Disney fires 'Guardians of the Galaxy' director James Gunn over 'indefensible' old tweets
Disney has severed ties with "Guardians of the Galaxy" director James Gunn after a series of old tweets referencing pedophilia and rape resurfaced online this week.
"The offensive attitudes and statements discovered on James' Twitter feed are indefensible and inconsistent with our studio's values, and we have severed our business relationship with him," Walt Disney Studios Chairman Alan Horn said in a statement to The Times on Friday.
