James Gunn American Film Director
Redemption and second chances have long been
superhero movie staples, and today it looks like
life has imitated art. Ive learned that Disney
has reinstated James Gunn as the writer-director
of Guardians of the Galaxy 3, and Ive confirmed
it with Marvel and Gunns camp. The decision to
rehire Gunn he was fired last July by Disney
after alt-right journalists made public a
fusillade of decade old social media missives
that made light of pedophilia and rape was one
that was mulled and actually made months ago,
following conversations with Disney studio
leadership and the team at Marvel Studios.

Why the change of heart? After the firing, Walt
Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn met with Gunn
on multiple occasions to discuss the situation.
Persuaded by Gunns public apology and his
handling of the situation after, Horn decided to
reverse course and reinstate Gunn. The social
media messages were indefensible, but the
filmmaker never did anything but blame himself
for poor judgment displayed at a time when he was
emerging from the Troma film factory and
attempting to be a provocateur. There were no
reports that Gunn ever engaged in the behavior he
lampooned. Unlike the defensive posture exhibited
by Kevin Hart that led him to skip hosting the
Oscars, Gunn fell on his sword early and often
and never lashed out at Disney.

Guardians of the Galaxy 3 James Gunn
Gunns return to Guardians of the Galaxy 3 got
complicated when he signed on to write and direct
the Suicide Squad sequel for Warner Bros and DC.
Marvel Studios has agreed to commence production
on Guardians of the Galaxy 3 after Gunn completes
Suicide Squad 2. Making the whole thing easier
though was the fact that Marvel Studios never met
with or considered any other director for
Guardians of the Galaxy 3, despite speculation
that Thor Ragnarok helmer Taika Waititi and Vice
helmer Adam McKay were in the mix.
