Director James Gunn Removed From “Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3” Over Pedo Tweets

James Gunn

According to THR, Gunn’s old tweets were found by conservative Twitter users, possibly in retaliation for his recent tweets against Trump.

In an official statement, Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn wrote

The offensive attitudes and statements discovered on James’ Twitter feed are indefensible and inconsistent with our studio’s values, and we have severed our business relationship with him.

He deleted over 10,000 related tweets, and accidentally tweeted out a search for his own tweets.

James Gunn explains his old tweets.

My words of nearly a decade ago were, at the time, totally failed and unfortunate efforts to be provocative. I have regretted them for many years since — not just because they were stupid, not at all funny, wildly insensitive, and certainly not provocative like I had hoped, but also because they don’t reflect the person I am today or have been for some time.

Regardless of how much time has passed, I understand and accept the business decisions taken today. Even these many years later, I take full responsibility for the way I conducted myself then. All I can do now, beyond offering my sincere and heartfelt regret, is to be the best human being I can be: accepting, understanding, committed to equality, and far more thoughtful about my public statements and my obligations to our public discourse. To everyone inside my industry and beyond, I again offer my deepest apologies. Love to all.
