Sources say there has been a growing feeling that Gunn could be reinstated, especially because Marvel and Disney have been unusually radio-silent on who could replace him since the firing. Production is slated to start at the top of 2019, and following Gunn’s removal from the film, it was thought that Marvel and Disney would need to move quickly to replace him, since the replacement would likely have to do some work on the script.
With Walt Disney chairman Bob Iger out on vacation currently, insiders believed a decision would not be made until he returned to work. Variety has reached out to Disney for comment on the cast’s statement.

It’d be great, imo, for the GotG franchize to have him back for the third. I want to see his full vision played out. I love 1 and 2, as a lot of folks did. Wasnt he also supposed to play a big role in future space-based MCU movies?

I hope they hire him back because his last film was a big pile of shit and any other choice would be a huge improvement.
