:0:0

Warning! Spoilers ahead for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 features Nathan Fillion in a brand new Marvel Cinematic Universe role. James Gunn's third and final Marvel Studios movie caps off the arc for the original Guardians of the Galaxy roster. When the ragtag of cosmic heroes debuted in 2014, they didn't have any name recognition outside avid Marvel Comics readers. Almost a decade later, they are some of the most popular players in the MCU. Aside from tackling their own adventures, the Guardians of the Galaxy were also pivotal in the Avengers' fight against Thanos towards the end of the Infinity Saga.
In Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Star-Lord, Rocket, Groot, Mantis, Nebula, Drax, and Gamora take on one final mission together. The threequel's story pits them against the High Evolutionary, who has ties to Rocket's horrible and heartbreaking origins story. Unlike Avengers: Endgame, no main hero dies in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. Instead, they all just go their separate ways to tackle their respective goals. This doesn't mean that the threequel is any less emotional or entertaining, however, especially as they battled High Evolutionary and his minions, including a prominent foe played by Gunn's frequent collaborator, Fillion.
