Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 wraps production, confirmed for San Diego Comic-Con appearance

June 17, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Director James Gunn has taken to Facebook to share a video of himself and Chris Pratt announcing that filming has wrapped on next year’s hotly-anticipated Marvel sequel Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, as well as confirming that he’ll be bringing the movie – and the cast – to San Diego Comic-Con next month.

“We, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, are coming to San Diego Comic-Con this year,” states Gunn. “I’m going to be there, Chris Pratt is going to be there, a bunch of the gang is going to be there and we’re going to show you guys something pretty cool.”

Check out the video here…

Just last week, Gunn teased an appearance in San Diego, as did Scott Derrickson, director of November’s Benedict Cumberbatch-headlined Doctor Strange. So, after being absent last year, it looks like Marvel will be back with a bang in Hall H next month. Perhaps we’ll even get to see some of the cast of Thor: Ragnarok and Spider-Man: Homecoming, both of which will be in production by that point.

Set to the all-new sonic backdrop of Awesome Mixtape #2, “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” continues the team’s adventures as they unravel the mystery of Peter Quill’s true parentage.
