Entire Cast of Guardians of the Galaxy Wants James Gunn Rehired

In the wake of James Gunn’s firing by Disney from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 due to jokes about pedophilia and rape he made a decade ago, several of the stars from the film defended the director. This included Dave Bautista, Sean Gunn and Michael Rooker. Now, however, it seems the entire cast has announced their support of Gunn and want Disney to rehire him. Zoe Saldana posted a signed statement from the cast on Twitter, which includes Chris Pratt, Karen Gillan, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel and Pom Klementieff, in addition to the previously announced names.

The statement reads:
