James Gunn Debunks Guardians of the Galaxy Prequel Show Rumor

Director James Gunn has recently debunked a rumor about a potential Guardians of the Galaxy prequel series with Disney+. The Guardians of the Galaxyare a ragtag team of space adventurers who first joined the MCU back in 2014. The movie's lovable characters quickly struck a chord with Marvel fans, and the Guardians quickly became fan favorites among the MCU line-up. Since the first film's release, the Guardians have been found in the sequel film Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (also helmed by Gunn),Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is expected to arrive in 2023, once again directed by Gunn.

For some time, rumors have been circulating that Disney+ is in the process of creating a Guardians of the Galaxy prequel series with Gunn. While in reality there is no credible source stating that this show exists at all, many fans still seem to believe it. This perhaps has been helped along by a recent interview with Zoe Saldana, who plays Gamora in the Guardians of the Galaxy films, in which she stated that Gamora would be a character whose backstory she would like to explore more. While Saldana made this statement honestly, it is possible some have taken this as a hint that the MCU prequelseries is real.
