Fans were thrown off guard seeing the new actors added to the cast including John Cena, Pete Davidson, Sean Gunn, Idris Elba, Michael Rooker, and fellow Marvel director Taika Waititi.

James Gunn who had previously directed Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 1 and Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 2 was fired by Disney following a string of tweets he had tweeted on Twitter 10 years back which offended Disney’s policies. It left the fate of Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 3 hanging around for a while. During this time, James Gunn was hired to direct the Suicide Squad, the sequel to Suicide Squad.Suicide Squad was praised for its amazing portrayal of the comic book characters, especially Harley Quinn played by Margot Robbie. The movie even won an Academy Award for Best Makeup and Hairstyling.
Margot Robbie, Viola Davis, Joel Kinnaman, Jai Courtney, Storm Reid are reprising their role from the first movie. But fans are excited over the addition of these new actors to the cast. However, Will Smith and Jared Leto, who portrayed Deadshot and The Joker, respectively in the previous movie are not in this sequel. James Gunn will be back to direct Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 3 too. His announcement has surely made fans busy spinning fan theories, creating fan art and worrying over the fate of their favorite characters because of his caption.
