Guardians of the Galaxy, a Marvel property, could be heading for our screens some time in the future, if speculation is to be believed. A while back Kevin Feige (Mr. Marvel) said there was potential for them and slashfilm are reporting that yes indeed, a movie is in active development. Sure, that means it could be a decade away, but it’s interesting nonetheless.
Guardians is, in many ways, like Green Lantern as it features a team of space-based superheroes from different areas of the galaxy. It was rebooted in 2008 and features very alien characters – including a Racoon – so is a lot more ‘out there’ than the current crop, but with Thor’s success surely Marvel will be trying out their more fantastical properties soon enough. Indeed, there may even be some hints in The Avengers/Avengers 2 (you know that’ll happen) – after all, Marvel are building a universe on screen, and Avengers is just the start.
