Director James Gunn Responds To Calls To Recast Chris Pratt Over Actor’s Public Christianity

Director James Gunn on Monday defended superstar actor Chris Pratt, after some left-wing fans called for Marvel to recast Pratt over his public Christianity, which was equated with homophobia.

Responding to a call on social media for the “Parks and Recreation” actor to be swapped out with actor Patrick Wilson in the upcoming “Guardian of the Galaxy Vol. 3,” Gunn said Pratt would “never” be replaced — but if he was, the whole team would “be going with him.”
