captainhammerIf you're a fan of Joss Whedon or Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, then chances are you've known that a sequel would be coming for some time now.  Joss confirmed that himself and the rest of the creative team were working on a sequel back in August and now Nathan Fillion has let slip to MTV News that the process is continuing to come along, and there's even a title.

"There are plans.  The media for the sequel has not yet been decided, but there is a title." Naturally Fillion wasn't about to reveal that title, but he did also confirm that along with the writing of the script, at least a song or two had also been written.

"Joss, I was talking to him right before we won the Emmy," said Fillion. "He said that he's finished writing a song or two. He told me a couple of verses to the song."

There's still no timeframe for when fans might get to see Fillion and Neil Patrick Harris take on the roles of Captain Hammer and his arch-nemesis Dr. Horrible for the second time, and the lack or a decision on the media outlet for the project certainly doesn't help.  Whedon has said in the past that he wasn't certain if the multi-episode miniseries format was the best choice for online audiences, or if another venue, including a movie, was a better way to go.  In August, he again mentioned that a venue hadn't been decided on, and Fillion also specifically mentioned that the media hasn't yet been decided. So while I'm all for getting it written and ready to go, let's decide on a venue already!!  Seriously, I can't wait for this sequel and it won't matter if its in the form of a movie, multi-episode miniseries format online, a direct to DVD, or even from some strange Russian site that ends up infecting my computer while I watch the show.  As long as I get to see it, I'm happy! Bring on Dr. Horrible the sequel!!

      You know, I was never a huge Whedon fan until last year. I saw Dr. Horrible and absolutely loved it! I watched Firefly on DVD and fell in love with it too. And then Dollhouse. He does have quite a talent and I’m definitely becoming a fan. Not a worshiper yet, just a fan. ;)
