Will Thor Appear in the Guardians of the Galaxy Movies?

The question of whether Thor will make any more appearances in the

Guardians of the Galaxy franchise has been a point of speculation for many Marvel fans. With the third and final Guardians of the Galaxy movie on the horizon, it seems that the answer is becoming clearer.

The Final Guardians

James Gunn, the director of the Guardians of the Galaxy series, has stated that these films are wrapping up a story. When asked if there were any changes in the script due to the upcoming 'Thor: Love and Thunder,' Gunn remained cryptic. His response suggested that he was prepared for the next phase of the MCU, but did not specify any definitive changes.

Thor: Love and Thunder

With 'Thor: Love and Thunder' in the works, questions have emerged about the potential crossover. Some speculate that the Guardians might feature prominently in Thor's new adventure, while others believe that Thor and his love interest, Jane Foster, might continue their journey separately.

James Gunn's Take on Guardians and Thor

James Gunn has made it clear that the third Guardians of the Galaxy movie is the conclusion of his trilogy. He reportedly said that the script did not significantly change after the events of the 'Avengers' movies. One possible interpretation is that Thor's role might have been accounted for in the script, or that Thor might not appear in the Guardians' final movie.

Fans have also dug into Gunn's previous statements, where he expressed that his character was becoming someone else, not the one he was originally meant to be. This suggests that Thor's integration into the Guardians was a significant and intentional choice. Furthermore, a quick search reveals that the Guardians will indeed feature in Thor: Love and Thunder, and Thor will feature in the third Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Thor, in his new form as Jane Foster, does not wield Mjolnir traditionally, adding another layer of uncertainty to his role in the upcoming films.

Conclusion

While the answer to whether Thor will appear in the remaining Guardians of the Galaxy movies is not definitive, the evidence points towards a limited or speculative role. Thor, in his new form, might not be the central focus of the upcoming Guardians films. Nevertheless, the possibility remains that some scenes or crossovers might still feature the pair together, given the established dynamics between Thor and the Guardians.

The upcoming films promise to explore new territory and redefining well-loved characters. As with all things in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the best way to know for sure is to wait for the final announcements and releases.
