What does a February start date tells us aboutGuardians of the Galaxy 2? Well, it means we probably won’t start hearing about casting until the Fall. Gunn will likely havea lot of new charactersin the movie but they won’t get to that until he finishes the script. He’sjust starting that process now. Also, the Russo Brothers have to finish filmingCivil Warat Pinewood in Atlanta GA before set construction can even begin. So don’t expect much information until after the Summer movie season.
Guardians of the Galaxy 2is set for release June 02, 2025. It’ll bring back the primary cast of the first film –Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Michael Rookerand more – in a story that will reportedlydelve deeper intothe backstories of these characters. It will also likely reveal the identity of Peter Quill’s father and feature more Thanos, played byJosh Brolin. However, though Thanos will almost certainly play a role in the film,Gunn does not thinkGuardians of the Galaxy 2is simply a prequel toAvengers: Infinity War Part 1, which will be released a year after.
