Fans of GOTG Vol. 2 cannot wait for the movie to be released. That will happen May 7, 2017, but until then, everyone wants to see the trailer. Director James Gunn is aware of fans’ requirements, and took to Facebook to explain the “trailer issue”.
The GOTG director wrote on Facebook that he’s excited that so many people are waiting for the trailer, but he can’t do anything; everything has been scheduled already. The trailer is not coming soon. Gunn’s Facebook statement says:
I appreciate and am grateful that so many of you want to see the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 trailer. I am fortunate that so many folks are interested in our film.
However, the schedule for the trailers has been decided upon, and no matter how many times you request on social media that they come out faster – which has lately been happening dozens of times a day – what is done is done.
Some people are rude to James Gunn on social media
And, yes, usually this is just people being enthusiastic and begging for the trailer, or telling me how they’re going to die if they don’t get it, or simply asking when it’s going to come out even though I can’t answer.
Gunn appreciates the interest for the trailer, however, he is pissed off by rude commentaries from the audience:
That’s all fun and fair – again, I appreciate the interest. But when I post a photo of a much needed getaway to Palm Springs and someone comments, “Why aren’t you working on the goddamn Guardians trailer?” or I post a tribute to the passing of Gene Wilder and someone comments, “Where the fuck is the trailer, asshole?” — well it gets a little uncool.
