James Gunn Teases GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Appearance at Comic-Con
Director James Gunn loves to connect with his fans. He regularly does live Facebook Q&A’s with them and in the most recent one, he talked a little bit more about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, the possibility of a Nova Corps movie, and teased an appearance at San Diego Comic-Con.
Last year Marvel skipped out on the big event because they said they didn’t have anything to show. Well, there are no excuses this year! Doctor Strange and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 are ready to go and show off some footage if they want to. When asked if he was going to attend this year, Gunn teased:
"Am I going to San Diego Comic-Con?! That's a good question! You guys want me to go to San Diego Comic-Con? You'll have to see! I would like to go. That would be amazing, wouldn't it? I would like to come and see you all at San Diego Comic-Con and bring some friends along. That would be awful fun. That would be awful fun. I would really love to do that."
I’m sure he will, and it’s exciting to think that we’ll get our first look at the highly anticipated Guardians sequel this summer! Gunn went on to say the film is coming together well and also praised the actors:
"I don’t wanna tell you too much. I think the movie’s going great. I only have two weeks and two days left of shooting this film. I think the movie’s coming together really, really well. I think the cast has been fantastic. Every single actor that was in the first movie has gotten exponentially better. They all know their characters more deeply. Dave Bautista is absolutely killing it. Pom, who plays Mantis is killing it. Karen Gillan has had an amazing couple of weeks. She’s just been fantastic. So I think that there’s some really great stuff."
The at one point during the conversation, he was asked about the possibility of a Nova Corps movie and this was his reply:
"I think there is always a chance of a Nova movie. I don't think it's something I would do. But it's possible."
The Nova Corps aspect of the universe seems like it would be suited better as a Netflix series. That's something I'd personally like to eventually see. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is set to be released on May 5th, 2017.
