Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is one thing of a rarity within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Whereas a number of heroes have gotten movie trilogies within the saga, excluding Spider-Man, none of these trilogies have felt like one full story. Tales with endings. Tales the place, if the filmmaker needed, they may—let’s say—kill a personality or two. Typically, like with Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and Ant-Man, we anticipated these characters to return after their respective half threes.
For some motive—possibly as a result of writer-director James Gunn has since departed Marvel for its greatest competitor, DC—with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, you simply have the sense that something may occur. Everybody may die in a single explosion and it wouldn’t matter as a result of Gunn is finished with the MCU for good. And so, with that every one in thoughts, we puzzled: did Marvel Studios, and particularly its president Kevin Feige, give Gunn full rein to do no matter he needed? Or have been sure characters, twists, and so forth off-limits? Mainly, how a lot slack was Gunn given to inform his story?
“I believe he will get all of the slack,” Feige stated throughout a Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 press convention earlier at this time. “As a lot slack as there’s to present, he’s given.” Gunn agreed. “I get all of the slack, particularly on this one,” he stated.
As a fast follow-up, Feige was requested particularly about worries relating to killing characters. “On earlier films, we had some discussions about that however not on this one,” he stated. “This one actually was about seeing it by way of as a result of it all the time was designed as a trilogy capper.” “That’s proper,” Gunn agreed.
So, what does that imply? Do the Guardians make it out unscathed? Will they return to the MCU? And, if that’s the case, when? Having seen the film, I’ll say a lot of the solutions to these questions are in there; they don’t seem to be in any respect what you’re anticipating, however count on to really feel emotional about it.
