Joss Whedon is turning 53 today. He began working in film and television as a writer. He did the screenplays for Alien: Resurrection and a certain 1992 vampire film, was a script doctor for movies like Speed and Twister, and worked on series like Roseanne and Parenthood. In 1997, The WB Network began airing a series he created, which bore the same title as the 1992 vampire film he had scripted.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer put Whedon on the industry map. In the next decade he created several TV series. Angel, a spinoff from Buffy, was fairly successful, but Firefly and Dollhouse were short-lived. Serenity, the feature film follow-up to Firefly, was a terrific action film that no one watched, while the internet series Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog found a supportive audience.
In recent years, Whedon has put in a lot of time on the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as the director and writer for the Avengers films and the co-creator of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. He also did a personal project, a film of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing. He is now working on projects for the DC Extended Universe—he is supervising post-production for the upcoming Justice League, and there are reports of a Batgirl movie.
