A filmography can mean different things depending on whether it counts only projects Gunn wrote or directed, or also includes producing and executive-producing credits, acting roles, cameos, shorts, anthology segments and appearances as himself. The selection here emphasizes notable screen projects and their central creative roles; it should not be read as every entry in every credit category.

Future projects and release schedules can change. A 2023 Associated Press report covered an announced DC slate, but that dated announcement alone does not establish what is currently scheduled or released. The Associated Press report on the 2023 announcement is historical context, not a current release calendar.
