It’s been about five years since Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 was released in theatres and three years since the team was last seen in Avengers: Endgame. Marvel fans are eager to see the lovable space crew again in Thor: Love and Thunder before coming together one final time in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which is currently in production. The threequel is hitting theatres next year, but director James Gunn has something special coming first, the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special. A lot of excitement has been teased for the Disney+ special, including some new characters. Gunn recently revealed to RadioTimes.com that the special is “the greatest thing” he’s ever made. Recently, Karen Gillan (Nebula) had a chat with ScreenRant, and they asked the star if she agreed that the Holiday Special is Gunn’s best work. While Gillan admitted she hasn’t seen the special yet, she does think it will be “extremely funny.” Comic Book Resources shared the interview on Twitter, which caught the attention of Gunn.
Agreed. I look forward so much to every weekend to seeing new cuts come in from our editor Greg “One G” D’Auria. This weekend has been another true pleasure. #GotGHolidaySpecial https://t.co/ACipeCgAwz
