Guardians of the Galaxy 3 will be the last time we see “this team”

James Gunn is in the midst of shooting Guardians of the Galaxy 3 but we should prepare ourselves to bid farewell to the team we fell in love with back in 2014. While speaking on Deadline’s Hero Nation podcast, James Gunn said that the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy sequel is “the end for us” and will be “the last time people will see this team of Guardians.“

Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean that we won’t see these characters again in future Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, but as far as the current iteration of the Guardians goes… this will be it. James Gunn went on to tease that Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is “so big and dark” and will be “different from what people might be expecting it to be,” which is something he’s said before. Considering just how successful the Guardians of the Galaxy movies have been, it’s hard to imagine Marvel not making more, but it will be interesting to see which characters continue on, if any. “I’m aware that the third film in most trilogies sucks; not always,” Gunn said. “I just want to be true to the characters, the story and give people the wrap-up that they deserve for the story. That’s always a little bit scary; I’m doing my best.” We have faith you’ll do just fine.

Guardians of the Galaxy 3 will of course feature the return of Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Karen Gillan, Dave Bautista, and Pom Klementieff, but there are a few new additions to the cast as well. Will Poulter will be playing Adam Warlock, who was first teased in one of the post-credit scenes in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 when Ayesha (Elizabeth Debicki) created an artificial being to help destroy the Guardians. Peacemaker star Chukwudi Iwuji has also joined the cast as a extremely powerful and complex character who is currently being kept under wraps, but that certainly hasn’t stopped fans from guessing. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will hit theaters on May 5, 2023.
