'Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog 2' News, Spoilers: Sequel to popular Joss Whedon Internet mini-series in the works with 'many song written'

Joss Whedon's incredibly popular web mini-series Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog came into our lives a few years back and then disappeared without a notion of expansion on the story. That is, until this week when Jed Whedon (brother of Josh) told Entertainment Weekly that the next chapter of the web-series starring Neil Patrick Harris as a loveable, evil villain is currently in the works!

"We know we have spoken publicly about a sequel in the near distance and our passion to create it, and I promise we have not been insincere," composer Jed Whedon explained. "Horrible is still one of our favorite creations by humans who were also us. We have many songs written and the plot outlined, but needless to say, we've been busy. Joss has had a hectic couple of years and is in the middle of the busiest year of his life, as is Zack and as are we. Also the actors have other things they're acting in, I think. So the future is uncertain, our passion remains. DH2 will exist, in some format or another, at some point in the future. Unfortunately, the when is still unclear."

So it looks like Jed, Joss and the rest of the crew are simply too busy with bigger projects like The Avengers 2: Age of Ultron and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to really focus on the Dr. Horrible sequel, but they hope that it will work out.
