Not only Scott Derrickson, even MCU's Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn, who is also known for his work in the DCEU series Peacemaker, has showered his love on the Telugu blockbuster flick RRR.

Just hours after his MCU colleague Scott Derrickson praised the film, a user quote tweeted Scott¡¯s tweet addressing it to James Gunn. The fan wrote, ¡°now you gotta watch this movie. RRR on Netflix,¡± to which James Gunn promptly responded saying, ¡°I did. Totally dug it.¡±

Well, the appreciation chain didn't just end there as another fan tagged British filmmaker Edgar Wright in the same tweet, asking him to express his views regarding the film. The Shaun of the Dead director took to his Twitter account and replied, ¡°Waiting for a cinema screening. There¡¯s some in London coming up next month.¡±

While many from Hollywood have already showered praises on SS Rajamouli's magnum opus, filmmakers Scott Derrickson and James Gunn are certainly the two most high-profile personalities to laud the Telugu blockbuster movie.

The person who directed @RRRMovie should have their picture in the dictionary for "overachiever". What an over the top, crazy, beautiful, glorious ride!!! And so many tigers.

"Would love to write a movie for a movie star like Ram Charan, just to work with such a great actor and cinematic presence. But if he works in international productions he must be the lead! Hollywood usually doesn¡¯t get that. I¡¯m here for more great Indian movies," he tweeted.
