Joss Whedon est un producteur, réalisateur et scénariste américain né le 23 juin 1964 à New York. Il est le créateur des séries télévisées Buffy contre les vampires, Angel, Firefly, Dollhouse et Marvel : Les Agents du SHIELD, et a fondé la société Mutant Enemy. Il est également le réalisateur des films Avengers et Avengers : L'Ère d'Ultron, qui font tous deux partie des dix plus grands succès commerciaux de l'histoire du cinéma, ainsi que le scénariste de plusieurs comics.

Le travail de Whedon se caractérise par son humour pince-sans-rire et autoréférentiel et met l'accent sur les métaphores et le second degré. Il aborde régulièrement les thèmes du féminisme, de l'antiautoritarisme, de l'existentialisme et du sacrifice de soi. L'histoire est pour lui au service des personnages et ce sont les parcours et l'évolution de ceux-ci qui se trouvent au centre de ses œuvres. Wikipedia

Okay. Great. Stop calling.”
