AceShowbiz - "Guardians of the Galaxy" director James Gunn was put under fire after a series of his old offensive tweets resurfaced online in 2018. Some of the tweets found him making a number of jokes about pedophilia and molestation. While Gunn has apologized for what he wrote in the past, Disney decided to fire him from the Marvel movie franchise.
However, cast members of "Guardians of the Galaxy" and fans did not agree with the network's decision, leading them to launch a petition to rehire the filmmaker. Even though the petition was signed by thousands, Disney still stood by its decision to fire Gunn. It didn't take too long for him to get a new job though, as he was later hired by Warner Bros. Pictures to write the sequel to "Suicide Squad".
