Among those offering the congratulations in the comments were several actors who have appeared in Gunn’s films and TV projects, including The Suicide Squad star Viola Davis, Guardians actress Karen Gillan, The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker actor Steve Agee and The Suicide Squad actress Daniela Melchior.
The couple have been together since 2015. They were introduced by Gunn’s friend Michael Rosenbaum, known for his role as Lex Luthor in the TV series Smallville, who was dating one of Holland’s friends at the time. Rosenbaum had offered to set them up after the director saw a photograph of Holland and asked who she was. When Rosenbaum’s then-girlfriend approached Holland with the idea of a setup, Holland admitted she had never heard of Gunn, despite the fact he had become pretty much a household name with Guardians the previous summer.
On the work front, James Gunn’s credit include a range of superhero-centric projects from HBO Max’s Peacemaker to films including The Suicide Squad and the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise. Meanwhile, Gunn and Holland are not only romantically involved but also have worked together as well, with her playing Emilia Harcourt in The Suicide Squad and reprising that role in Peacemaker, opposite John Cena. Her other credits include the TV series Sun Records and American Horror Story.
James Gunn was previously married to The Office star Jenna Fischer; they split in 2007 after six years of marriage. He is currently directing Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 for Marvel Studios, with a second season of Peacemaker officially on the way for HBO Max.
