Serenity to fly no more

Ah, Firefly, one of the greatest TV shows of all time. Cancelled before its time, but managed to live again in the movie Serenity. Joss Whedon sure can write a yarn. There have been the odd rumour here and there saying that there could be another Firefly movie. However, in an interview with MTV Mr Whedon closes the door on and sequel....at least for the moment.

"The rumors are there because people really wish it would happen," Whedon said.

[It’s an "improbable fantasy," Whedon said. Then again, "so was making ‘Serenity’ [given the cancellation of 'Firefly'], and so is half my career, which is why I never write it off."

"I’d do it in a heartbeat," Whedon said, "because I love those people so much." But that doesn’t change the fact that the rumors are not being circulated "by anyone who owns a studio," and "nobody’s knocking on our door."

"There’s been no movement," he said. "Those rumors are just rumors, and I don’t think they’re going to stop, no matter how many times I say, ‘No, it’s not happening.’ Because somebody will say, ‘He said yes. His eyes said yes. His nose said yes. There was a yes-iness about him.’ Because people want it."
