James Gunn has a couple of movie projects on the horizon, but the next time you see something from him it probably won’t be in a movie theater. G4 has found out that Gunn’s working on a show that will only be available through XBox Live.
Apparently Microsoft has been talking about making original productions available on the video game system, and Gunn may be the first out the gate – he’s going to be shooting his show, described as ‘in the vein of Wonder Showzen and South Park,’ in May. The show, which is about ‘the wacky adventures of a group of friends,’ is casting right now. They’re looking for someone to fill the role of Bikini Girl. There are filling jokes to be made here, but I’ll leave them up to your imagination.
It’s the future, people. The delivery of content is changing, and while James Gunn isn’t the biggest name in the business, he’s a respectable guy who can get film projects off the ground. Having him bringing new content to this platform is, in my opinion, a bigger deal than having some unknown doing the same thing.
Gunn’s pretty good about keeping his fans in the loop, so hopefully we’ll soon have some more info on this, and we’ll be able to find out how it affects his movies in development.

"…how it EFFECTS his movies in development."
It's "affects." Put down the Wii and learn some grammar.
A show about 'the wacky adventures of a group of friends'? That sounds like a strikingly original premise there.
'They're looking for someone to fill the role of Bikini Girl. There are filling jokes to be made here, but I'll leave them up to your imagination.' Oof. Why do people insist on trying out jokes when they're not funny?
Bikini Girl? OUTRAGEOUS! Go screw, Gunn.
Ugh, more idiotic, obvious headlines from Devin.
I have mad respect for this guys talent…Dawn of the Dead and Slither we're awesome…(the Scobby movies notwithstanding), but he's doing shit for a fucking video-game system ( I haven't owned a system since the Sega Genesis) and he broke up with Jenna Fischer and has nothing interesting coming out like, as far as I can tell,EVER… wake me when he gets interesting again.
haha, love the fact a well-established writer watches Wonder Showzen, perhaps the greatest thing MTV has ever aired.
That picture is James Gunn at the moment he realized he'll never have sex with jenna Fischer again.
mcclanedieshard is a douche. I really hate assholes like you. You found an error. Good for you. Does that make you feel better about yourself? Do you feel like you accomplished something special?
unknown user is a douche. I really hate assholes like you. You complained about some complaining about finding an error. Good for you. Does that make you feel better about yourself? Do you feel like you accomplished something special?
another unknown user is a douche. Fuck I hate assholes like you. You're making a lame joke about some asshole. Do you think you're funny? Do you feel better about yourself? Damn! Now I'm a douche!
another another unknown user is a douche. I think that about sums it up.
Isn't Gunn busy being untalented?
Gunn is a hack!! This is the same guy that says he never seen "Night of the Creeps" untill he was finishing making "Slither". My ass. He'll probably say the same about "South Park" after his first episode airs.
