Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3: Everything We Know
3. It Will "End The Trilogy"
With Guardians 3, Gunn will become the first director in the MCU to helm all three instalments in the same trilogy.
That's just as well, because the director has been very open about the fact that the upcoming third film will be the final part of the story he started with the first, wrapping everything up in a neat little trilogy.
This means that Guardians 3 might be the last time we see Star-Lord, Gamora, Rocket, Drax and Groot - at least, in a Guardians movie. During a Facebook Live Chat in 2017, Gunn stated that the third film will be "the last movie of this version of Guardians Of The Galaxy."
At the same time, that doesn't mean we'll never see another Guardians movie of some description...
