ComingSoon.net shares a rather exciting press release from the movie makers over at Warner Bros. Pictures…and it’s news that should please many a frantic fanboy: not only is the "Wonder Woman" movie project a full-on, green-light go, and not only is there already an intriguing little teaser poster in circulation…but it looks like the flick will be written and directed by none other than Joss Whedon. Yes, the extremely popular and widely adored creator of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Angel," and "Firefly" will be bringing the DC comics heroine to the silver screen. WB head of Production Jeff Robinov summed it up succinctly by saying "He brings great energy and creativity to the process. His work on Buffy makes him uniquely qualified to handle the Wonder Woman character." Mr. Whedon is presently putting the finishing touches on his "Serenity," but should soon be pretty busy with the Amazon princess and her big-screen adventures.
