James Gunn, the co-head of DC Studios, has faced criticism for promoting Marvel Cinematic Universe’s (MCU) upcoming film, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, ahead of its release. This criticism arose due to the unique situation that has been created with Gunn being hired by Warner Bros. to oversee DC Studios before the release of his final MCU film.

Gunn’s Response To Fan Complaint

After Gunn posted a photo of the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 cast on Instagram, a fan complained about DC hiring someone who promotes the competition. In response, Gunn stated that loyalty is not about brands or logos, but rather about commitments and collaborators. He further added that the last thing DC wants is someone who would turn their back on their previous work.

Gunn’s Commitment To Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3

Gunn has been committed to the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise for the past 12 years and has poured his heart and soul into creating a series of films. His commitment to completing Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is something that DC Studios knew about ahead of time.

Why DC Studios Is In Good Hands With James Gunn

James Gunn is known for being one of the more accessible creators on social media, frequently updating fans on project progress, debunking rumors, and engaging with fans. His loyalty to his commitments and collaborators is what DC Studios needs, and it may even inspire new talent to work with DC Studios in the future.

James Gunn may continue to face questions about his unique position with both Marvel and DC until the release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
