SFX WHEDON SPECIAL PREVIEW: Serenity 2 Painful To Think About, Says Joss
None
He thinks about the scenes he’ll never get to shoot every day, he reckons
In the new SFX Worlds Of Whedon special, Joss Whedon reveals why it's painful to even contemplate the idea of making a Serenity 2 :
While it wasn’t a box office barn burner, Serenity is now something of a hit on DVD and Blu-ray, which makes the possibility of a sequel seem more likely. Alas, Whedon only shakes his head at the prospect: “As far as Firefly is concerned, that will always be unfinished business. Serenity was a Band-Aid on a sucking flesh wound. I think every day about the scenes that I’ll never get to shoot and how badass they were. It’s nice to know that people still care about Firefly but it’s actual grief that I feel. It’s not something you get over, it’s just something you learn to live with.”
