No he infartado pero anoche brindé un poco a costa de esta noticia :D
En este panel de la Comic Con de 2015, Whedon presenta Twist en el 5:15. Más tarde, en el 21:43, contestando a una pregunta sobre personajes que se vuelven malos/se redimen, cita Dark Willow y lo linkea con la heroína de Twist.
Por si al final Twist se parece a The Nevers...

-@PennyRed OMG- amazing! are you actually in the same writers room as Joss Whedon?
-Yes, he’s my boss!
Siendo HBO y con el baremo establecido por la serie que termina este año (y estoy convencido que razón colateral de que Whedon haya terminado en HBO ya que están cubriéndose con todo lo posible ante el obvio bajón de audiencia que pueden tener cuando termine GoT), me da a mi que vamos a ver unas cuantas de esas muertes :D
Algo que me ha encantado ver hoy ha sido un tuit en el que un usuario (español, por cierto) al leer la noticia, el pasado verano, lo primero que puso fue una foto de Madame Vastra y Jenny :D
Jane Espenson será Executive Producer y parece que co-showrunner. Ignoro si llevando ambos la serie como Whedon y Tim Minear en Firefly o más tipo segundo abordo como David Greenwalt y Marti Noxon en Buffy (uno en las temporadas 1-3 y la otra en las 4, 6-7).
Rodaje de junio a febrero (esto pinta a 10-12 episodios). Whedon escribe y dirige el primero.
Joss Whedon's THE NEVERS to start shooting in June for HBO
HBO Boss Casey Bloys Gives Us a Status Update on Joss Whedon’s ‘The Nevers’
TCA 2019: Programming chief tells TheWrap the “Buffy” creator is writing — and it’s “very exciting”
Calling all Whedonverse fans, we have a status update on your leader’s next big project
TheWrap asked HBO programming chief Casey Bloys on Friday during the Television Critics Association press tour where the premium cable network is with the upcoming Joss Whedon sci-fi drama series, “The Nevers,” which was first announced last July.
And here is what he had to say: “We just started. [Joss] has been writing. It’s very exciting. He’s great to work with. We’ve just started talking about names, starting auditions, things like that. So we’re just starting.”
“The Nevers” is described as an epic science fiction drama about a gang of Victorian women who find themselves with unusual abilities, relentless enemies, and are on a mission that might change the world.
Whedon will serve as writer, showrunner and executive producer, the first TV series he will helm since Fox’s short-lived “Dollhouse” in 2009-2010.
“We have long been fans of the incredibly talented and prolific Joss Whedon and we can’t think of a better project than ‘The Nevers’ with which to welcome him to the HBO family,” Bloys said in a statement when the series was ordered. “We look forward to meeting the strange, multifaceted characters of ‘The Nevers,’ to learn their stories, see them in action and share them with our viewers. We’re honored that Joss chose HBO as the place to build his ambitious new world and we are excited to get started.”
“I honestly couldn’t be more excited,” Whedon added. “‘The Nevers’ is maybe the most ambitious narrative I’ve created, and I can’t imagine a better home for it than HBO. Not only are they the masters of cinematic long-form, but their instant understanding of my odd, intimate epic was as emotional as it was incisive. It’s been too long since I created an entirely new fictional world, and the HBO team offer not just scope and experience, not just ‘prestige,’ but a passionate collaboration. I could go on, but – I’m impatiently grateful to say – I have work to do.”
On the small screen, Whedon is most known for helming “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” its spinoff “Angel” and “Firefly.” He was also among the major creative forces for Marvel’s big screen Cinematic Universe, directing both “The Avengers” and its sequel, “Avengers: Age of Ultron.” He also helped the MCU expand to television, directing the pilot for ABC’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”
Whedon is currently helming “The Nevers” for HBO and has a female detective comedy series in the works at Freeform. He is also executive producing the “Buffy” reboot, which will be written by “Midnight, Texas” creator Monica Owusu-Breen.
Gemma Jackson, que trabajó en las tres primeras temporadas de Juego de tronos, se incorpora a The Nevers como diseñadora de producción:
EXCLUSIVE: JOSS WHEDON’S HBO SERIES ‘THE NEVERS’ ADDS PRODUCTION DESIGNER GEMMA JACKSON (‘GAME OF THRONES’)
Parece que ser que Seamus McGarvey será el director de fotografía. Ya trabajó con Whedon en Avengers y ha llegado a estar nominado al Oscar.
