Last year, Marvel director James Gunn was fired by Disney after a series of problematic tweets resurfaced. Fans signed a petition to bring them back and Guardian star Dave Bautista was particularly vocal about his resentment towards Disney for their decision to fire Gunn.

Last month, Disney made the decision to rehire the director and fans and cast members are delighted to learn that his original script will be being used. Among these excited fans is Karen Gillan, who plays Nebula in the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy.

“His personality, the tone of those movies, I can only describe as James’ personality,” she said. “It’s his sense of humor, his writing, his taste in music. These characters are extensions of him. It’s a really personal project for him.”

She added: “It definitely wouldn’t have been the same version of Guardians.”

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is pegged for a 2020 release date.

During his appearance at the premiere of Avengers: Endgame, Chris Pratt, who portrays Star-Lord in Marvel Cinematic Universe, was asked to comment Disney’s decision to rehire Gunn and said that he thinks this was “the right move” and that he was “proud” of the studio.

“I was so thrilled, so excited,” Pratt responded. “I think it’s the right move, I really stand behind it. I’m really proud of Disney for hiring James back and ultimately thrilled for not only us but also for the fans. I think it’s going to wrap up the trilogy in the best way.”

Disney decided to fire James Gunn, who directed the first two Guardians of the Galaxy movies, in July 2018 after decade-old tweets with offensive jokes written by the 52-year-old director surfaced online. Gunn’s firing didn’t sit well with Guardians of the Galaxy cast, who released a joint statement supporting him and the decision was also criticized by a significant number of industry’s members and media outlets.

The studio ended up having a change of hearts and rehired Gunn as Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. director in March. The movie is still to enter production and could be expected in theaters at some point in 2021.

It turns out that there was some truth in these reports since Gunn is close to taking over the directorial duties on the project, according to Deadline. The sequel to 2016’s Suicide Squad is scheduled for release on August 6th, 2021.

The original Suicide Squad movie followed a group of villains – Deadshot, Harley Quinn, the Joker, Captain Boomerang and Killer Croc – as they are forced to use their skills to help humanity for a change and save the world from impending disaster. While the movie ended up being slammed by the critics, it was a big hit at the box office and prompted Warner Bros. to consider a sequel.

While Suicide Squad 2 has been in the works for some time now, we didn’t receive plenty of news about the project besides Gunn’s involvement. There are rumors, however, that the movie will focus on an entirely different lineup of characters, and that actors from the original won’t reprise their roles.

James Gunn is best known for his involvement in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and his directorial and writing efforts on blockbuster hits Guardians of the Galaxy and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. Marvel Studios, however, decided to fire Gunn due to his controversial tweets last year and Warner Bros. immediately jumped on the opportunity to involve him with their DC projects.

Gunn directed Guardians of the Galaxy and has been most recently working on a new horror film titled BrightBurn. The movie was planned to be released November 30 this year but has now been pushed all the way back to May 23, 2019.

BrightBurn’s release date has been taken by another horror movie called The Possession of Hannah Grace. The placement feature is directed by Diederik Van Roojen and the IMDB description of the movie reads: “When a cop who is just out of rehab takes the graveyard shift in a city hospital morgue, she faces a series of bizarre, violent events caused by an evil entity in one of the corpses.”

The movie delay follows a string of back luck for Gunn. He was fired from Disney earlier this year after they discovered old tweets where he made jokes about sensitive topics. The star publicly apologized, claiming he deeply regrets the jokes and is a “very, very different” person now. Unfortunately, he has not been rehired since apologizing.

It was recently confirmed by his brother, however, that James’ scripts will still be used for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3.

Ryan Reynolds starred as Deadpool in the 2016 feature with the eponymous title. He also recently starred again in the 2018 sequel, which fans are describing as hilarious and better than the original in every aspect. The movie is currently rated a respectable 8.1/10 on IMDB.

James Gunn seemed to be among those who rated the movie and tweeted last weekend:

“Yesterday I finally saw Deadpool 2, which I loved, and also the brilliant Revenge. Two completely different, fantastic films – cinema’s alive!”

Ryan Reynolds saw the tweet and replied: “Thank you James! Crossover?”

Gunn followed up with a “Yes, please.”

Although the tone was light and teasing, we’re hoping that it could in fact be a possibility. In 2019, Disney and Fox are due to merge, meaning that Deadpool and the rest of the X-Men films will join the Guardians of the Galaxy family franchise.

We’re not saying a Deadpool and Guardians crossover is guaranteed, but it could happen and that’s definitely something.

First Groot is dead. Baby Groot is his son.

Fans aren’t sure how to take the news. We thought that Baby Groot was something of a reincarnation of First Groot and so we never mourned First Groot properly. Rewatching the first movie will now be tainted with this new knowledge.

Can we not just pretend that it’s still the same Groot? According to James Gunn, character revivals in movies takes away from the story. Groot died in Guardians of the Galaxy in a beautiful moment of self-sacrifice. To revive Groot just because the character is popular, according to Gunn, would detract from his meaningful death. A character quite reasonably cannot survive being exploded into a thousand pieces. Well, thanks for clearing that up, we suppose.
