When cameras were rolling on Thor: Love and Thunder, we caught a first look at the returning Guardians of the Galaxy in some snazzy new costumes. Now, with filmmaker James Gunn hard at work on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Mail Online has shared a few shots of Drax (Dave Bautista) and Mantis (Pom Klementieff) suited up and ready for action.

It looks like Bautista will be able to spend a little less time in the makeup chair for the threequel as Drax is covering his abs with a shirt that appears to be a permanent part of his costume. As for Mantis, we don't see much, but both actors seemed to be making their way to the set to start filming.

Very little has been revealed about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, though we know the team will find a new foe in Adam Warlock. The High Evolutionary is also expected to factor into this story for a movie that sounds like it will close the door on this iteration of the cosmic superhero team. 

The movie stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Karen Gillan, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel, Pom Klementieff, Sean Gunn, Elizabeth Debicki, Sylvester Stallone's Stakar, Will Poulter, and Chukwudi Iwuji, while Gunn has suggested that there are other casting additions we don't know about. It's shaping up to be an exciting movie, anyway, and we can't wait to see more of these A-Holes.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is set to be released in theaters on May 5, 2023.

@KWilly - yeah, he praises the director but bashes the director's choice for his character... must be awkward playing Drax again.

@TheWalkingCuban - I thought you were talking about Pom for a second, but I gotcha, and quite right.

@MosquitoFarmer - She made the same mistake as Enrique Iglesias when he removed the mole. Tom Holland on the other hand, sure he was in stuff before Spidey, but he removed the mole before real stardom.

If they kill-off Drax during the opening credits because of his political comments...

I think Dave is just wearing a jacket to keep him warm lol not part of his costume

@toylled - nah. It's part of his costume. And it's going to be a major part of his character arc as he needs to find lotion for his sensitive nipples.

Keeping fingers crossed that either GotG3 (or the next MARVELS movie) will feature a flash-back to the destruction of Xandar so that we can FINALLY start laying the ground-work for the origin of NOVA. 😃

Other than that, just hoping that Jimmy Gunn avoids the temptation to repeat the errors (IMO) he committed with Part-2 when he simply doubled-down on all the successful elements of the original. (EXAMPLE: More juvenile jokes, more rainbow color CGI and extended music-video segments.) 😒

@TheLobster - It'll work if they get new director. Doesn't work with James Gunn GOTG

So is Drax finally getting his classic cape or is that a privacy cloak of some kind to cover Dave Bautista between takes? 😅
Timerider84
Timerider84 - 3/19/2022, 6:57 PM
@AC1 - The poncho is not just for privacy from the paparazzi, it's also to keep his costume clean until they are about to shoot any scenes.

@Timerider84 - I figured haha, just with the slightly popped collar it kind of looks a bit like the cape Drax wore in his earlier comic book appearances 😂
