The big news broke last night that yes, Joss Whedon is returning to TV in a big way, and not with Fox. Variety is reporting that ABC has ordered a pilot for a series based on S.H.I.E.L.D., and as soon as possible.

Because of Joss' busy schedule, he will hand off the showrunning duties to Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen Whedon, but is set to direct the pilot, as long as he has time.

It's a good day, folks. A very good day indeed.

Disney has just dropped the sweet, delicious news that Joss Whedon is attached to direct The Avengers 2, and that's not all -- he's returning to TV as well.

In one of the greatest cases of both having and eating cake, Papa Joss will have a guiding hand on Marvel's upcoming show based on the established Marvel Cinematic Universe.

It might be a few years before we'll have more news on either project, but it's well worth getting excited for.

Excelsior!

Amy Acker is regular name thrown around the Whedonverse. The actress has appeared in several Whedon projects including The Cabin in The Woods, Dollhouse, Angel and most recently, opposite SHIELD's own Clark Gregg in Much Ado About Nothing. Whedon fans rejoice, for Amy is set to join the cast of Marvel's Agnets of SHIELD for at least one episode as Agent Coulson's unrequited love, a cellist from Portland.

The character was briefly mentioned in The Avengers and was brought up when Coulson was strolling through Tahiti laden memories earlier this season. The cellist thinks he's dead, but he'll have to protect her from afar when a super-powered threat emerges.

But you can only be Kaylee or a Nathan Fillion character... Or Spike, everyone loves Spike.
