Volume 3 Director Defends Gender-Swap Decision Amid Backlash❗

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 director James Gunn took to Twitter to respond to those who took issue with Cosmo the Spacedog being female in the movie. On the pages of Marvel Comics, the character has always been portrayed as a male dog; however, Cosmo was swapped for the big-screen blockbuster.

Logan78106803: “Why did you make cosmo a female when he had always been known as a good boy”

James Gunn: “Because Cosmo is based on Laika, the Russian dog, who was a female, so I gender-swapped her back.”

Notgoingsane: “But it makes no sense why to change it. Keeping it wasn't inaccurate as the comic is a male dog It serves no purpose to change it. The original comic was a male dog you are not 'changing it back' because it was never a female in the first place. Only inspired by.”

James Gunn: “I’d rather honor the real dog who died in outer space. Cosmo would not exist without Laika. By the way, I changed Mantis, Drax, High Evo, and others from humans to aliens, which seems a bigger change. Why does it upset you so much?“

Notgoingsane: Because the whole point of an adaptation is to adapt. You adapt the source material as I stated. And I hate comics changing established characters as well (unless they state its a multiverse thing.)

James Gunn: “It’s always a multiverse thing. That’s what the MCU is - a different version of Earth 616. And, again, you should look up the meaning of ‘adapt.’“

James Gunn is no stranger to gender, sexual preference and Race swapping characters and will continue to do so even for characters and will face the same sort of backlash all for the sake of pandering to different audiences and not paying any respects to the original source material.
