Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2: 20 New Details Just Revealed
9. The Infinity Stones WILL Be Explored (Sort Of)
After Peter Quill and the other Guardians united to somehow channel the power of the Power Stone without being smashed into a million pieces, some questions were asked: how didn't they die? What of Quill's backstory makes him able to handle Infinity Stone when it's limited to supremely powerful beings? Will he have permanently picked up the Stone's power?
While there won't be much talk of Infinity Stones (and certainly no new ones) in the sequel, James Gunn and Kevin Feige did confirm that Star-Lord's mythology has been expanded because he was able to resist the Stone's power. And we're going to find out more of that mystery in the forthcoming film:
"There’s a question as to why Star-Lord was able to hold the infinity stone and not be completely and immediately destroyed. And we learn a little bit more about why that’s the case in this movie."
