A third-generation Hollywood writer, Whedon started out as a story editor on
Roseanne
before penning the screenplay for the film
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
in 1992. After reportedly script-doctoring big-budget blockbusters such as
Speed
and
Twister
, this geeky scribe resurrected his bloodsucking
Buffy
franchise by transforming it into a prime-time series in 1997 and creating the spin-off
Angel
two years later. As the shows' creator, writer, producer and, in the case of a musical episode, songwriter, Whedon maintained complete creative control over his striking blend of dark fantasy and campy humor. He took another one of his creations,
Firefly
, on the opposite journey, turning the short-lived series into the movie
Serenity
in 2005.
