Strap in, kids! Here’s your first look at the 2013 SXSW Film Features Lineup: 109 films, including 69 world premieres, 14 North American and 5 United States premieres. Amazingly enough, 68 of these titles are from first-time filmmakers.

Highlights include Stephen Finnigan’s Hawking, Joss Whedon’s Much Ado About Nothing, John Sayles’ Go For Sisters, Jacob Vaughn’s Milo, Penny Lane’s Our Nixon, Zak Knutson & Joey Figueroa’s MILIUS, Ryan White’s Good Ol’ Freda, Sini Anderson’s The Punk Singer, Josh Johnson’s Rewind This!, and Bryan Poyser’s The Bounceback.

These movies join the previously announced, Opening Night film The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, Joe Swanberg’s Drinking Buddies, Harmony Korine’s Spring Breakers, Evil Dead, and Alex Winter’s Downloaded.

For those who had not yet heard, back when director Joss Whedon was making that little superhero flick The Avengers, he also made an even smaller movie with a bunch of his Whedonverse friends in only twelve days.

The movie is Much Ado About Nothing, an adaptation of the William Shakespeare classic set in modern times. Whedon made the movie through Bellwether Pictures, a micro-studio Whedon started with Kai Cole that’s dedicated to do-it-yourself style indie narratives for all forms of media.

Now this ultra low budget film has itself a release date to plan for. You can find out when you can see it and check out a full rundown of who’s in the movie and who they’re playing below now!

For Joss Whedon, 2012 has been one remarkable year. He was given the impossible task of putting egos in check for The Avengers and then he pulled Cabin in the Woods, which he co-produced and co-wrote, out of the vault and it was met with success. But he also directed an adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing in what seems like a matter of days and with a very limited budget. Whedon has just finished pushing his film at the Toronto International Film Festival and now he can find comfort in knowing that the public will be able to see his film.

THR has word that Lionsgate and Roadside has completed a deal that would allow them to distribute the film. Much Ado About Nothing is set in modern day Los Angeles with the cast consisting of actors and actresses familiar with Whedon’s style of work. Playing the roles of Beatrice and Benedick are Amy Acker and Alexis Denisof, respectively. Then you got Nathan Fillion (Firefly), Sean Maher (also Firefly), Clark Gregg (The Avengers), and more Whedon alum members taking on the remaining supporting roles.
