Gunn admitted this was the most fun he has had with making a movie, it will keep in the spirit of John Ostrander’s comic books and will be a sequel to his books.
In a behind the scenes video package, look at the movie, the movie will be a “gritty ’70s war pic combined with Gunn’s distinct comedic sensibilities and style.”
