James Gunn recently talked about his future at DC, confirming that he’s working on one more The Suicide Squad spin-off series, and he also teased that Peacemaker Season 2 might happen after all. Now, Gunn opened up about his future at Marvel, for which he’s currently filming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which is set to debut in theaters in May 2023, and Guardians of the Galaxy: The Holiday Special, which will premiere on Disney+ next Holiday Season.

Although this was quite expected, Gunn now confirmed that the upcoming third installment of the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise will bring closure to the team that first assembled in 2014 in Gunn’s original movie. They also reappeared in their own sequel — Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 – and crossover movies Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldaña, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel, and Bradley Cooper are returning one last time to play the original members of the Guardians, as well as Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Sean Gunn, and Sylvester Stallone who are reprising their respective MCU roles.

“This is the end for us, the last time people will see this team of Guardians. “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. I’m aware that the third film in most trilogies sucks; not always.” — James Gunn for Deadline

Of course, this is MCU. These Guardians might be done after the third movie, but there’s always a chance that some new team will be formed, and some members of the original Guardians team might make a comeback some way in the future of the MCU. Only time will tell. And let’s not forget that we will watch Guardians this summer in the upcoming movie Thor: Love and Thunder. Although Gunn previously teased there will be some shocking and heartbreaking moments in the third Guardians movie, we can only hope that everyone will get their happy ending.

Written and directed by James Gunn, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is set to debut on May 5, 2023 in theaters.

Lukas Abramovich is a freelance writer and photo and video editor based in Croatia. He's also a web designer and holds a Master’s degree in general Computer Science from the Faculty of Informatics based in Pula, Croatia. Since 2018, Lukas has worked on several portals writing about movies, TV shows, and video games. He's currently writing articles for two of them: Fiction Horizon and Comic Basics. He also has a YouTube channel in his native language, and the content there is mostly reviewing popular movies and TV shows. Lukas also has an Instagram page where he once used to post fan-made posters he made, which is something he would like to continue working on, as photo and video editing are also some of his passions. Lukas is a big movie lover who is okay with watching any kind of movie. His favorite movie is Michael Curtiz's Casablanca, but he's a loyal follower of Marvel and DC movies, as well as several other blockbuster franchises he's been following for years; Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Mission: Impossible, and James Cameron's Avatar are only some of them. His favorite director is Christopher Nolan, with Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve as honorable mentions. Lukas is also a big fan of four fantasy multimedia franchises; The Wizarding World, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Witcher, and The Lord of the Rings. He calls them "the four rulers of the fantasy genre." He loves to write about anything spawned from those franchises (books, games, movies...), as well as anything branded with the Marvel or DC logo. Video games and their adaptations are also something he follows faithfully since he's a big fan of story-driven single-player games like Assassin's Creed, The Last of Us, Uncharted, etc. His favorite video game ever is Red Dead Redemption 2.
