Disney says James Gunn will absolutely not be directing Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3
Sorry, folks, but Mickey’s put his big, yellow loafer down: James Gunn will not be directing Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3. Despite rumors of positive “back channel talks,” the overwhelming support of the Guardians cast, and what have no doubt been some intimidating glares from Dave Bautista, Disney has made it official that the wildly popular Marvel property will move forward with a different director at the helm. Variety reports the decision came after a meeting between Gunn and studio chairman Alan Horn, a meeting sources say was held only to “clear the air with Gunn.”
