza Dushku, and Amy Acker (Fred ...

... --- Whedon Disseminated - This news has already spilled across the internets at lightning speed, as anything to do with Joss Whedon inevitably does, but it's not really even news, just a slight update on other projects Joss is handling besides Dr. Horrible and Dollhouse. It all stems from this interview with MTV; what Joss has pushed to the forefront of his attentions right now - again, we're talking besides his new TV show on FOX and his online musical - is the script for Cabin in the Woods, which he and Drew Goddard are ...

Whedon had just told the MTV Movie Blog that he’s been working on a screenplay called Goners, which he described as a “very personal thing…a horror fantasy…about a young woman who gains some powers.” (Hmmm…sounds familiar…) That got put on the backburner to make room for Cabin and his upcoming 2009 TV series, Dollhouse. ...

Joss Whedon Builds a Cabin in the Woods [In Development]
Published 7/9/2008 by Rob Hunter at Film School Rejects
... MTV Movies Blog recently chatted with Whedon about upcoming happenings in Joss’ world, and he let slip about something quite different from his usual fare. Cabin in the Woods is a new film Whedon co-wrote with Cloverfield writer Drew Goddard.  As the title implies, the film is Whedon’s take on the Evil Dead, Cabin Fever, Wrong Turn genre… basically terrible things happening to young people in (and around) a cabin in the woods.  It’s doubtful Whedon’s version will contain vines that ...
