Disney has parted ways with director James Gunn after a number of what the studio called "indefensible" tweets he wrote years ago resurfaced.
"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," Alan Horn, chairman of The Walt Disney Studios, said in a statement obtained by CNN.
Gunn had come under fire in recent days after his comments, which made references to pedophilia and molestation, came to light.
On Thursday, Gunn acknowledged the attention his previous social media comments were getting in a series of tweets.

Despite a cast letter asking for James Gunn to be reinstated as the director of “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,” Walt Disney Studios is currently not planning on rehiring the filmmaker who it recently fired after a series of offensive tweets surfaced, according to multiple people familiar with the studio’s current thinking. The feeling within both Disney and Marvel is that the dozens of so-called jokes that Gunn made about pedophilia and rape are unacceptable in the #MeToo era and are not in line with Disney’s family-friendly image.
"the dozens of so-called jokes that Gunn made" You see how the media lies to you. I don't know for sure if this was a deliberate lie. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. But how the hell does reporting "dozens" come close to 10 THOUSAND + tweets James Gunn DELETED overnight? It doesn't. And people need to stop comparing Gunn to Lasseter. Gunn was fired for what Gunn did. Lasseter is leaving Disney at the end of the year. I'm sure that was negotiated because of the claims against him. Lasseter has a different contract with Disney than Gunn has with Disney. (emphasis mine)
The studio recognized that “Guardians” cast members such as Chris Pratt and Zoe Saldana stopped short of threatening to quit the series, but there is widespread belief that the actors will show up for future installments, regardless of their personal feelings about Gunn. For one thing, most are under contract and would face legal action if they opted out of a sequel. Still, the public endorsement of the director was notable for its vociferous support.
— Jeff Sneider (@TheInSneider) August 1, 2018I've been saying all week, both on air and off, that there's no way James Gunn is being rehired to direct GUARDIANS 3, no matter how many letters the cast signs... not in this climate. For me, this was the money paragraph in Variety's story... and it was about Johnny Depp! pic.twitter.com/51rEZakcDF

This is truly sick and depraved
If he‘d post this in public what is he doing in private?

James Gunn didn't just make a few abhorrent jokes here and there. Tonight, he deleted over 10,000 tweets and a blog where he praised pedophilia. Jokes or not, there should be ZERO tolerance for this sick, demented, evil behavior.— Peter Burman (@PeterMBurman) July 20, 2018

It’s so weird that a guy who gets busted with hundreds - if not thousands of vile tweets - is the guy some folks decide to defend from the “twitter mob.” Five minutes ago these same folks cost @therealroseanne her career over one dumb tweet. Unbelievable.— Chris Barron (@ChrisRBarron) July 21, 2018
Roseanne was immediately fired for one inappropriate comment. James Gunn was a cheerleader for her firing. Gunn had 10,000 tweets, and very peculiar blog posts about child actors. The difference here is if he is reinstated he will go back to working around child actors again.— Jack Posobiec ๐บ๐ธ (@JackPosobiec) July 30, 2018

Roseanne Barr has achieved more than you can possibly fathom. You could never hold a candle to her.
Disney fired @therealroseanne for her tweet. She apologized repeatedly for it and wasn’t hired back so it only seems fair to fire and not hire him too. We’re just tired of the double standard.— ๐บ๐ธLivin๐ฐ๐ปMi๐ฉ๐ป๐ปVida๐ฉ๐ป๐ซLatina๐ง๐ฝ♀️ (@HelicaLG) July 30, 2018

You people are sick. 10,000 tweets is not something to take lightly. This man has a problem. I wouldn't want him anywhere near children.
And furthermore, all of you vehemently defending James Gunn pedophilia tweets are showing us how Harvey Weinstein was accepted for 30 YEARS by the same people.— Global Awareness 101 (@Mononoke__Hime) July 31, 2018
James Gunn is no saint. You don't make jokes like that about children. That's a sick man showing us his true self.

Mike I'm in my early 40's. I have a boy and 3 girls. I've never ever made comments about kids or "jokes" about kids. I find it odd that whoever these celebrities are why would they make "jokes" about kids in any way? These "jokes" seem sexual explicit.— Oscar Garcia (@AdamatiumX74) July 21, 2018
I can't believe people are defending this creepy pervert who clearly felt pedophilia was acceptable. When caught he deleted over 10,000 PUBLIC TWEETS of his. He didn't delete JUST 1 oops I didn't mean to say that tweet. Those disgusting tweets sexualizing children was his normal. https://t.co/wNuF7Dr1aH— Global Awareness 101 (@Mononoke__Hime) July 20, 2018

UPDATE 8/4/18 at 3:00pm: I added info below.
Let me remind everybody, or should I say correct everybody. Roseanne Barr had her entire legacy destroyed by the Marxist Left because they were DEEPLY OFFENDED by ONE REPLY off the cuff TWEET about ONE PERSON she was politically demeaning in her reference. The Marxist Left pounced and labeled that ONE REPLY TWEET AS RACIST and outright called Roseanne Barr a racist and literally destroyed her 30 plus year legacy.
You guys on the Left are a piece of work for actually defending people who lately have had their older tweets exposed for pedophilia, and actual racism. You had the nerve to call 10,000 deleted tweets about pedophilia "jokes" referencing them as a few tweets, and dozens of racist tweets as "jokes". Yeah, we have your number. (emphasis mine)
Does Valerie Jarrett look of black descent to you pictured above? She was born in Iran, lived there for many years and is a Muslim. Roseanne Barr had her legacy destroyed because she INSULTED Obama's mentor Valerie Jarrett who groomed him.
