Filmmaker Joss Whedon to hold Q&A session at The Friends' Cafe, Bangor next week announcing new book "My Struggle"

 

Hold onto your lattes, Bangor!

Hollywood heavyweight filmmaker Joss Whedon is trading red carpets for coffee cups as he heads to The Friends’ Cafe in Bangor, ME on Wednesday, March 4th for an intimate reading of his provocative new book, My Struggle.

Locals are buzzing that the cult-favorite creator—known for his razor-sharp dialogue and blockbuster hits—is planning a cozy, up-close event that promises drama, wit, and maybe even a few behind-the-scenes bombshells. Insiders say the café’s normally mellow atmosphere will be transformed into a standing-room-only hotspot as fans flock for a glimpse of the famously enigmatic storyteller.

Staff at The Friends’ Cafe are keeping tight-lipped, but sources hint at specialty drinks, signed copies, and a Q&A session that could get very interesting.

One thing’s for sure: Bangor is about to have its most star-studded coffee break yet.
