Joss Whedon - © Glenn Harris / PhotorazziJoss, the creator of 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' and 'Angel', claims his decision is due to creative differences.On his website, whedonesque.com, he wrote: "I had a take on the film that, well, nobody liked."The writer was producing a feature-length 'Wonder Woman' for Warner Bros. Pictures and Silver Pictures but always thought the process would be difficult.He added: "We all just saw different movies, and at the price range this kind of movie hangs in, that's never gonna work. It happens all the time."I don't think any of us expected it to happen this time, but it did. Everybody knows how long I was taking, what a struggle the script was for me, and though I felt good about what I was coming up with, it was never gonna be simple."Joss came on board the project in March 2005 and was paid around $3 million to develop and write the adaptation, which Joel Silver is producing.Although he has quit 'Wonder Woman' Joss is also currently working on 'Goners', a thriller he is reported to be directing for Universal Pictures and is overseeing a new 'Buffy' storyline for Dark Horse Comics.(C) BANG Media International
