Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3

You may not remember, but Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 was originally supposed to be out by now: May 1, 2020, to be exact. But in 2018, director/writer James Gunn was fired from Disney for really bad old tweets about rape and pedophilia. And for Marvel’s galactic misfits, that firing threw everything out of whack.
For the rest of 2018, a complicated saga brewed about the Guardians 3. While the cast rallied behind their original director, Marvel had discussions about whether or not to use Gunn’s script, and who, if anyone, would replace him. The lack of a director caused production to be put on pause, while Gunn would be snatched up by Warner Bros. for The Suicide Squad and later Peacemaker. He’d become reinstated in 2019, but his full schedule kicked the Guardians further down Marvel’s release schedule. Now rejiggered to be set after the events of Thor: Love & Thunder and with Will Poulter’s Adam Warlock among the cast, Guardians 3 is now expected to release on May 5, 2023.
