As of currently, James Gunn has no intentions to make any more Guardians of the Galaxy films, therefore this will be the final episode of the trilogy. However, it will not be just another film to look forward to. Gunn also took advantage of the opportunity to shoot a second project on site with the entire group.The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, which will premiere on Disney+ for the holidays, will see Star-Lord and the crew ring in the holidays in a unique fashion. Gunn has stated that he enjoys the Star Wars Holiday Special, which may have influenced his choice to do the same with the Guardians franchise.
The MCU's Star-Lord Will Always Be Chris Pratt
Chris Pratt's apparent membership in a certain church has sparked some recent debate. James Gunn has defended the actor, calling the claims "internet chatter" on social media.Despite any social media criticism, Gunn also stated that Pratt would always be the MCU's Star-Lord, and that he would not be recasting the part.
"For what?" Gunn responded to a Pratt critic who demanded the recasting. Because of your completely bogus, made-up beliefs about him?
For anything you heard about him from someone else that isn't true? Chris Pratt will never be replaced as Star-Lord, but if he is, we'll all be there with him chevalier."
"He isn't," Gunn said to someone who claimed Pratt was a member of a "homophobic" church. "I'm familiar with the church where he currently worships. Do you agree? (You don't, but you heard from someone who heard from someone who heard from someone where he goes to church, and you concluded, 'oh, okay, I'll believe this dreadful thing I heard online about this celebrity!')
