Roseanne Barr Says Joss Whedon Will Have to Come to Her For Avengers 2

In her first-ever appearance at San Diego Comic Con International, former U.S. Presidential candidate and sitcom star Roseanne Barr talked with reporters after appearing at the TV Land Legends of Comedy panel earlier today.Among the topics of conversation, of course, was onetime Roseanne writer and current Marvel Studios maven Joss Whedon.”I’m not surprised by his success,” Barr said of Joss Whedon, when asked about her former protege and the current king of Comic-Con. “I think he’s got a great mind, he can see far ahead and he has real good visual ideas and he can tell a story really well. I’m so proud of finding him and giving him his first job when he was only 19–and I hired him with no script!”Asked whether she had asked Whedon for a part in Marvel’s as-yet-untitled Avengers sequel, Barr said, “No, I didn’t. I think that Joss will have to discover me on his own.”The thirty-nine (by her count)-year-old actress also reminded the audience that she will be playing Kraang Prime on Nickelodeon’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles soon, and denied rumors flying around Hollywood that she’s got a “ten-ninety deal” akin to what Charlie Sheen had with Anger Management set up at NBC.
