Ok, I know we had the very funny, fun and emotional Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special last week and they’ve appeared in the last two avengers movies and Thor: Love and Thunder (it’s ok, we’ve tried to forget that mess too), but it seems like a million years since we properly hung out with Quill, Groot, Rocket and the crew.
And, in MCU years, it’ll be six years since Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 (2017) by the time Vol 3 releases next May, so that IS a million (MCU) years.
But next summer will kick off in style as Chris Pratt, Starlord leads the crew into their third and (semi-) final adventure, at least under James Gunn and, from looking at the trailer, this one is set to really put the team through the wringer and with rumours persisting that Gunn filmed death scenes for the who team, it seems that all bets are off on who will survive.
And that’s really exciting.
Is ALF set to appear in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3? It looks possible…
Remember when Joss Whedon, the guy who created Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the show where no-one was safe – Buffy even died in that show! – and when the Russo brothers’ wiped out the Avengers in Infinity War? Well, it’s exciting to know that the MCU may just have real stakes again for its characters, even the ones we’ve grown to love.
What? You didn’t see that coming?
Anyway, check out the trailer and voice off in all the usual ways and let us know who you think will die and who will make it to fight another day.
The Guardians return only in theaters May 5th, 2023.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
