Joss Whedon is done with Marvel movies for the foreseeable future.

In case that wasn't clear enough by some of his blunt, revealing comments following the release of Avengers: Age of Ultron, that is.

The filmmaker and Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator said during a recent Q&A at Oxford Union that he no longer has any involvement of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a property he had previously worked for as "showrunner." "I've gone off the reservation for a while. It was five years that I was working on either Avengers or S.H.I.E.L.D.," Whedon said. "That was an enormous gift they gave me; they handed me several hundreds of millions of dollars and said 'do what you do,' which is very rare and I was very lucky. At the same time, it's important for me not just to have my own thing and do something smaller, but also to create a new challenge for myself because I will start to repeat myself."

Pressed for clarification on how "off the reservation" he was, Whedon spelled out, "No, you know, I was their sort of consigliere for a while...but I sort of had my finger in all of the films in the second phase but then I just had to concentrate only on Ultron and sort of know that when it was done, I was just going to stop, so I made a completely clean break."

...Of course, there's nothing to say he couldn't make his way to Warner Bros. to work on a DC property at some point, assuming the situation was right. But, probably don't bet on it right away.
