The Marvel Cinematic Universe is showing no signs of slowing down, constantly releasing new content in theaters and streaming with a Disney+ subscription . While there's no shortage of stories to follow, a few stand out as fan favorites. Fans who watched the Marvel movies in order know that chief among them is James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, which wrapped up with Vol. 3 . Drax actor Dave Bautista is down for a Guardians reunion, but not where you'd expect.
Honestly, take my money now. The Guardians cast has stellar chemistry, and it would be fun to see them back on the big screen in something set outside of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Although fans are no doubt still hoping to see the team back together in an upcoming Marvel movie .
With James Gunn the new co-CEO of the DCU, he's not expected to return to the MCU anytime soon. After all, what's the Guardians franchise without his vision? Some moviegoers want to see the cast reunite on a DC project, with Gunn once again behind the camera. In the same interview, Bautista addressed this possibility, saying:
Dave Bautista is seemingly happy with a break from Drax's intense makeup, and there are a number of character that fans want to see him play if he pivoted to DC. He's reacted to Bane rumors , but he's expressed interest in putting his spin on Lex Luthor. Hopefully we lands a role in the DCU sooner rather than later, preferably alongside some of his Guardians buddies.
The Guardians of the Galaxy franchise is streaming now on Disney+, and the MCU will return to theaters with Captain America: Brave New World on February 14th. For now, check the 2025 movie release dates .
