While "The Avengers 2" won't be in theaters for several years, fans of writer-director Joss Whedon will get to see his take on the Bard next summer. 

The filmmaker's micro-budget adaptation of Shakespeare’s "Much Ado About Nothing" has gotten a release date. 

Roadside Attractions will be release the film in limited release on June 7, 2013. It will face competition from M. Night Shyamalan’s Will Smith sci-fi film "After Earth" and the comedy "The Internship," starring Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson.

Whedon famously shot the black and white comedy "Nothing" in just 12 days in and around his own home with a cast of Whedon regulars including Alexis Denisof, Amy Acker, Clark Gregg, Fran Kranz, and Nathan Fillion.
