Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special trailer brings the team to Earth

We last saw the Guardians of the Galaxy remaining, and they were galavanting about… the galaxy… with Thor Odinson. Events of Thor: Love & Thunder put an end to that (much to Peter Quill’s relief) and now they’re back on their bullshit. This includes the holiday season.

Comme annoncé in 2020 Holiday Special by Guardians of the Galaxy arrives on Disney Plus this December, and a first look promises exactly the kind of yuletide cheer you’d expect from a bunch of star-hopping a-holes. James Gunn, who wrote and directed the two previous Guardians as well as 2023’s Vol. 2: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, is behind the antics, so you know it’ll be naughty nice.

The trailer shows the Guardians as they realize that it’s the Holiday season on Earth, and the perfect time to cheer up Peter Quill/Star-Lord (Chris Pratt) who is down in the dumps about losing Gamora (Zoe Saldana) with a trip to Earth…and the chance to meet his hero, Kevin Bacon (Kevin Bacon).

Holiday Special by Guardians of the GalaxyDisney Plus hits on November 25, 2022. A few months later, May 5, 2023 saw the launch of Disney Plus. Vol. 3: Guardians of the Galaxy 3, which according to Gunn at the 2022 SDCC Marvel panel, will be the “end of this team.”
