After the successful premiere of Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 3, the future of this group of anti-heroes remains a bit up in the air both at the narrative level and for the james gunn march, who has directed all three of the individual Guardians movies so far. The MCU faces a difficult generational change of its most popular heroes, new stories and characters, and about that future is what James Gunn and Marvel have been able to talk about.
Despite his great work with Marvel, James Gunn was named co-chairman of DC Studios together with Peter Safran just a few months ago, work that he has combined with the promo for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 With the greatest of respect to both fan communities and companies. “The last thing DC would want is someone spending the last 12 years of his life creating a series of movies and then he turned his back on his last movie“, Gunn himself stated on this subject (via CBR).
Upcoming appearances of the Guardians of the Galaxy
The truth is that He has not provided specific details about it, but James Gunn himself confirmed to a Twitter follower that he has maintained conversations with Marvel about the future of the Guardians of the Galaxy in the MCU. A thorny subject, because if it has already been difficult to see a third adventure of the intergalactic group and how it fits into the MCU timeline, it is difficult to imagine how could i fit back in after this process of generational renewal that has been taking place in recent years.

As far as we are concerned, this could be the last adventure of the guardians of the galaxy as we know them today, although you never know. In recent days it has also been known that one of the pieces of advice Gunn gave Disney is that if there ever was a new Guardians movie, it will not work to follow the same formula always.
To follow James Gunn’s next projects, you will have to cross the sidewalk and see everything he has planned to do in DC with his best-known licenses and heroes, maybe by then Marvel has already thought what to do with Guardians of the Galaxy.
