Guardians of the Galaxy

Attention all Marvel fans and cosmic adventurers, it’s time to buckle up and prepare for an intergalactic ride like no other! This August, the highly anticipated ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’ is set to make its explosive debut, exclusively on Disney+. Get ready for a thrilling cinematic experience that will leave you on the edge of your seat, as our beloved ragtag team of misfit heroes returns for another action-packed adventure through the cosmos.

Ever since the first ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ film hit the big screen, this quirky and lovable band of interstellar outlaws has captured the hearts of audiences worldwide. Led by the wise-cracking Star-Lord (Peter Quill), portrayed by the charismatic Chris Pratt, and supported by the likes of Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Drax (Dave Bautista), Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper), and the adorable Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel), the Guardians have become icons of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).

The previous films introduced us to a universe teeming with cosmic wonders, humor, and breathtaking action sequences. James Gunn, the visionary director behind the first two installments, is returning to helm ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,’ promising fans an even greater and more emotionally charged experience.

As we eagerly await the release, there’s no shortage of excitement and speculation about what the third chapter has in store. The closing scenes of ‘Avengers: Endgame’ left us in suspense, hinting at Gamora’s uncertain fate and the newfound responsibility on Star-Lord’s shoulders. ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3′ is expected to address these lingering questions while diving deeper into the characters’ backstories and exploring their relationships.

One of the most intriguing aspects of the upcoming film is the introduction of new characters. As the MCU expands, so does its roster of heroes and villains. With the return of the lovable group, we can also anticipate fresh faces and adversaries that will add new layers to the story. These newcomers are sure to bring their unique flair, and fans are eager to see how they will interact with the existing Guardians team.

The soundtrack of the ‘Guardians’ films has been an integral part of their charm. Filled with classic hits from the ’70s and ’80s, the music has served as an emotional backdrop to the action on screen. ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’ is expected to be no different, with an eclectic mix of tunes that will set the mood and further enhance the film’s emotional impact.

As the MCU continues to evolve and expand, the Guardians play a crucial role in bridging the gap between Earth-based heroes and the cosmic side of the universe. Their adventures not only take them to the far reaches of space but also connect them with other Marvel characters, leading to exciting crossovers and potential team-ups in the future.

Disney+ has become the go-to platform for Marvel fans, offering an extensive library of MCU content, including original series and films. ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3’ joins the ranks of exclusive content that makes Disney+ a must-have subscription for all Marvel enthusiasts.

What is ‘Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3’ about?

Guardians Of The Galaxy Cast

Chris Pratt as Peter Quill / Star-Lord:

The half-human, half-Celestial leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy who was abducted from Earth as a child and raised by a group of alien thieves and smugglers; the Ravagers. In the film, Quill is in a “state of depression” following the appearance of a variant of his dead lover Gamora, who does not share the same affection for Quill as her older version had for him, which in turn affects his leadership of the Guardians

Zoe Saldaña as Gamora:

An orphan who seeks redemption for her past crimes, and was adopted and trained by Thanos to be his personal assassin. The original version of Gamora, a member of the Guardians, was killed by Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and an alternate version of the character traveled to the present in Avengers: Endgame (2019); Saldaña reprises the latter role in this film, now serving as a leader of the Ravagers. Saldaña stated that Vol. 3 would be the final time she would portray Gamora, noting that she originally signed to play her in one film and ended up playing the role for much longer, a role she was grateful to play due to the impact it especially had on female fans.

Dave Bautista as Drax:

A member of the Guardians and a highly skilled warrior whose family was slaughtered by Ronan the Accuser, under the instructions of Thanos. Bautista stated that Vol. 3 would be the final time he would portray Drax, having been grateful for the role, while still calling it a “relief” to have concluded his time with the character, given the long hours needed to get into makeup and hoping to pursue more dramatic acting roles. Because of Bautista’s decision, Gunn opted not to include Drax in the post-credits scene.

Karen Gillan as Nebula:

A member of the Guardians, a former Avenger, and Gamora’s adoptive sister who, similarly to her, was trained by their adoptive father Thanos to be his personal assassin. Gillan believed Nebula was developing into a “slightly different person” with more levity as she starts to heal psychologically following the death of Thanos, who was the source of her abuse and torment. Vol. 3 fulfills a character arc for the character writer and director James Gunn envisioned when starting work on Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), going from a minor villain to a member of the Guardians. Although the film teases a possible romance between Star-Lord and Nebula, Gunn denies having ever considered the two becoming a couple, though Gillan does believe she harbors a small crush on Quill.

Pom Klementieff as Mantis:

A member of the Guardians with empathic powers, and Quill’s half-sister.

Vin Diesel as Groot:

A member of the Guardians who is a tree-like humanoid and the accomplice of Rocket.

Bradley Cooper as Rocket:

A member of the Guardians and a former Avenger who is a genetically engineered raccoon-based bounty hunter and a master of weapons and military tactics. Gunn said that the film tells Rocket’s story, including his background and “where he’s going”, along with how that ties into the other Guardians and the end of this iteration of the team. The film completes a character arc that was established in Guardians of the Galaxy and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017), and continued in Infinity War and Endgame. Sean Gunn once again provided on set motion capture for the character, while also voicing young Rocket. Cooper also voiced adolescent Rocket while Noah Raskin voiced baby Rocket.

Will Poulter as Adam Warlock:

A powerful artificial being created by the Sovereign to destroy the Guardians.^] Given Warlock is newly born from the Sovereign’s cocoon, he is “basically a baby” that “does not understand life very well”. Poulter believed there was “a lot of comedy” in someone just entering the world for the first time and “trying to develop his moral compass”, while also having “some genuine pathos”. Gunn thought Warlock’s interactions with the Guardians provided “an interesting juxtaposition” to what their journey has been, and described him as a more traditional superhero compared to the Guardians, although not necessarily a hero.

Sean Gunn as Kraglin:

A member of the Guardians and Yondu Udonta’s former second-in-command in the Ravagers.

Chukwudi Iwuji as the High Evolutionary:

A scientist specializing in creating hybrid creatures and Rocket’s creator, seeking to forcibly enhance all living beings into a “special race”. Iwuji described the character as “narcissistic, sociopathic, but very charming”, adding that there was “something very Shakespearean about him, there’s something very emotionally dark about him, and he’s a lot of fun on top of all that”. In preparation for the role, Iwuji listened to his character’s taste for classical music in contrast to the American rock and pop music songs played in the film, allowing Iwuji to go back to his favorite arias and operas, like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro (1786) and Don Giovanni (1787). 

Gunn likened the High Evolutionary to “a space version” of Doctor Moreau from Island of Lost Souls (1932), a film Gunn is a big fan of, calling him “a detestable character”. When asked by Rachel Lindsay of Extra about the character, Gunn referred to the High Evolutionary as the “cruelest MCU villain” to date the franchise has ever seen due to how he negatively impacts on the lives of Rocket and his fellow subject friends, while Iwuji made sure along with Gunn to avoid giving the Evolutionary, at least intentionally, any sympathy unlike previous villains like Thanos or Killmonger, focusing under Gunn’s orders on commenting in the character’s single mindedness, narcissistic and zealous personality like the “most horrific” figures in history have been shown to be.

Linda Cardellini as Lylla:

An anthropomorphic otter who is an associate and friend of Rocket. Cardellini provided both the voice and motion capture for Lylla, having previously played Laura Barton in past MCU media.

 

Nathan Fillion as Master Karja:

An orgosentry at Orgocorp

 

Sylvester Stallone as Stakar Ogord:

A high-ranking Ravager
