While James Gunn may not be returning to the director’s chair for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, his personal stamp may still be left on the eventual sequel. Sean Gunn, brother of James, and the Gilmore Girls actor who portrays Kraglin in the Guardians films as well as performing the role of Rocket on-set claimed that Disney intends to use James Gunn’s original script.
Speaking to Tulsa World, Sean Gunn had this to say regarding the threequel, which has since halted production after the firing of James Gunn over old, inappropriate tweets:
“I don’t really know yet what’s going on with ‘Guardians 3.’ I know that Disney still wants to make the movie. I know that they have every intention of using the script that my brother wrote. Obviously, that was a very unfortunate situation for everybody, most of all him, but I am also somebody who had been preparing to spend half a year making that movie and now that’s up in the air.”