Por otra parte Madhuri Shekar, staff writer, puso un story en su Instagram diciendo que le quedaba una semana de trabajo en la sala de guionistas de su primera serie. No me cuadra que sea The Nevers porque aunque HBO quiera rodar con todo (o casi) escrito, aún es muy pronto salvo que por la razón que sea su trabajo termine ahora.
Estos días Madhuri Shekar parecía sugerir que el trabajo en la sala de guionistas estaba cerca de terminar y hoy tanto ella como Laury Penny lo han confirmado:
https://scontent-mad1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...2e&oe=5D2381CC
Hay por tanto un gap importante de 3 meses hasta inicio de rodaje en junio. Tal vez es la forma de trabajar de la HBO: primero todo el guión (o buena parte), pre producción (que ya cuadra con el anuncio de Gemma Jackson: necesita semanas/meses para construir platós etc), y finalmente rodaje completo de la temporada.
33 semanas de rodaje que empiezan este junio en Londres:

Bernadette Caulfield se incorpora a The Nevers como Executive Producer. Ha trabajado en X-Files, Carnivale y actualmente lo hace en Game of Thrones. Por su experiencia (Emmy incluido) parece una productora de rodaje/plató, no guionista-productora, o creativa.
HBO parece van en serio con The Nevers. Bueno, esta gente siempre va en serio. Punto.

Kevin Lau se une al proyecto como guionista/productor en The Nevers.
Lau is a graduate of the Columbia University's MFA Film Program where he received the coveted Faculty Select prize - the highest honor bestowed upon a feature-length screenplay. (cuenta fan The Nevers en Facebook).

“Well, I wish I was that important,” Caulfield said when I reached her in England, where she’s working on Joss Whedon’s new series, “The Nevers,” for HBO. “But obviously it takes a major team to put it together.”
Jordan Peele’s ‘Lovecraft Country,’ Joss Whedon’s ‘The Nevers’ to Begin Filming This Summer
What do Jordan Peele and Joss Whedon have in common? Both prolific producers have ambitious HBO series that will soon be going into production.
TheWrap spoke with Casey Bloys, the pay-TV channel’s programming chief, on Friday about the status of the “Us” director’s “Lovecraft Country” and the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” creator’s “The Nevers,” two projects eagerly anticipated by fans of the Peeleverse and Whedonverse, respectively.
And lucky for both camps, those series are about to start filming.
“[Whedon] has been furiously writing the scripts,” Bloys assured us, regarding “The Nevers.” “He’s been writing, he has a staff, and we’re shooting this summer.”
Bloys couldn’t give us an exact production-start date, “but it’s sometime this summer in London.”
“The Nevers” is described as an epic science fiction drama about a gang of Victorian women who find themselves with unusual abilities, relentless enemies, and are on a mission that might change the world. Whedon will serve as writer, showrunner, director and executive producer on the show, marking the first TV series he’s helmed since Fox’s short-lived “Dollhouse” in 2009-2010.
Primera noticia de reparto: Laura Donnelly
https://scontent-mad1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...af&oe=5D2B7B26
Joss Whedon's HBO Series 'The Nevers' Casts 'Outlander' Actress as Lead
Laura Donnelly will play a lead role in the drama about a group of Victorian women with extraordinary abilities.
Outlander actress Laura Donnelly has taken a lead role in Joss Whedon's sci-fi series at HBO.
Donnelly will star in The Nevers, a drama about a group of Victorian-era women "who find themselves with unusual abilities, relentless enemies and a mission that might change the world," per HBO's logline.
Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Avengers) is co-writing the straight-to-series project with Buffy veterans Jane Espenson and Doug Petrie and will also serve as showrunner and director.
Donnelly will play Amalia True, described as the most reckless, impulsive, emotionally damaged hero of her time. A menace to stuffy Victorian society, she would die for the cause and kill for a drink.
"Laura Donnelly has charisma, wisdom and an anarchic precision that not only captures Amalia, but defines her," said Whedon. "She's fierce and she’s funny — and I need both for the journey ahead."
The Nevers landed at HBO in 2018 after a multiple-outlet bidding war. It's the first TV series Whedon will showrun since Fox's Dollhouse a decade ago (he's an executive producer of ABC's Agents of SHIELD but not directly involved). At the time of its pickup, Whedon called it "maybe the most ambitious narrative I've created."
Donnelly has recurred on Outlander as Jenny Fraser, Jamie's (Sam Heughan) sister. Her credits also include Tolkien, The Fall and ABC's Missing. She is repped by Jonathan Arun in the U.K., CAA and attorney Shelby Weiser.
