"We fully support James Gunn."
Those five words are homemade mom sex videosthe first you read in an open letter to Disney, a letter signed by every starring cast member in Guardians of the Galaxy. That's Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel, Pom Klementieff, and Michael Rooker, plus Gunn's brother, Sean.

"Each of us looks forward to working with our friend James again in the future," the letter reads. "His story isn't over -- not by a long shot."
Here's the full text, posted on Pratt's personal Instagram. The letter is accompanied by the following note from Pratt:
"Although I don’t support James Gunn’s inappropriate jokes from years ago, he is a good man. I’d personally love to see him reinstated as director of Volume 3. If you please, read the following statement- signed by our entire cast."

The letter goes on to rail against the circumstances that led to Gunn's dismissal. Disney let the director go after deeply offensive, years-old tweets containing a younger Gunn's flip jokes about pedophilia resurfaced.
It was, as the letter describes, an intentional character assassination. Gunn acknowledged his bad behavior and apologized for it years ago, in the early days of his relationship with Disney. The sudden appearance of a "James Gunn is bad and should be fired" narrative came from the darker corners of the alt-right, from shady figures like Mike Cernovich.
"There is little due process in the court of public opinion. James is likely not the last good person to be put on trial," the letter reads. "Given the growing political divide in this country, it's safe to say instances like this will continue, although we hope Americans from across the political spectrum can ease up on the character assassinations and stop weaponizing mob mentality."
Strong words from a cast of bona fide superstars. It's been radio silence from the studio since Gunn was fired, but you have to think a message like this will compel some kind of response.
Your move, Disney.
