Dr. Horrible Sequel Is Getting Closer!

Who doesn't want more of the sing-along blog?

By Tony 'G-Man' Guerrero  |  Nov. 4, 2009

The Dr. Horrible sequel is moving forward.  It's funny that I came across this today.  I just played the Freeze Ray song for my daughter this morning (I showed her that Neil Patrick Harris was Dr. Horrible and the Music Meister in Brave And The Bold).  Shortly after Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog aired online, Joss Whedon stated that a sequel was already in the works.
 
MTV has recently spoken with Nathan Fillion who gave an update on the sequel: 

  
The Sing-Along blog even won an Emmy (see Dr. Horrible's video on that HERE).  Fillion mentions that:

The media for the sequel has not yet been decided, but there is a title.
 
[Joss] said he's finished writing a song or two. He told me a couple of verses to the song.
 
It's going to be great. I know a bunch of cast members of Dr. Horrible who would love to get back into it.

 Fillion plays Captain Hammer, the nemesis of Dr. Horrible.  If you haven't already seen it, here's that Death Ray song (so you too can have it stuck in your head today):
  
Let's hope this sequel happens really really fast.

That's awesome. Best thing to come out of the writer's strike.

i dont think a sequel is a good idea. 
 
i like the way it ended and cant see what they could do that isnt forced because fans wanted it. oh well... maybe im wrong.

I think it is a really cool idea. I really enjoyed the first one. Under I posted a link if anyone wants to see it to get the full jist of it.

AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! XD


I don't know what they'd do for a sequel or if it will be any good, but I will probably love it because it's Dr. Horrible. And because the first one was probably one of the best things to happen in my life. Okay, maybe not...but close!

best thing I have ever heard!

I did think the first one could have had a better resolution, so I'm looking forward to this. Hopefully Doc will find love, or at least kill Captain Hammer.
