Release Date: TBA

In October, Joss Whedon confirmed that his next project will be a "historical fiction slash horror movie about a time when the world was going insane, World War II", which he is currently in the process of writing.

No word yet on the cast or size of the project, but Whedon has implied it will likely have parallels to contemporary U.S. politics, namely the rise of Donald Trump.

It's Whedon, so you can expect a few of his usual collaborators to come along for the ride, and he'll probably build up an awesome supporting hero only to kill them off half-way. Nathan Fillion as a quip-happy American General, perhaps?
