Joss Whedon is now considered one of televisions greatest minds. As the chief architect and creator of the then-WB network’s “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” he instantly achieved critical recognition for his work and the series became one of the most surprising successes of 1997.
Since then, he has continued to develop the Buffyverse mythology through the spin-off series “Angel” and also the proposed “Ripper” show, raking up additional credits for his space-western “Firefly.” Since then however, Whedon’s television credits have been scarce but he is now finally ready to return to the small screen with his chilling super-spy series “Dollhouse,” starring Eliza Dushku.
In the series, Dushku will play a Government puppet (otherwise known as a Doll) called Echo who is programmed with all the skills and talents required for her next mission Matrix-style. When the mission is complete, her memory is wiped and she prepares to embark on her next adventure. But wiping someone’s memory is a tricky thing, and over the course of the series Echo will slowly begin to develop some awareness.
Depending on the outcome of the writers strike that is bringing Hollywood to a standstill, “Dollhouse” will head in production in 2008
