Last week it was announced that Edgar Wright was walking from Ant-Man, a movie he had been attached to for years. The unexpected breakup between Wright and Marvel studios caught fans by surprise. Now Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn is not taking has released to letter to his friends, Wright and Marvel.
Marvel’s Ant-Man may have two Ant-Men, but no director. Edgar Wright has left the film that he was working on since 2006. The studio has not announced a replacement but they did state that the change in the directors will not affect the July 17, 2015.
Speaking of other directors, Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn opened up about Wright’s breakup with Marvel, writing on his Facebook:
“Sometimes you have friends in a relationship. You love each of them dearly as individuals and think they're amazing people. When they talk to you about their troubles, you do everything you can to support them, to keep them together, because if you love them both so much doesn't it make sense they should love each other? But little by little you realize, at heart, they aren't meant to be together - not because there's anything wrong with either of them, but they just don't have personalities that mesh in a comfortable way. They don't make each other happy. Although it's sad to see them split, when they do, you're surprisingly relieved, and excited to see where their lives take them next.
“It's easy to try to make one party ‘right’ and another party ‘wrong’ when a breakup happens, but it often isn't that simple. Or perhaps it's even more simple than that--not everyone belongs in a relationship together. It doesn't mean they're not wonderful people.
“And that's true of both Edgar Wright and Marvel. One of them isn't a person, but I think you get what I mean.”
