Joss Whedon has said that he’d be interested in making a movie for DC, and while sad he isn't getting to direct the forthcoming Wonder Woman movie, he's still excited to see it.

While promoting new film Avengers: Age of Ultron, the writer-director has been telling all and sundry that this would be his last Marvel movie for the foreseeable future . So we asked if he’d consider defecting to the other side.“Sure. I’d be like ‘I have all these joke ideas.’ And they’d be like ‘No, we don’t do that here.’ I desperately wanted to do a Batman film – who doesn’t? And I wanted to do Wonder Woman. I was a Marvel kid growing up, but I was always DC-curious. And I see myself on the spectrum in between.”The Wonder Woman that Whedon refers to is the movie that he developed back in 2005, which became mired in development hell. But with the character appearing in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in 2016 and a standalone movie in 2017, we asked Whedon how he felt about someone else bringing a character he so loves to the big-screen.“I don’t care who she’s seeing now” he replied, feigning grief. “We don’t talk much. And I wish her well!”Then more seriously Whedon explained “I worked really hard on that movie and it meant a lot, but I don’t know if what I was trying to do would fit in with what their vision is. I’m excited to see it so I just want them to make it so I can see it!”Avengers: Age of Ultron hits UK screens this week and elsewhere in late April/early May, while our video review is below...

Chris Tilly is the Entertainment Editor for IGN in the UK and still wants to see Whedon's Wonder Woman. He can be found talking nonsense on both Twitter and MyIGN
