'Guardians of the Galaxy 2' Release Date & News: Sequel Title & Plot Leaked? New Details Confirmed [Rumors]

News regarding the massively successful Marvel hit "Guardians of the Galaxy" have just hit the web allowing fans to know more about the upcoming film.

Sources have reported earlier that the film will be released in May 2017 with shooting to begin in the United States February 2016.
Per the newest report of MasterHerald, screen writing is currently on going and while the first movie was filmed in a London studio, the sequel will be filmed in Pinewood Atlanta Studio.

Details regarding the movie haven't been revealed but in a new report by We Got This Covered, we may have a title on our hands.
Production Preview has shared that the second installment of the movie, directed by James Gunn, will be titled "Guardians 3000."

"On the site's overview of its recently updated titles, Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 makes an appearance in the long, LONG list. It's understandable, too, as Gunn announced last week that should his Marvel-approved pitch birth a knockout script, the movie is eyeing up February 2016 as its start date. What's most interesting here is that in the listing on Production Weekly's website, the title appears as Guardians Of The Galaxy 2(aka 'Guardians 3000')

Guardians 3000 refers to a brand new comic series from writer Dan Abnett which debuted in June 2014. Abnett's first stint writing Guardians began in 2008, when he birthed a new roster of characters - all of whom appeared in last year's flick. His series from last year, however, re-enlists the original 1969 line-up of Guardians. Now, taking into account some past comments from Gunn, the idea of bringing back some of those fan favorites isn't out of the realm of possibility."

Plot Leaks

While details have been few, director Gunn has revealed some tidbits via Christian Post, per Screen Crush.

The site noted that the studio has called his earlier plans "very risky" but given the success of the first film and the studio's trust, they've pushed through with the plot. He revealed that Guardians 2 plot was something he came up with while shooting the first film and it'll answer the origin questions about Quill's father. He adds that two new characters in the film are crucial to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The film will see the return of original cast members that include Chris Pratt (Peter Quinn/ Star Lord), Zoe Saldana (Gamora), Bradley Cooper (Rocket), Vin Diesel (Groot) and Dave Bautista (Drax).

"Guardians of the Galaxy 2" took in $774 million globally last year
