Joss Whedon considering more Dr. Horrible installments; soundtrack and DVD coming soon.



A few weeks ago, the Internet was set aflame by the release of the Web-only Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, the latest project to spring from the creative well of Joss Whedon's mind. The three-part series, about a supervillain (Neil Patrick Harris) dealing with his do-gooder nemesis and a girl he has a crush on, was almost just something to occupy Joss' time during the writers' strike, but has ended up being a hit.


In fact, the musical has been so successful that Whedon is considering blowing out the musical into a franchise. Whedon and company are mulling a sequel, says The New York Post, but given the popularity and the passion that went into the project, the news isn't a surprise.

Dr. Horrible is also headed to DVD sometime soon, complete with a boatload of extras, says MTV.com. Among the goodies planned is a commentary feature tentatively dubbed Commentary: The Musical! which will feature Whedon and others singing their parts.

"It'll be a literal commentary, with us as performers and creators singing about the things we were going through, and all of that made much sillier than it actually was," Whedon told MTV. "It is a musical based on our own opinions."

The team will also be seeking out potential inductees for the Evil League of Evil, and may ask fans to send in videos stating why they belong to the supervillain supergroup.

A soundtrack is also currently in the works.

Expect more details about the DVD and soundtrack releases soon. In the meantime, Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog is available for free streaming on Hulu.com and for download ($1.99 an episode) on iTunes.

Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, the popular 2008 musical web series starring Neil Patrick Harris as a lonely villain with a PhD in horribleness, may get a sequel in the not-so-distant future, according to co-creator Joss Whedon.

Whedon hopes to start work on the second Dr. Horrible series this summer, which is the soonest the writers and stars will be able to align their schedules.

“We are hard on it. It’s been a really tough year — couple of years — partially, I’m happy to say, because of work,” he said during an interview at SXSW.
