10 Secrets Of MCU Phase 5 You Need To Know
3. Not Every Guardian Is Getting Out Of This Phase Alive
Returning to the rag-tag bunch of unexpected heroes who have consistently stolen the hearts of many an MCU fan over the years, the much-clamoured-for comeback of Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn for the group's third and seemingly final outing promises to be an emotional one.
Speaking during Comic-Con, Gunn was quick to note how his Volume 3 finale is "much more mature" than the previous tales involving the likes of Star Lord and the gang, with the vibrant director also admitting in September 2021 that not every character will make it out of his ending alive.
For those dreading a complete annihilation of everyone from Groot to Drax the Destroyer, though, Gunn would ease concerns slightly by explaining during the Vol.3 Hall H panel, "This is the end of that story. I’m sorry. Some stories have an end. It doesn’t mean everybody dies.”
However, with the likes of Will Poulter's Adam Warlock and Maria Balakova's Cosmo the Spacedog both making their MCU debuts during this long-awaited trilogy-ender, it appears the Guardians will be made up of a very much new line-up heading into future Phases.
