On Threads, Gunn revealed what he wants to happen with the Guardians of the Galaxy in the future.

Where The New Guardians Of The Galaxy Team Could Return In The MCU?

Solo Movies & Crossovers Are Possible For The Guardians Of The Galaxy’s MCU Future

While Gunn is done with the MCU for the time being, as he shifts his attention to building the new DC Universe, he set up an exciting new Guardians of the Galaxy team. Rocket Raccoon has become the leader of the cosmic squad, with the new iteration of the Guardians of the Galaxy also including Groot, Cosmo the Spacedog, Phylla, Kraglin, and Adam Warlock. Adam’s pet, Blurp, was also seen with the new team.

Feige could appoint a new director to helm Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 or rename the franchise and start fresh for a new trilogy. Rocket has become one of the MCU’s most beloved characters, and after his turn as the focal point of the excellent Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, it makes sense for the character’s new team to receive another solo movie. Through a continuation of the Guardians’ solo franchise, the MCU can keep expanding its cosmic corner.

The new Guardians of the Galaxy could also return in supporting roles in other projects. The upcoming two Avengers movies — The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars — should continue the trend of including several MCU heroes from the previous two Avengers entries, which makes an appearance from the Guardians of the Galaxy likely. With an announced return for Chris Pratt’s Star-Lord, a possible solo Peter Quill project could include Rocket and the Guardians in some way. Other cosmic projects like the in-development Nova series would also be perfect for the Guardians of the Galaxy to return.