The Nevers doesn't yet have a premiere date. It's part of an upcoming HBO slate that includes Veep creator Armando Iannucci's space comedy Avenue 5, Los Espookys, The Righteous Gemstones, Perry Mason, Mrs. Fletcher and Run, along with a pilot for a Game of Thrones prequel. The channel is under orders from corporate parent WarnerMedia to increase its output of scripted originals and is opening up a second night of originals Mondays with Gentleman Jack.
Deadline first reported Donnelly's casting.
Y otra novedad a raiz de la info anterior:
Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Avengers) is co-writing the straight-to-series project with Buffy veterans Jane Espenson and Doug Petrie and will also serve as showrunner and director.
Sabíamos que Espenson estaba en ello pero no Doug Petrie. Otro veterano de Buffy y Angel, y hace poco co-showrunner de Daredevil 2o año y The Defenders.

Madhuri Shekar, guionista de The Nevers, ha colgado fotos e info en Instagram: dice que ha escrito el Episodio 4 y co-escrito el 9.
Asumo que Whedon escribe/dirige el primero, tal vez el último y alguno más. Jane Espenson supongo que el segundo o tercero (es habitual que el creador escriba también el 2o, veremos, en Firefly fue así pero por accidente) y alguno más.
En un intercambio de tuits ayer entre Joss Whedon y Marti Noxon (su mano derecha en Buffy desde la 4a temporada) ella mencionó The Nevers y él dijo:
I think you’ll be pleased.
Veremos!
Chequeo imdb y veo que hay más nombres confirmados. No sé desde cuando pero allá va:
-Espenson y Petrie aparecen como Executive Producer, algo que ya era obvio, una porque ya se anunció como tal y el otro porque desde los años de Buffy se ha convertido en un productor potente, showrunner de Daredevil, así que no va a fichar por menos aunque trabaje bajo Whedon. Serán, seguro, sus lugartenientes aunque me sorprende que Petrie parezca haberse incorporado tras la fase de guión. A lo mejor se dedicará a reescrituras o ayudará a Whedon y Espenson en rodaje.
-Martyn John y Hazel Keane en dirección artística.
-Jane Petrie en vestuario.
-Production Manager: Lisa Byrne
-Primer asistente de director: Matthew Penry-Davey
-Storyboards: John Colebourn

Mega anuncio de casting y bios AKA la colaboración entre Nick Frost y Joss Whedon que nunca supe que había soñado hasta hoy.
Sacan a Olivia de la casa de muñecas.
Parece que Joss ha conseguido su particular cruce entre lo que hubiese sido Twist y lo que fue su pequeño arco en Runaways, con un toque X-Women.
Olivia Williams will play Lavinia Bidlow, a wealthy spinster and champion of the “Touched,” who funds the Orphanage (where Amalia and many of the Touched live) through her vast family fortune. She is stern and old-fashioned, but as strong-willed and clever as anyone she confronts.
https://secure.i.telegraph.co.uk/mul...y_2554019b.jpg
James Norton will play Hugo Swann, a pansexual posh boy whose charm has about five years left on its lease. He runs a secret club and a side trade in blackmail. He’s devoted to fulfilling everyone’s worst impression of him and is fascinated by the Touched.
https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images...4/4lly4pG4.jpg
Tom Riley will play Augustus “Augie” Bidlow, a sweet, disarming nerd and Lavinia’s younger brother. A keen ornithologist, Augie is happy to let his older sister take the reins of the family fortune. He finds the Touched unnerving, but is drawn to them by his increasing infatuation with Miss Adair, and by the schemes of his nefarious best friend, Hugo.
https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/...zNjA@._V1_.jpg
Ann Skelly will play Penance Adair, Amalia’s dearest friend and one of the first women to join her cause. A devout — yet heretically progressive — Irish girl, Penance has genius for invention. She is delighted by her power, and her default is love and acceptance. But she’s firm in her moral sense, and will be guided by what’s right over what’s expedient every time.
https://i2.wp.com/metro.co.uk/wp-con...44%2C427&ssl=1
Ben Chaplin will play Detective Frank Mundi, a big, gruff, and deeply moral man who trusts no one, least of all himself. His reputation for sudden violence (and excessive drink) is not unwarranted. Frank finds himself caught between the powerful, who ignore the laws of the land, and newly empowered, who ignore the laws of physics.
https://res.cloudinary.com/solt/imag...idvddxwgny.jpg
Pip Torrens will play Lord Massen, who is staunch, unflappable and merciless in his defense of the British Empire, this former General, now Peer, may be the only man who sees clearly what havoc these few strange people can wreak upon the established order. Which he will protect, one way or another.
