When Does Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Take Place? How Is Gamora Alive?
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 takes place after Avengers: Endgame (set in 2023) and Thor: Love and Thunder (circa 2024), so at least six years have passed since Gamora's death in Avengers: Infinity War (set in 2018). The original Gamora died at the hands of her adopted father Thanos (Josh Brolin), but the pre-Guardians Gamora of 2014 time traveled to then-present day 2023 in Endgame before disappearing. The last we saw them in Love and Thunder, the Guardians were still searching the universe for 2014 Gamora, who isn't the Gamora that fell in love with Peter Quill.
Who Is the Villain in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3?
Along with Adam Warlock, who was created in a cacoon by the Sovereign's Golden High Priestess Ayesha (Elizabeth Debicki) to destroy the Guardians, the team will face the cybernetically-enhanced Rocket's creator: the High Evolutionary. "My sacred mission is to create the perfect society," the mad scientist says of his experiments, but Rocket counters that the Evolutionary doesn't "want to make things perfect — he just hated things the way they are."
What Is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 About?
According to the official logline: "In Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 our beloved band of misfits are looking a bit different these days. Peter Quill, still reeling from the loss of Gamora, must rally his team around him to defend the universe along with protecting one of their own. A mission that, if not completed successfully, could quite possibly lead to the end of the Guardians as we know them."
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 opens only in theaters May 5th.
