Marvel Hires a New Writer for GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY


Last month during San Diego Comic-Con, we brought you the news when Marvel Studios unveiled the logo, release date and concept art for their forthcoming big-screen adaptation of Guardians of the Galaxy.

Now, THR reports that the studio has hired Chris McCoy to pen the script for the film, based off of an original draft written by Nicole Perlman. While McCoy doesn’t have any produced writing credits to speak of, three of his spec scripts have been on the Black List (the list of Hollywood’s most liked, unproduced screenplays).

Guardians of the Galaxy is slated to hit theaters on August 1, 2014.
