Surprise! 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3' Production Has Been Delayed
Disney and Marvel are currently trying to regroup on the project.
The small group of workers during pre-production have been dismissed, and can start looking for other work in the time being. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 was going to be directed by James Gunn before his abrupt firing. Full pre-production mode was expected to happen in the fall. It also looks like Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn is staying strong on not letting Gunn back.
Disney and Marvel are now in a search for a director. According to earlier reports Disney was waiting for an A lister to come along. Should be interesting to see who would want to take on this project in a post-Gunn Guardians world.
This is one of Disney's most popular franchises, and it looks like they need some time to regroup.
Disney had no comment when it was announced that the production had been delayed.
