10 MCU Leaks That Just Might Be True
5. Rocket's Creator And Drax's Daughter
Guardians of the Galaxy is an interesting series. It was the first MCU property to introduce heroes outside of the Avengers, and there was a feeling that Marvel may have lost their minds when they greenlit a Guardians film. "A talking raccoon? A sentient tree? Really?" Then the film happened, and people were blown away. Now, the Guardians are some of the most beloved characters in the entire MCU canon.
One fan-favorite is Rocket, and according to Wardell, the third film will see his backstory explored. His creator will be revealed as the High Evolutionary, a mad scientist who dabbles in genetic engineering. One can probably assume that he'll be the film's villain (or one of them), and we're all left to wonder how -- and if -- he'll react to a genetically "perfect" creature like Adam Warlock.
On top of that, Rocket will find love in the form of Lylla, a genetically-engineered otter.
Another juicy tidbit: apparently, Drax's daughter is still alive. If we're following the comics, we assume that she'll return in the form of Moondragon. James Gunn recently said that someone will die in the upcoming film. With Drax's daughter making a return, might Drax go out with a fatherly sacrifice?
