"Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2" director James Gunn seems to be pretty happy with the production process of the movie so far that he thought it would be a good idea to spread on the positive vibes by answering tons of questions from fans on his personal Twitter account.
One of the things he revealed recently was that the script is as good as finished. "I'll play with little things in the script until it's shot, but basically it's finished," he tweeted.
Unlike the original "Guardians of the Galaxy" film, which originated from a script written by Nicole Perlman, Gunn said that the sequel is his baby. "The script has been written solely by me," he assured.
When the director was asked if there was a translation to Groot's speech ('I am Groot'), Gunn said that "only Vin Diesel and I have the special Groot script with translations of what he's saying."
When another fan asked why Bradley Cooper, who plays Groot's pal Rocket Racoon does not have the same special script since Rocket understands Groot's language anyway, Gunn agreed: "Good point. I'll loop him in next time around."
One of the best things about the first movie was its catchy soundtrack. After all, music is an important factor in Star Lord's (Chris Pratt) life, and the last gift he received from his mother was a mix tape.
Gunn shared that the music for the sequel will be equally pleasing to the senses. "Awesome Mix Vol. 2 is set to go; our amazing music supervisor Dave Jordan got the rights to EVERY SONG I asked for!" he tweeted.
Incidentally, when asked who among the entire cast Gunn loves to work with the best, he candidly answered that it was leading man Pratt. "(He) and I have a (expletive) of a lot of fun together," he said.
As for the director's relationship with Marvel, Gunn said that it's pretty good. "They've always given me full freedom. We have an amazing relationship," he said. "I'm directing exactly the movie I want to direct. Some days I can hardly believe this is all real. I'm grateful."
But for now, Gunn is keen on making the best sequel there is for "Guardians of the Galaxy," and he is not yet thinking about the third installment to the franchise.
"I'm only focused on Vol. 2 right now. I don't know what I'm going to do afterwards. We'll see what I feel like then," he said.
