James Gunn and Jennifer Holland’s delightful announcement won many hearts as fans and industry friends are pouring their love on the newly engaged couple. Among those offering their best wishes, several actors have worked with Gunn, including The Suicide Squad star Viola Davis and Daniela Melchior, The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker actor Steve Agee, along with the Guardians Of The Galaxy actress Karen Gillan.
Meanwhile, Gunn knew about Holland after his friend Michael Rosenbaum, known for playing Lex Luthor in Smallville, offered to set them up after the director inquired about the actress. Later, Rosenbaum’s then-girlfriend spoke about the filmmaker with the Peacemaker star. However, she wasn’t aware of him even though James had made some record-shattering films.
Talking about the same, Jennifer Holland had told Hollywood Reporter, “She described James Gunn as a producer-director. I guess the fact that she put producer first or something, it just kind of gave me weird vibes. He seemed so incredibly charming in interviews.” Talking about their first meeting, Holland added, “I just told him my whole life story. We spent like seven hours together and that’s it. That’s how it started.”
