敵人的敵人就係朋友! 《銀河守護隊》編導 James Gunn轉投DC擔任編劇
敵人的敵人就係朋友!《銀河》系列編導 James Gunn轉投DC擔任《自殺特攻隊2》編劇
《Guardians of the Galaxy》由James Gunn一手創造
有不少的影迷對於由James Gunn所執導的《Guardians of the Galaxy》系列作品感到不錯,不但有嶄新的拍攝手法,令《Galaxy》的電影有別其他的Marvel電影,同時亦為影迷帶來不同的視覺感官。
《Guardians of the Galaxy 3》去向不明
可是自James被Disney解僱後,Marvel Studio一直都嘗試各種方法,希望能讓James重返,惜不果,最終《Guardians of the Galaxy 3》將會由新任的導演接手,但現時官方仍未決定會否繼續採用James的劇本, 若然不獲採用的話,影迷深怕與之前的劇情不搭,從而對電影感到失望。
不雅言論涉及孌童癖和強姦
Disney曾發怒即解僱James Gunn,全因The Daily Caller將James十年前於Twitter上所發表的玩笑找了出來,而當中卻涉及孌童癖和強姦,言論一出後,旋即令網友批評,雖然James其後已承認多年前所犯下無知的過錯和即時道歉,但仍難平息風波。

1. Many people who have followed my career know when I started, I viewed myself as a provocateur, making movies and telling jokes that were outrageous and taboo. As I have discussed publicly many times, as I’ve developed as a person, so has my work and my humor.

影迷、演員發聲撐James
解僱消息傳出後可謂震驚整個業界,有不少網友均表示James只是開玩笑,罪不致死,而Twiiter上亦有大量的支持者發起請願,當中亦有《Guardians of the Galaxy》的演員一同參與和發表意見。
“Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters. Let every person be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.”

It’s been a challenging weekend I’m not gonna lie. I’m pausing myself to take everything in before I speak out of term. I just want everyone to know I love ALL members of my GOTG family. Always will.

I will have more to say but for right now all I will say is this..@JamesGunn is one of the most loving,caring,good natured people I have ever met. He’s gentle and kind and cares deeply for people and animals. He’s made mistakes. We all have. Im NOT ok with what’s happening to him

James Gunn 編寫《Suicide Squad2》
相隔兩個月,有關James的去向終於傳出。根據外國媒體報道,DC和Warner Bros.有意招攬James入旗下,並將由他去編寫《Suicide Squad2》的劇本,該個消息得到DC的證實,同時傳出,James亦將成為《Suicide Squad2》的導演一職,目前雙方已進入簽約儀式。
「Drax」有意跟James轉投?!
消息傳出後,十分支持James的《Guardians of the Galaxy》演員Dave Bautista (即飾演「Drax」),便在自家的Twitter 上表明支持,並問「Where do I sign up!」難道他也有意跟James轉投DC,加入《Suicide Squad2》? 之不過,《Guardians of the Galaxy》和《Suicide Squad》兩部電影確實是有很多的共通點,至於《Suicide Squad2》會否如上部一樣成為爛片,大家不妨拭目以待吧!
