Joss Whedon Speaks on Production Shutdown and More

home title Posted by gossi on Oct 26th, 2008 | 2 comments home title
Joss Whedon posted an update at Whedonesque with regards to what’s going on with the show. Here are the biter points:

  • Steve DeKnight is off as consulting producer and replacing him is the incomparable Jane Espenson.
  • The character of November no longer exists, but actress Miracle Laurie has been given another role.
  • Reed Diamond has joined the cast as the head of security at the Dollhouse. His character’s name is Laurence Dominic.
  • The original pilot “Echo” is no longer episode 2. In fact it’s no longer an episode. In its place is “Gray Hour”.
  • Tim Minear is still scheduled to write a two parter that leads us into episode 13, which may or may not be the season finale depending on if FOX order the back nine or not.

    Steve DeKnight is off as consulting producer from episode 13

    my guess is, joss meant DeKnight is off as consulting producer as of now, not as of episode 13. See also the recent announcement that he is taking over showrunner duties for “Spartacus”.
