Per the Hollywood Reporter, Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3 is set to begin filming in 2020. This would be quite the surprise, given that director James Gunn still has The Suicide Squad to deal with, which the report does not mention. Should that film go into production by the fall of this year, pre-production for Guardians could begin by early 2020, but it would make for a tight schedule.

Gunn was announced to be returning to the director’s chair just last month, after his controversial ousting from the franchise following the resurfacing of old tweets containing jokes of rape and pedophilia. Given his involvement with the upcoming DC film and the nature of his departure, his return came as a bit of a shock, though many fans and the cast alike demanded it.
