Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 Release Date Rumors: Is It Coming Out?

The potential release date for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 has been on the minds of Marvel fans ever since the release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which featured Rocket’s origin story and saw the rag-tag team race against time to save his life after Rocket is nearly killed by Adam Warlock.

Here’s all the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.

Is there a Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 release date?

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 does not have an official release date.

This is because James Gunn revealed via Twitter on May 15, 2023, that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 has no real chance of happening. Moreover, Gunn stated that while another Guardians of the Galaxy film could be made in the future, it would not feature the same cast from the previous three Guardians of the Galaxy films and would also not be called “Vol. 4”.

Additionally, James Gunn has also shifted all his attention to DC Studios as its new co-CEO, which would very likely not leave him any time to even think of developing a fourth Guardians film. Moreover, several cast members such as Dave Bautista and Zoe Saldana have stated that they are done with the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise and Marvel as a whole.

However, a potential fourth film with a brand new cast was teased in the mid-credits scene of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 where the roster included Rocket Raccoon (the leader), Groot, Kraglin, Adam Warlock, Blurp, Cosmo, and Phyla-Vell. The return of Chris Pratt’s Star-Lord was also teased in the post-credits scene where it said: “The Legendary Star-Lord Will Return”, though it is unknown as to whether it will be the potential fourth film or a separate solo project for the character.

Where is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 coming out?

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 isn’t confirmed to release in theaters.

It will be interesting to see what kind of story will be depicted in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4, especially as the old team comprised of Star-Lord, Nebula, Drax, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, and Mantis was dissolved and a new team comprising of Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Adam Warlock, Phyla-Vell, Kraglin, Cosmo, and Blurp, was formed in its place.
