Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
In a surprise move , Disney rehired James Gunn to directGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3- but why ? Last summer , around the prison term of San Diego Comic - Con , a serial of Gunn ’s onetime tweet resurfaced that moderate messages about pedophilia and violation . Shortly thereafter , Walt Disney Studios chief Alan Hornfired Gunn fromGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 . It was understandably a lurid decision , one that was considered controversial despite what Gunn ’s tweets had said .
This decision was made without the input from Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige nor Disney CEO Bob Iger , but both executivesagreed with Horn ’s judgment . But just because Gunn was out as conductor , that did n’t mean his influence would n’t still be there . Later on , it was revealed thatGunn’sGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3script would still be useddespite the film director having been raise - though finding someone to supervene upon him doubtlessly would ’ve been the biggest hurdle . gratefully , that ’s no longer the case .

Disney has officiallyrehired James Gunn asGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 ’s manager , but many people may be wondering why ( and when ) they change their idea . It turns out , afterHorn and Gunn ’s initial meetinglast year , they meet several more times , and , according toDeadline , Horn was persuaded by Gunn ’s public apology as well as his handling of the intact situation - the firing and presumably not bad - talking Disney on social medium - for rehire the director .
Furthermore , there has been no evidence that Gunn ever partook in the perverted thing he talked about social media , which primarily came out of trying to shew himself while working with Troma Entertainment . In the death , Gunn take responsibility for his actions and carried that free weight with him , never render to defend himself . In fact , Gunn seemed to have quit using social media altogether after intelligence broke that he was fired . All of this go into Disney ’s decision to rehire Gunn to directGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 . - a decision that must not have been easy to make .
What ’s interesting is that Horn ’s decision to rehire Gunn was apparently made several months ago ; it just was n’t made public until now . In that span of time , Marvel must ’ve been keep on in the loop on at least some of the meetings seeing as they never met with another managing director for the theatrical role , and instead of trying to drive it through product in order tomeet a 2020 outlet date , Disney / Marvel at last putGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3on indefinite clasp . Now , it seems it ’ll release in the next few years , with Gunn back on control board .
