IGN spoke one-on-one with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige on Sunday about Disney’s recent rehiring of James Gunn to direct Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 … and whether Marvel really would have recast Dave Bautista in the role of Drax as the actor and vocal Gunn supporter had dared Disney to do.
Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn fired Gunn from Guardians Vol. 3 in July 2018 over controversial tweets the filmmaker posted years ago and Horn was the one who ultimately rehired Gunn last month after accepting his contrition.
