- James Gunn, the writer-director for the box-office hit Superman, said in a recent interview he thought his career was over when Disney fired him in 2018 over resurfaced tweets. The day of his firing, it turns out, had a big impact on the way he viewed his career, and himself.
James Gunn is flying high right now. Superman, which he wrote and directed, has won two consecutive weeks at the box office, bringing in $235 million in its first 10 days.
