James Gunn in talks for 'Guardians of the Galaxy 3'

Los Angeles: The filming of "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" has just begun and its helmer James Gunn has revealed that he has been offered to direct a possible third film of the franchise.

"Right now I really am just concerned with doing 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2'. I'm not sure what I'm going to do after this," the filmmaker said during a Q&A chat with fans on Facebook.

"Marvel has talked to me about continuing on. I'm not sure if that's what I want to do or if that's not what I want to do."

Gunn continued, "I really just want to make 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2' the greatest possible movie that I can, and something that's as honest and sincere and true as it can possibly be."

The production of "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2" started in Atlanta, Georgia last month and, according to Gunn in the same Q&A, is scheduled to wrap up in June.

Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista and Karen Gillan are reprising their respective roles alongside new cast members like Pom Klementieff, who's set to play Mantis, Elizabeth Debicki, Chris Sullivan and Kurt Russell.
