A report from Variety indicates that Disney is unlikely to rehire Gunn, despite the support he’s received since being fired after old tweets about pedophilia and trans-misogyny surfaced. The report sources “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 report states.

This comes after the outlet’s report that Disney was considering meeting with Gunn to discuss his possible reinstatement.

Disney is also facing a crisis over replacing Gunn in the very near future, with filming set to begin in 2019. Gunn wrote the script for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 already, and it’s likely that Disney would choose to get someone else to pen a new version so that they could sever the relationship with Gunn altogether.

On Monday, the cast of the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise revealed their united front on the ordeal, issuing a statement signed by every major player across both films, including Chris Pratt and Zoe Saldana.

Born in Passaic, New Jersey, she grew up in Jackson Heights, Queens, New York. A tragedy had the family move to the Dominican Republic where her father was from. She soon found herself back in New York where in 1995 she performed in a theater group in Brooklyn.  She later moved on to roles on television and then on to the big screen. She is married to Italian artist Marco Perego, who adopted her surname when they married, breaking the wedding tradition of just the wife taking the surname of the husband. Her name is Zoe Saldana-Perego. His name is Marco Perego-Saldana. Together they have twin sons.

This 38th birthday is bittersweet for her.  It is Father’s Day in the Unites States, a day she cannot celebrate with her father because her dad died in a car crash when she was 9. A memory cruelly relived today and darkened by another tragedy because her Star Trek co-star Anton Yelchin had a freak accident with his car on his property yesterday on June 18. He was pronounced dead today at the age of 27. The talented young Mr. Yelchin portrayed Pavel Chekov in the new series of Star Trek films.

Saldana and Yelchin can be seen together in the latest installment of Star Trek, Star Trek Beyond when it premieres next month on July 22, 2016.

Incidentally Zoe’s name in the Greek language means Life. May she live long, and prosper.
