'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3' production stalled?

The news of Hollywood director James Gunn being fired from his project 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3' has caused a flurry in the industry, especially amongst the cast and crew. His firing is even said to have temporarily put the production of 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3' on hold. According to The Hollywood Reporter, a small group of crew members who were preparing for the pre-production of the Marvel film have been told that they are free to look for other work. The latest development comes a month after Gunn's firing. He was let go as the director by Disney when old tweets - which he shared nearly a decade ago - on controversial topics like pedophilia and rape resurfaced. However, the entire 'Guardians of the Galaxy' cast -including Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel- extended their support and asked for Gunn to be reinstated as 'Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 3' director. The official release date of the film is yet to be revealed.
