Specific plot details for the third movie are under wraps for now, but Gunn has promised that it'll serve as the "epic conclusion" to the story he began in 2014's Guardians of the Galaxy. "His death means something to people and I'm not about to diminish that." Guardians of the Galaxy 3 plot: What will Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 be about? "As I've said before, Yondu is dead and will stay dead as long as I'm involved with the Guardians," Gunn tweeted.

One person we definitely won't be seeing (unless it's in flashbacks) is Michael Rooker as Yondu, who sacrificed himself to save Star-Lord in the second movie. "I've gone through periods of looking at food and feeling like I can't face it, and then you blink and the next minute you're ready to eat furniture because you're so hungry."Īlso joining is Peacemaker star Chukwudi Iwuji and while we don't know who he's playing, Gunn revealed that he "is one of the main characters in the movie and people are freaking out over how good this guy is". I'm just maintaining my weight," he explained. "I'm not eating copious amounts of food to bulk, and I'm not cutting. Poulter's also been talking about the physical transformation required for the role, something he wouldn't recommend to anybody. James Gunn is someone I really, really admire so I feel very lucky." "Particularly in a franchise like Guardians of the Galaxy, which I regard to be incredibly creative and very, very unique. "I feel very, very lucky and honoured to have been welcomed into the Marvel family," said Poulter of his casting.

Sylvester Stallone's Stakar is back as well, so that could signal a return for his fellow Ravagers: Aleta Ogord (Michelle Yeoh), Charlie-27 (Ving Rhames), Mainframe (voiced by Miley Cyrus) and Martinex (Michael Rosenbaum) in the MCU's future.Ī most exciting addition to the cast is Will Poulter, who has been confirmed to appear as Adam Warlock, who has been rumoured to appear in the MCU ever since he was teased in one of Guardians Vol 2's credits scenes. James Gunn has written a beautiful story, that's making us emotional even as we shoot it," she noted. "There's a lot of melancholy here, but also pride that we've achieved something great. The star has also been teasing the threequel's story, and it sounds like we'll need tissues. Saldana has said she'd want to "explore a bad Gamora" in the third Guardians movie, and we'd totally be up for that. We thought Gamora had been killed off in Avengers: Infinity War, but Endgame introduced a Gamora from a past timeline in 2014, who was brought forward to 2023 and went missing after Tony Stark saved the day. After the events of Avengers: Endgame, we'll also be seeing Zoe Saldana as Gamora again. We'll see Chris Pratt return as Star-Lord, Dave Bautista as Drax, Karen Gillan as Nebula, Bradley Cooper as Rocket, Vin Diesel as Groot and Pom Klementieff as Mantis. Guardians of the Galaxy 3 cast: Who's back in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3? The threequel has actually already set a new world record with its filming as it surpassed The Grinch for "the most makeup appliances created for a single production". Of course, when filming does end, that doesn't mean the movie is ready to roll as there is post-production to be done. As mentioned above, filming is underway on the third movie and is set to finish at the "beginning of May" according to Gunn.
