Joss Whedon says that the long-awaited sequel to his 2008 made-for-Internet hit “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog” is still in the works, reports Variety.com.

“The Avengers” writer-director hopes to get it into production “within the next year,” Whedon told the trade publication.

The Emmy-winning “Dr. Horrible” stars Neil Patrick Harris as the titular wannabe super-villain, Nathan Fillion as the smarmy superhero who continually defeats him, Felicia Day as the fetching do-gooder they both desire and Simon Helberg as the doctor’s sidekick Moist.

It will make its television premiere Oct. 9 when the CW airs the tunefully oddball 42-minute tale as the kickoff to the launch of its fall season.

One of the major obstacles to producing the sequel has been the fact that Whedon keeps “employing the people who will work on it” in other capacities, he told Variety.
