GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY's Chris Pratt To Appear In THE AVENGERS 3?

Will Peter Quill aka Star-Lord join Earth's Mightiest Heroes in the third installment of The Avengers franchise? Mario-Francisco Robles of Latino Review seems to think so. Read on for further details.

Oh how we will continue to listen to these folks. While covering JoBlo's Guardians of the Galaxy sequel rumors, Mario-Francisco Robles had a pretty interesting tidbit to add.



"Marvel’s high ambitions for the project don’t surprise me, though, since this jives with what a source of mine told me last month. Which was that Marvel fully intends for, at the very least, Chris Pratt's Star-Lord to be in Avengers 3, which likely wouldn't come out until 2018. So it makes sense that they’re going to continue to promote and expand these characters for the next few years."


Pratt himself has acknowledged the possibility of a crossover between his ragtag-group of misfits and Earth's Mightiest Heroes in the past. What's interesting to note is that with the rumor that Guardians of the Galaxy may possibly get a sequel in Phase Three, it seems to fit in with what Marvel seemingly has planned for The Avengers 3; bring Thanos into the fold. Some fans have questioned why Guardians of the Galaxy was placed in Phase Two since Marvel decided to pit The Avengers against Ultron in the sequel, leaving the Mad Titan for the big finale. Perhaps they've had plans for the first and second film all along? What do you guys think?

When Thanos was confirmed to appear in GOTG, my initial reaction was they're gonna fail at stopping Thanos, so they'll come to earth and join the Avengers to fight him.

I'm pretty sure everyone is assuming the GOTG to appear in Avengers 3. This is hardly a "scoop".

How much longer do we have to wait for a trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy!?

I hope it's just him and Rocket. And I hope he dies. Then Rocket has to go back to the rest of the team with the news.

I only just noticed now... Since Avengers 3 will likely come out in 2018 (they wouldn't release it in 2017), Marvel will have 5 solo films beforehand (like Phase One):

Ant-Man
Doctor Strange
Guardians
Thor 3
Cap 3

GOOD

@GoldenOne33

They wouldn't release Avengers 3 in 2017; Marvel seems to AT LEAST release 4 solo films before each Avengers film, and 2017's May release date will (likely) be the fourth solo movie. Marvel would most certainly not release Avengers 3 in a June-July slot, so they might as well wait until the next year.

Probably because of Thanos, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Hopefully Rocket Raccoon will confirm to make a appearance too.
I would for a scene with iron man and rocket talking mess to each other.

JoJo1982 - 2/8/2014, 8:25 PM
@ Alpha

It's all but yet confirmed that black panther and dr strange movie will be in Phase 3

But Kevin Feige sure has been hinting that those 2 movies are going to happen soon

Maybe I am wrong but I thought I heard GotG takes place in the future. So how could he appear in Avengers 3? Unless they somehow teleport him back in time. Which could work if they want to go that way.

@blackicejoe

I don't think GotG takes place in the future but just another part of the galaxy

Jane Foster (Portman)

Largest, most expensive cast of all time?

@jojo... Assuming Avengers 3 takes the big May 2018 slot, I'd be surprised if Black Panther makes phase 3 since all the slots look to be filled.

2015
Avengers 2
Ant-Man

2016
GOTG 2
Thor 3

2017
Dr. Strange
Captain America 3

2018
Avengers 3

If that's true that's good to hear.

@oldgreg ... I've thoroughly enjoyed every movie you scaly manfish. Not sure they could make them any better.
Kurne
Kurne - 2/8/2014, 8:50 PM
I think if Justice League came out, it would make more than the first Avengers and (possibly) Age of Ultron. However, if you combine The Avengers with Guardians for 3 - whether the movie is good or not, that's a guaranteed win.
Kurne

@OldGreg

So like how every other studio (conveniently) want in on shared universes so they can make some Avengers $$$$ too? Cool.

THANOS must be major villain in Avengers 3 .. Don't want to wait for his appearance.

A3 should be Infinty Gauntlet. Of course Thanos, and appearance by GOTG should be expected. A3 should be 2 movies.
Pedrito
Pedrito - 2/8/2014, 9:57 PM
I hope to see all the Guardians for Avengers 3.
Also the Defenders might be a thing by then, and they might show up.

It's not a MCU article without some sourpuss fanboy expressing his cynicism under false pretenses.
Kurne
Kurne - 2/8/2014, 10:05 PM
Chris Pratt is such a cool guy. If James Gunn is telling the truth about him being the 'next RDJ', then I seriously hope we see them together in A3. Pratt is like, the clean version of Downey (before he enters a Marvel film) :P

Avengers 3 should consist the Avengers, GOTG, Spider-Man, Sif and The Warriors Three all facing off against Thanos.

My theory for Avengers 3 has always been that it will center around a core group of Avengers for the majority of the movie, and then the climax of the film is every hero that has ever been in the universe coming together to fight Thanos.

That includes your Avengers, and every sidekick character that didn't make the main team, and characters from the tv shows, ala Luke Cage, Daredevil, Jessica Jones and Iron Fist. And if Sony and Marvel can work out a deal, have Spider-man appear.

It's a bit easier to include everyone then, instead of trying to make screen time for all these other characters.

@bbman182

I don't we also gotta know the fact that nothing yet has been confirmed yet for Phase 3, other than Antman
