MOVIE NEWS – The Guardian of the Galaxy actor joined the defense of James Gunn, who was separated from the project after controversial messages.

They continue supporting it. With more than two weeks away from Disney, director James Gunn, famous for his participation in the Guardians of the Galaxy films, continues to receive the backing of the actors and actresses who were under his tutelage. This is the case of Kurt Russell.

As is known, Gunn was separated from the company after being released a series of tweets published more than ten years ago where he made “jokes” about paedophilia, rapes, AIDS and other sensitive issues.

Russell, who gives life to ‘Ego’ in the second film of the fiction, spoke recently with the press, and as expected, was consulted by James Gunn and the difficult situation that has been going on. The actor said that the subject is delicate and that it was aimed at the wrong people on such a sensitive issue.

“It’s sad, but now it’s part of our group and I understand it, although I think we’re getting too sensitive about the wrong people, you should realize that when you’re in that business as a comedian, writer, or whatever, you’re always tempting the limits and trying to find something, which was what led him to do something that the world loves, which is ‘Guardians of the Galaxy.’ He has a wonderful heart and a wonderful mind, I hope you have already forgiven him, “ said Russell about Gunn magazine Variety in an event organized by Netflix.

Recall that a few days ago, the cast of Guardians of the Galaxy Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, Zoe Saldana, Bradley Cooper, among others, made known their support to the film director.

Through a manifesto, the interpreters declare their love and unconditional support of the team towards the director.
