“This is the wrapping,” Gunn said on social media, captioning a post with a photo of the cover for the finished Holiday Special script. “The present in inside.” We love the touch of the script being penned by James “Long Elf” Gunn.
Things are getting pretty darn busy for Gunn who also directed DC’s The Suicide Squad and later this year will start filming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3.
As we previously reported here at MickeyBlog, Gunn is also shooting brand new footage for the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind roller coaster which is a brand new indoor coaster currently under construction at EPCOT.
