With “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” opening in cinemas all around the world, new details about future instalments are already in discussion.
Director James Gunn revealed that “Guardians of the Galaxy 3” will conclude the trilogy of the existing Guardians and introduce a new team of heroes. Earlier this morning, Gunn addressed where the 3rd instalment will take place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline.

The first movie took place in 2014, while “Vol. 2” picks up 2 months later. It was previously teased that “Avengers: Infinity War” will be set 4 years after “Vol. 2”, meaning it takes place in 2018. Now that it’s been confirmed that “Vol. 3” will take place after the next 2 Avengers films, it’s possible that we’ll be getting a full grown Groot squaring off against the Hulk.
It has also been hinted that “Guardians of the Galaxy 3” will feature more of Zoe Saldana’s Gamora and her estranged sister Nebula (played by Karen Gillan).
“I mean, yeah, I feel like we are definitely going to explore more and more with Nebula. In the 1st movie she was this angry, bitter villain and we sort of understood why, but we didn’t really get into the details. This movie we dive right into it and we know exactly why she is the way she is and I feel like she is definitely going to make some self discoveries through that. You know, she is having quite a cathartic experience with her sister in this movie and I think she is going to get to the point where maybe she’ll get to the good side, but also I kind of want to maintain a little bit about the bad,” said Gillan while promoting “Vol. 2”.
