"I've not been, in any way, upset or judgmental with James," Holland told the news outlet, adding that she understands that currently his number one focus is life has been "taking on this opportunity that he has at DC with 100% full force".
"I think he's doing that with just every ounce of his being, and he wants to make sure that it's everything that the fans could hope for," she added.
Gunn recently came out with a superhero movie, Superman, starring David Corenswet in the lead along with Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult, Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, and Nathan Fillion, among others.

Holland, who features as Emilia Harcourt in Peacemaker, shared that she has a front-row seat to everything that her husband does both at work as well as back home.
Admitting that Gunn is striving to the DC fans first through his various efforts, Holland understands that "you are always going to disappoint some people, that's just the way it is."
Holland said her partner wants to do "justice" with the characters and give them what they deserve. He is making these efforts for "people who've lived with these characters in these comics that they've been reading (and) the characters that they created in their brains and everything".
Gunn remains "very committed" to making it the best, she added.
The couple started dating each other in July 2015 and got married in October 2022. Recently, Gunn marked the 10th anniversary of their maiden date on social media. He called Holland the "best thing that ever happened to me."
