Marvel Studios just revealed the official trailer for their newest MCU project. After several movies and TV shows, this time we’ll get a collection of five Original shorts with Vin Diesel’s Baby Groot playing the titular role. Announced in December 2020, I Am Groot will serve as a short relief before we return to the following major Marvel properties such as the She-Hulk series and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

Check the official trailer down below:

Vin Diesel debuted as the voice of Groot in 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy. Although the adult Groot was killed off at the end of that movie, the appearance of Baby Groot was teased in one of the post-credit scenes. Diesel reprised the role in 2017’s sequel Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, and also in Avengers: Infinity War, Avengers: Endgame, and most recently in Thor: Love and Thunder. Diesel will also return as Groot in The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special next December and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 next May.

At San Diego Comic-Con, I Am Groot writer/director/executive producer Kirsten Lepore answered questions about the upcoming series and treated the audience to the trailer and new key art. A surprise screening of one of the shorts, “Groot Takes a Bath,” delighted everyone, and applause greeted the announcement of the second collection of shorts.

There’s no guarding the galaxy against this mischievous toddler! So get ready as Baby Groot takes center stage in his very own collection of shorts, exploring his glory days growing up—and getting into trouble—among the stars. “I Am Groot,” five original shorts featuring several new and unusual characters, stars everyone’s favorite little tree, Baby Groot, voiced by Vin Diesel, who voices Groot in the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise.

The executive producers are Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Brad Winderbaum, and James Gunn. I Am Groot launches exclusively on Disney+ on August 10, with all five shorts available for viewing.
