A look at the release date and time for Disney Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 as you’ll obviously want to see it as soon as possible.
Can you wait another moment to see Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2? Yeah, at this point it’s probably a safe bet to say that no one can. This is by far one of the most anticipated films of 2017. The first film from James Gunn came as a surprise with how well done and enjoyable it was throughout. As we all know, though, the sophomore effort for such things can be a little bit more trying. With that said, the outlook is quite favorable for the second chapter of Peter Quill/Star Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket Raccoon and of course Baby Groot.
For some part, the success of the initial Guardians of the Galaxy film was due to the fact that people were unfamiliar with these characters. Thus, to see this sort of rag-tag group of misfits working together in space, it was delightful. Toss in the wit of Chris Pratt as Star Lord and how he interacted with his co-stars and it was just a wonderful all-around experience.
We’ll get to see plenty more of that in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, surely. However, there’s also much more at play here. Everyone will recall the power-thirsty Thanos now on the hunt for Infinity Stones from other films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That will almost definitely come into play in some capacity.
Perhaps more important than that in the second film in the Guardians series, though, will be the revelation of Peter Quill’s father. How the film decides to tackle this will be interesting, as will seeing how this plays into the plot of the movie.
With so much buzz and anticipation, it’s no wonder that movie-goers are pining to see the film. So, when will Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 be released?
The first early showings of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 in the United States will be on Thursday, May 4 at 7:00 p.m. local time. The official release date for the film is on Friday, May 5, however. Outside of the US, it’s actually been released already in many countries worldwide. For example, the movie came out in the United Kingdom, Spain, Brazil, Germany and many other countries this past week between April 26-28.