https://www.tvovermind.com/wp-conten...ns-640x329.jpg
Zackary Momoh will play Doctor Horatio Cousens, one of the few successful West Indian physicians in London. Married with a young son, Horatio’s fortunes took a dark turn when he met Amalia and discovered his own ability. Now he works with her, and with the Beggar King, those who don’t care who is or isn’t “different.”
https://i1.wp.com/thehedonistmagazin...50%2C700&ssl=1
Amy Manson will play Maladie, who is committed by her husband (and genuinely unstable), and has been warped by a power she can’t understand, and tortured by doctors intent on finding its source. She now lives underground, runs a gang and is on an infamous murder spree. She affects a theatrical parody of a bedlam waif, but mad as she is, she’s a woman with a purpose.
https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/...20170408064329
Nick Frost will play Declan Orrun, aka The Beggar King, who is charismatic and brutal. Declan runs, or has a piece of, most of the low-level criminal activity in the city. He’s perfectly happy to help Amalia and her cause – and equally happy to sell them out. He backs winners, and the Touched are long odds.
http://marrieddivorce.com/uploads/images/nick-frost.jpg
Rochelle Neil will play Annie Carbey, aka Bonfire. Annie is a career criminal who landed the ability to control fire and is happy to hire it out. Came up rough, stayed that way, but she’s neither impulsive nor cruel – just looking out for herself. No matter who she works with or for, Annie trusts only Annie, and the fire.
https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/...6,1000_AL_.jpg
Eleanor Tomlinson will play Mary Brighton, a gentle but surprisingly resilient woman who pursued her dream of singing on stage. A disappointing career and a broken engagement haven’t diminished her spirit. She’s going to be great. She’s going to be very surprised how.
https://www.countylifestyleandleisur...k-series-4.jpg
Denis O’Hare will play Dr. Edmund Hague, a gifted American surgeon. He uses his skills in the coldest, most brutal way possible. But it’s all in the name of progress!

Justo venía a ponerlo aquí.
Todo suena demasiado bien. Hasta los nombres de los personajes. Conozco a Ben Chaplin de la serie Press, de la BBC, y ahí estaba de escándalo. Es muy bueno. Laura Donnelly ya ha contado en Instagram que por fin han revelado el cast y que es el mejor ever y esas cosas que se dicen.
El primer episodio no debería tardar en terminar su rodaje. Veremos entonces si Whedon dirige más. Lo normal sería que escriba el primero y último, tal vez alguno más (sólo o con Espenson y/o Petrie), y dirija el primero y espero el último. Descarto que los dirija todos porque salió trasquilado anímicamente del MCU por las cargas de trabajo y esto es de julio a febrero.
Suele escribir lo que dirige y dirigir lo que escribe, con alguna excepción, pero ya veremos.
Yep, pero es fácil que escriba algún episodio y no lo dirija, ya que la escritura se hizo entera (o casi entera, se supone) entre otoño y febrero pasados, por lo que puede no coincidir. Yo apuesto por escribir/dirigir primero y último, y escribir o co-escribir alguno por en medio.Cita:
Iniciado por J.S.
Una de las guionistas ya reveló (aunque lo borró) que ella había escrito el 4o y co-escrito el 9. Si son 10, y andan Espenson y Petrie por ahí, y 4-5 guionistas más, y siendo seguro serie de 1h por episodio, creo que será eso, unos 2 de 10 y quien sabe si alguno más. Acreditado, claro, porque siendo creador y showrunner habrá metido mano en todos, y siendo serie moderna (que se filma todo a la vez) fijo que habrá rodado sin acreditar material de otros episodios.
Efectivamente no suele dirigir lo que no escribe salvo sus episodios de The Office y Glee, que fueron por capricho y en series con sus propios guionistas, y un episodio de Angel que nunca he sabido el motivo de tal combinación.
Bueno, ya sabes que Whedon ha llegado a prácticamente reescribir guiones enteros sin acreditar. Una de las partes más cachondas de los audiocomentarios de Buffy y cia es oír a los guionistas hablar de todo lo que en realidad no era suyo... :cuniao
También hubo varias instancias de dirigir escenas sueltas. La más famosa, la revelación en la iglesia de que Spike tenía alma, cuya primear versión no le gustó.
No recuerdo ningún caso en que dirigiera un guion "ajeno", sin embargo, dentro de lo que esto pueda significar con lo ya dicho. Hay más casos en viceversa, pero eso se hizo más frecuente durante aquel breve pero hermoso lugar en el tiempo en el que tuvo tres shows en antena, comprensiblemente.
