Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Poster & Photos Tease Team’s Final Mission

Following the debut of its Super Bowl trailer, Marvel Studios has dropped a brand new poster and photos for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, the upcoming threequel to James Gunn’s blockbuster MCU films. It is scheduled to arrive in theaters on May 5.

The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 poster offers a casual look at the main cast including Chris Pratt’s Peter Quill, Dave Bautista’s Drax, Zoe Saldaña’s Gamora, and Karen Gillan’s Nebula. Meanwhile, the photos continue to tease the titular team’s final mission, which involves saving Rocket from the High Evolutionary, played Peacemaker‘s Chukwudi Iwuji.

“In Marvel Studios Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 our beloved band of misfits are looking a bit different these days,” reads the synopsis. “Peter Quill, still reeling from the loss of Gamora, must rally his team around him to defend the universe along with protecting one of their own. A mission that, if not completed successfully, could quite possibly lead to the end of the Guardians as we know them.”

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is once again written and directed by James Gunn. MCU vets Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldaña, Dave Bautista, Sean Gunn, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Bradley Cooper, and Vin Diesel are returning to reprise their respective roles as Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Kraglin, Nebula, Mantis, Rocket, and Groot. The threequel will also include the introduction of franchise newcomers Will Poulter, Chukwudi Iwuji, and Maria Bakalova, who have signed on for the roles of Adam Warlock, High Evolutionary, and Cosmo the Spacedog.

The space-traveling team was last seen in Marvel Studios’ Disney+ special presentation Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, which was filmed simultaneously with the upcoming threequel. In the holiday special, Drax and Mantis try to cheer up Peter by throwing him a Christmas party celebration with the appearance of his childhood idol Kevin Bacon.
