The universe is an expansive place, and nobody knows that better than James Gunn. The director of the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise has been the major architect of all things cosmic within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, turning the lovable space pirates into a household name. You have characters like Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) that are from Earth, but the vast majority of the franchise takes place elsewhere. In fact, Earth is only featured in a few scenes between the two Guardians features that have been released.

First part takes place in Andromeda. Ego is further away, in a galaxy on the edge of the universe, probably MACS0647-JD or something. https://t.co/xWF7Cp7nz5
