MCU connections

Like the first installment, Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 will be a standalone movie. However, Gunn said that his obsession with Easter-Eggs will be evident throughout the flick, and that some of these will be pretty obscure.

Gunn also said that fans shouldn’t expect anything too revealing during the credits scenes, especially considering his last movie. However, the connection with the larger MCU will be felt. Thor: Ragnarok will present new planets in the universe, and Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 will further expand it.

According to Kevin Feige, four or five new planets will be introduced, with a bit of time spent on Earth, as well. Maybe the Earth scenes will feature Nathan Fillion’s Simon Williams. Who knows?

To be released on May 5, Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 will blow everybody away!
