It seems Marvel doesn't have any intentions of confirming Joss Whedon as director of their highly anticipated hero-fusion, The Avengers, anytime soon. But actors who've had the chance to work under Whedon's direction, including Nathon Fillion & Morena Baccarin, have expressed their thoughts and expressions on Marvel's selection.


Now actress Felicia Day, who worked with Whedon in his previous film "Serenity" & Tv Series "Firefly", shares her thoughts with MTV, on her old boss behind the camera for The Avengers, instantly claiming the decision to be “amazing.”

“I mean, nobody else knows comics better than Joss,” she said, “He loves them with a passion and to throw that many comic book characters in a movie? I don’t know who else could handle it.”


MTV: Even though we don’t know which female characters they’ll use in the film, could Avengers team member be next?

“of course”. “I’m sort of more the indie side,”

To read more of what Felicia had to say, regarding her comic book, “The Guild,” from Dark Horse Comics, head over to MTV




DCMF: Waiting for Marvel to confirm Whedon, The Avengers will begin production early next year, with an unknown full roster, currently including Iron Man, Captain America, & Thor. In the meantime, what role do you think Ms. Felcia Day could tackle in the Marvel Universe? Personally I could see her doing Ms. Marvel justice, what do you think?

It's good news to me. I'm still iffy on him doing the Avenger's so the more people who talk about his love of comics and his talent is good for me. Good article!

I love Felicia Day on her web series The Guild. You should have mentioned more about her web series and its comic. Cool article though.

not bad find @DCMF
i could see her as MAYBE Scarlet Witch.
she has that natural red hair/green eyes combo.
but in all honesty, i could so many other actresses fill the role as well.
as for your journalism abilities, not too shabby.
btw
have you seen Part V of my Spider-man story?
here's the LINK if you haven't!

Nice find DCMF! Personally, I think that it would be more than fine to put this onto the main page! However, I have to disagree with you about her playing Ms. Marvel - that role belongs to Yvonne Strahovski! :)

I'm not sure which Marvel character I could see Day playing though...Victoria Hand perhaps?

Change her hair colour, put a pair of glasses on her and I think she'd actually be pretty perfect for that role! However, the character is a fairly recent one and was an agent of H.A.M.M.E.R so I'm not sure if they'd include her when there are dozens of other well known S.H.I.E.L.D agents they could use!
