Earlier saw Disney reverse course and decide to rehire James Gunn back on Marvel and Guardians of the Galaxy 3, with the director now trending on Twitter.
Details include that Gunn will start filming on Guardians of the Galaxy 3 after he finishes DC’s Suicide Squad 2.
Following his dismissal last Summer, there was a public outcry of support in favor of bringing back James Gunn by fans and celebrities alike, including the Guardians cast, with Dave Bautista being the most vocal in support of his director.
The news of James Gunn returning follows the release of the Captain Marvel movie as well as yesterday’s new trailer and poster for The Avengers: Endgame.
Check out the James Gunn reactions:
