All of our favorite characters have returned, including Star-Lord, Drax, Rocket Raccoon, Gamora and even Groot, who appears to be growing back nicely:
Along with original five heroes, Yondu and Nebula will be along for the ride, this time assisting the oddball crew rather than trying to kill them.
Here’s Marvel’s full synopsis for the upcoming film:
“Set to the backdrop of ‘Awesome Mixtape #2,’ Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 continues the team’s adventures as they traverse the outer reaches of the cosmos.

Old foes become new allies and fan-favorite characters from the classic comics will come to our heroes’ aid as the Marvel cinematic universe continues to expand.”
