LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Marvel is set to bid farewell to the ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ with the third and final movie in the franchise that will conclude the story of the current team. However, that doesn’t mean every character will die in the upcoming movie, although some surely will meet their ends. Despite being the last movie in the current ‘Guardians' franchise, 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3' will introduce two new characters in the movie that might play an important role in future MCU projects.

The movie wrapped filming in May 2022 and director James Gunn confirmed that the third ‘GOTG’ movie will be the final installment of the franchise. The trailers seemed to confirm the same that “it’s time to face the music” for the Guardians who are set to take the fight to their enemies. Fans are really worried about Rocket Racoon and feel that the character might become a major casualty in the movie.
