The long-awaited third instalment of the Guardians of the Galaxy saga is almost upon us.
Here is everything you need to know about the upcoming Marvel movie, including who might come back to reprise their roles, the current release date, and more. Details are still a little scarce, but we’re learning more all the time, and will continue to update this page as news breaks.
Guardians of the Galaxy 3: What to know
Director James Gunn announced that filming had started in November 2021 and even teased fans with a cast reunion photo:
If you can’t wait to catch up with the gang, they also appear in Thor: Love and Thunder, which was released in the summer of 2022.
Gunn has also confirmed that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 takes place after the latest Thor movie. Other than that, specific plot details for the third movie are not yet known. Gunn has only promised that it’ll serve as the “epic conclusion” to the story he began in 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy. We suspect that, after Endgame, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 will focus on the search for Gamora. Gunn has been teasing that the third movie is “pretty heavy actually“. He said: “It’s a heavier story, so it’s an emotional process to go through”.
Karen Gillan said she read the script with Pom Klementieff and they were full of tears. “It’s brilliant and it’s emotional and it’s funny and it’s all of those things that you want,” she told Collider.
