James Gunn Shares Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Shot and Now Marvel Fans Are Worried About Mantis

Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 3 director James Gunn has been trying to keep Marvel fans (somewhat) in the loop as production has been going on – but today’s teaser has fans holding their breath in dread. Gunn posted a doddle of a character looking (surprised? Horrified? Elated?) and it looks like none other than Mantis (Pom Klementieff). As a fan-favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe character (since making her debut in Guardians 2), even the thought that something tragic could happen to Mantis has Guardians of the Galaxy 3 fans freaking out!
