Guardians of the Galaxy may have inadvertently put Matthew Vaughn’s Flash Gordon remake on hold.
For me, the only problem with Flash Gordon is Guardians [of the Galaxy] kind of stole what I would have liked to have done with it.
At the moment, Vaughn plans on making Kingsman 3 after The Golden Circle finishes its theatrical run, but hopefully, he fits time to work his Flash Gordon reboot into his schedule, while also finding ways to make the remake different from Star Wars and Guardians of the Galaxy.
What many modern moviegoers may not understand, however, is that Flash Gordon has been around longer than superheroes have, and its influence on the sci-fi genre extends beyond traditional sci-fi films.
