JOSS WHEDON ABANDONA WONDER WOMAN

Triste pero cierto. Joss Whedon (creador de "Buffy Cazavampiros"; "Angel" y "Firefly"), el que parecía el guionista/director más apropiado para llevar a cabo con dignidad el proyecto de adaptar a Wonder Woman a la gran pantalla, se ha salido del proyecto.

El propio Whedon lo comunico a Whedonesque, su weblog oficial hecho por fans, (muy buen trabajo, por cierto), en un escrito que dejó a muchos con la tristeza en el alma al saber que nunca podremos disfrutar de su visión del personaje en el cine. Y es que algunos esperabamos este proyecto con ganas, porque conociendo el trabajo de este genial creador es evidente que nos perdemos la que sin duda hubiera sido una de las películas del año en el que se hubiese estrenado.

En el comunicado Joss deja bastante claras las razones de su abandono del proyecto, y es que según parece ser ya no le quedaban ganas de seguir luchando en vano.

En fin, habrá que esperar a su siguiente proyecto para el cine, la película titulada "Goners", de la cuál todavía no se sabe ni el argumento.
A continuación os dejo las palabras que Whedon envió a Whedonesque contando sus razones:

" You (hopefully) heard it here first: I'm no longer slated to make Wonder Woman. What? But how? My chest... so tight! Okay, stay calm and I'll explain as best I can. It's pretty complicated, so bear with me. I had a take on the film that, well, nobody liked. Hey, not that complicated.Let me stress first that everybody at the studio and Silver Pictures were cool and professional. We just saw different movies, and at the price range this kind of movie hangs in, that's never gonna work. Non-sympatico. It happens all the time. I don't think any of us expected it to this time, but it did. Everybody knows how long I was taking, what a struggle that script was, and though I felt good about what I was coming up with, it was never gonna be a simple slam-dunk. I like to think it rolled around the rim a little bit, but others may have differing views.The worst thing that can happen in this scenario is that the studio just keeps hammering out changes and the writer falls into a horrible limbo of development. These guys had the clarity and grace to skip that part. So I'm a free man.Well, sorta. There is that "Goners" movie I can finally finish polishing, and plenty of other things in the hopper I've wanted to pursue. I'm as relieved as I am disappointed, and both of those things lead to drink, so that's a plus. Truly, you may be hearing some interesting things brewing in the coming months. But all potential jets therein will be visible.But most importantly, I never have to answer THAT question again!!!! And you don't have to link to every rumor site! Finally and forever: I never had an actress picked out, or even a consistant front-runner. I didn't have time to waste on casting when I was so busy air-balling on the script. (No! Rim! There was rim!) That's the greatest relief of all. I can do interviews again!Thanks for your time. You are the people who make the world go 'round. Or, no, science does that."

Hubiera estado genial esta película, especialmente si Nathan Fillion hubiese interpretado a Wonder Woman, como él mismo sugirió a Whedon enviándole esta fotografía.
