Both Marvel fans and stars from Guardians of The Galaxy want James Gunn to return as director of the film.
Unfortunately for them, reports are saying that Disney won’t be bringing him back. Variety magazine says that despite all of the support, Disney has decided to part ways after tweets about pedophilia and rape from his past surfaced.
The report says, “The feeling with both Disney and Marvel is that the dozens of so-called jokes that Gunn made are unacceptable in the #MeToo era and not in line with Disney’s family-friendly image.” It was thought that Disney would meet with Gunn about reinstatement, but that looks to be just a rumor according to Variety.