Dios, aún no me he recuperado del día en que la noticia de la cancelación de Firefly iluminó de oscuridad la pantalla de mi ordenador. Ni del puto día en el que Whedon dejó un mensaje en internet anunciando que se iba a negociar la sexta temporada de Angel y bromeaba con que esperaba que no se cancelaria, con sus ja ja ja incluidos para... Mira, mejor lo dejamos. :rubor
Seis anuncios más de casting!
‘The Nevers’: Joss Whedon’s HBO Sci-Fi Drama Series Adds 6 To Cast
https://pmcdeadline2.files.wordpress...1&h=383&crop=1
Kiran Sonia Sawar (Pure, Brexit: The Uncivil War), Elizabeth Berrington (In Bruges, Naked) Ella Smith (Ray & Liz, Kill Your Friends), Viola Prettejohn (Counterpart, The Witcher) Anna Devlin (All the Money in the World, Hanna) are set as series regulars and Martyn Ford (The Intergalactic Adventures of Max Cloud, The Marine: Close Quarters) will recur in The Nevers’ HBO’s straight-to-series drama from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator and The Avengers writer-director Joss Whedon.
Co-written by Whedon and Buffy alums Jane Espenson and Doug Petrie and directed by Whedon, The Nevers is an epic science fiction drama about a gang of Victorian women who find themselves with unusual abilities, relentless enemies, and a mission that might change the world.
The six actors join lead Laura Donnelly along with previously cast Olivia Williams, James Norton, Tom Riley, Ann Skelly, Ben Chaplin, Pip Torrens, Zackary Momoh, Amy Manson, Nick Frost, Rochelle Neil, Eleanor Tomlinson and Denis O’Hare.
Sawar will play Harriet Kaur. A young Scottish Sikh, Harriet lives with the Orphans, but is accepted by both her family and her betrothed. Optimistic without being naive, Harriet is determined to live her life as she planned, despite its increasing weirdness.
Berrington is Lucy Best. Dirt poor, adaptive, streetwise. There’s nothing delicate about Lucy, though she’s given up thieving to live with the Orphans. Her quick-wit and high spirits mask the pain of a tragic past.
Smith will portray Desirée Blodgett. A whore, and an increasingly popular one: her power makes men tell her everything on their minds, and they come away relieved in more than one sense. Unfortunately, what she’s heard may get her killed, even though she honestly doesn’t listen to most of it. She’s devoted to her six year old son, who, bless him, never speaks.
Prettejohn will play Myrtle Haplisch. A middle-class girl rescued from a family who cannot understand her – literally, as she can no longer speak English, or anything resembling speech. She’s thrilled to be living at the orphanage, where she’s everyone’s favorite weird little mascot.
Devlin is Primrose Chattoway. All 16-year-old Primrose wants is to be a proper, ordinary girl, and not take up too much space. Which, at ten feet tall, is hard. Most everything is either dreamy, unfair, or too embarrassing to live through.
Ford will play Nicolas Perbal, aka Odium – The quintessential henchman. He looks as unpleasant as he smells – a side-effect if his rather surprising “turn”. Will do any kind of work for anybody’s money.
Whedon, who serves as showrunner and also directs, executive produces with Espenson, Petrie and Bernie Caulfield.
Sawar and Berrington are repped by United Agents. Smith is represented by Wishlab and Gersh in the U.S. and Independent Talent Group in the UK. Prettejohn is repped by Waring and McKenna. Devlin is repped by Olivia Bell. Ford is repped by The BWH Agency in the UK.
Se dice, se dice, que han bloqueado el estudio (interiores?) por 5 años, lo que implicaría 3 temporadas (ritmo HBO, claro). A lo mejor es un procedimiento habitual por si todo va bien, no sé.
Hace unos días Whedon tuiteó un texto + foto de Lisa Lassek. Fue editora en Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Serenity Dr Horrible, The Cabin in the Woods, Avengers y Age of Ultron. Y, claro, está, The Nevers.
Es de suponer que ya están editando, o ya está editado, el primer episodio.
Some people you enjoy working with. Some are part of how & why you work. Genius editor & inadvertent Mouseketeer Lisa Lassek is a heart surgeon: when she cuts, it beats stronger. 1st collaboration: the Buffy Musical. 2nd: everything else I’ve done. #TheNevers #YeahBitch

Eso nos deja con un 1 año entero entre fin rodaje (leí por ahí que sería de junio a febrero.. Si empezó al final en julio, tal vez acaben en marzo). Debe haber mucho FX y demás, o no sé..
Hay que recordar que las diseñadoras de producción y productora ejecutiva logística de Game of Thrones trabajan en The Nevers: vamos que esto pinta grande..
So I think that’s official that #TheNevers is coming to
