Will Guardians 3 be on Disney Plus? ›

Get ready for one last ride, because James Gunn's third installment of Marvel's rag tag team of unlikely heroes is heading to a TV near you. After an explosive theatrical debut in May 2023, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is touching down on Disney+ beginning Wednesday, Aug. 2 to make its streaming debut.

In plainer English, this means there will be no Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4, or at least not one that will be anything like the first three. For further proof, when asked by fans if there were any plans for a Vol. 4, Gunn flat out stated that there were none.

Absolutely phenomenal in my opinion. Guardians of the Galaxy 3 was not only super emotional (after Endgame I'd say the most emotional Marvel movie), the CGI and the action scenes were incredibly good as well.

Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige then announced that Anthony and Joe Russo, who helmed the smash hits Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, would return to direct the next two Avengers movies. But Feige wasn't done yet. Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but not as Iron Man.

Guardian 3's more mature tone was a topic that Gunn had previously talked about in 2022, commenting at the time that the film's "so, so big and dark and different from what people might be expecting it to be." Gunn also delved into why GotG 3 is so long, remarking that it was "necessary to experience the full arc for ...

Why is there so much yelling in Guardians of the Galaxy 3? ›

She's gone by various names, including Captain Marvel and Quasar, but she's perhaps best known as a member of the Guardians.

A post-credits scene marks the final moment in the film and takes us to Missouri's sleepy St Charles, with Peter and his Grandpa having breakfast together. They're talking about mowing a neighbour's lawn. Peter says, “If she needs help mowing her lawn, I'll do it but I kind of feel like her son should help.”
