Following the firing of director James Gunn by Disney after resurfaced tweets were shared on the internet, production was put on hold, with the cast and crew being told filming would be delayed indefinitely.
However, everything seems to have picked up again, as Chris Pratt has revealed that the sequel is being worked on and Gunn’s script will form the basis for the film.
“It’s off the chain, it’s so good,” Pratt said of the script to MTV news.
Questioned further about Gunn, the actor – promoting The Lego Movie 2 – said: “Well, I love James and I’m loyal to James. We’re gonna deliver the movie. We’re gonna give the fans what they deserve. I think it’s in the nature of the Guardians Of The Galaxy to get the job done, and that’s what we’re going to do.”
Who exactly will helm the upcoming Guardians film remains unknown. One fan favourite to take the position was Thor: Ragnarok’s Taika Waititi, who has since denied taking on the project.
Before then, Marvel fans have Avengers: Endgame to look forward to, which will star the Guardians. Find out everything you need to know about the film here.
