Joss Whedon has adapted and directed a modern version of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. Shakespeare and Whedon, this could be a good combination.
I'm only familiar with a few members of the cast. Nathan Fillion plays Dogberry. I would have loved to see him as Benedick, but we can't have everything we want. I'm sure he'll be great as Dogberry.
The other actors I've heard of are Amy Acker, who plays Beatrice, and Sean Maher, who plays Don John. Amy played Nova/Astrid in the last episode of Once Upon a Time, and Sean played Simon on Firefly.
It hasn't been announced when this will be released, or even if it will be a general release.
I'm so excited to see it.
Me too!!! I love this play and I love me some Joss!
