Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3 Is A Reminder We Still Need R-Rated James Gunn Movies
The way I see it, James Gunn has two main thematic modes: gleeful nihilist, and sappy idealist. It might seem like an odd pairing to some, but these two facets go together so well that they frequently blur into each other–like peanut butter and jelly. For the full James Gunn experience, you need them both.
But while the Guardians of the Galaxy movies have all the sappiness, their darker side isn’t really all that dark. Vol. 3 definitely moved the needle in the right direction on that imbalance with Rocket’s newly revealed backstory and some of the High Evolutionary’s other atrocities.

James Gunn Rules Out One Very High-Profile Actor For Superman Legacy
DC Studios boss James Gunn has shared new information on who he wants to play Superman in the upcoming Superman Legacy film that he is writing.

Superman Legacy will focus on a younger Clark Kent, so Pratt wouldn’t work. “It’s not Chris Pratt. If he was a few years younger, maybe.” Pratt recently revealed that he auditioned for numerous superhero roles over the years and got rejected for all of them until Gunn cast him as Star-Lord in the Guardians of the Galaxy series.
Gunn went on to discuss at a high level what he’s looking for in an actor. “The next Superman has to be someone who has all the humanity that Superman has but he’s also an alien,” Gunn said. “It’s gotta be somebody who has the kindness and the compassion that Superman has and be somebody who you want to give a hug.”
