Avengers: Infinity War will be Marvel's biggest film to date, but the film isn't just bringing back its many MCU stars – James Gunn is also working on the project.
The Guardians of the Galaxy director has revealed that he's an executive producer on the Anthony and Joe Russo-directed film.
And it stands to reason, as most of the cast of his upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 are returning for the third Avengers movie.
"I've been working hard with the Russo brothers, with the Marvel guys, with Kevin Feige, to make sure that any of the characters that I'm involved with, that are in that movie are well taken care of and are as funny as they should be, and is are as honest and truthful as they should be," Gunn said during a Facebook Live event (via CinemaBlend).
"So I've been dealing with them all the time. I've been talking to the actors on set every single day as we go through production, and it's been a great experience so far."
