Marvel’s scripts are always top secret, but Guardians of the Galaxy star Pom Klementieff has almost taken it to the next level by burying his Vol. 3″ screenplay in co-star Karen Gillan’s garden. Klementieff joined the Marvel franchise as Mantis in Part 2. After James Gunn was initially fired as director of Guardians 3 due to the scandalous jokes he made on Twitter in the past, the two actors met in private to read Gunn’s script.

“I came to Karen’s house and it was at a time when James Gunn was no longer supposed to be in the film.” – Klementieff. told IndieWire. “So we decided to read the script together and wept all the time.”

“We laughed at the same time and then we cried again,” Gillan added. “It was pretty emotional.”

“And then I got paranoid that someone would find the script. So I thought, “We should hide the script.” Maybe we should bury it in the garden,” Klementyev said. “I like to hide things and then I can’t find them. I’m like a squirrel. This is one of my problems.”

Gillan confirmed the revelation, saying, “She legitimately asked me to bury the Guardians of the Galaxy script in my garden. And I’m like, “What do you mean? Put it in a closet or something!”

Klementieff and Gillan joined their Guardians co-stars Chris Pratt, Bradley Cooper, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel, Sean Gunn and Michael Rooker. signing an open letter to Disney in July 2018, which urged the studio to reinstate Gunn as director of Vol. 3″. Neither cast wanted to make a sequel without a writer-director.

During this time, we have been encouraged by the outpouring of support from fans and members of the media who wanted James reinstated as Volume 3 director, as well as discouraged by those who are so easily fooled into believing in many outlandish conspiracy theories. Around him.”

“His story is not over yet – by no means,” the letter says about Gunn. “There is little due process in the court of public opinion. James is probably not the last good man to face trial. Given the growing political divide in this country, it’s safe to say that cases like this will continue, although we hope that Americans from across the political spectrum can tarnish their reputation and stop using the Mafia mentality as a weapon.”

Gunn was ultimately reinstated as director, although he agreed to write and direct the Warner Bros. movie in the meantime. and DC Suicide Squad. The upcoming Guardians 3 marks Gunn’s swansong in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as he moves to direct DC Studios, where he’s writing and directing the new Superman movie.
