Yes, you’ve guessed it; the hotly anticipated Guardians of the Galaxy has a brand new extended trailer! The first trailer did an exemplary job at introducing the characters to audiences, through a hilarious prison-style line-up, whereas this new extended trailer sees the characters get involved in a hell of a lot more action, and also features a clip of a pretty epic fight sequence between Karen Gillan’s Nebula and Zoe Saldana’s Gamora. Whilst we try to contain our excitement levels (perhaps at 12%), it has to be said that the trailer does make the film look like one of Marvel’s finest works to date, with the casting being spot on and the characters being thoroughly interesting (talking racoon? Yes, please!).
In the new extended trailer we can see Rocket the Raccoon (Bradley Cooper) getting plenty more opportunities to voice his opinion, most notably being his opinion on Peter Quill’s (Chris Pratt) plan, as Groot (Vin Diesel) sticks up for Quill. Rocket looks like he’ll be one of the comedic elements to the film, with Saldana’s Gamora looking every bit the capable assassin. Guardians of the Galaxy unsurprisingly centres on the ‘Guardians’ as they call themselves, after Quill steals a mysterious Orb and is hunted down by Ronan, who is working for Thanos. With Nebula (Thanos’ adopted daughter and raised as a sibling to Gamora) and Ronan (Lee Pace) hot on Quill’s tail, he teams up with the reluctant ‘Guardians’; Gamora; Drax the Destroyer; Groot; Rocket the Raccoon; in order to save the galaxy.
Marvel’s latest adventure, Guardians of the Galaxy, hit cinemas in the UK on the 31st July and the USA on the 1st August, and it looks like a film not to be missed!
