It’s been a long wait, but Marvel has finally given us a better look at Guardians of the Galaxy. Not that there was anything wrong with that first trailer, of course, but the lack of voiceover from Bradley Cooper (as Rocket Raccoon) or Vin Diesel (as Groot) felt like a huge, glaring omission. Luckily, this new clip rectifies that problem, and as we expected, they both sound fantastic. Check out the second trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy below, courtesy of Facebook.
The tone is about the same as the first footage we saw, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. This continues to look like a lot of fun, and should serve as a nice expansion to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Here’s hoping the finished product delivers as well as the promotional material.
Guardians of the Galaxy opens on August 1.
From Marvel, the studio that brought you the global blockbuster franchises of Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers, comes a new team—the Guardians of the Galaxy. An action-packed, epic space adventure, Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits—Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand—with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy,” which first appeared in comic books in Marvel Super-Heroes, Issue #18 (Jan. 1969), stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, featuring Vin Diesel as the voice of Groot, Bradley Cooper as the voice of Rocket, Lee Pace, Michael Rooker, Karen Gillan, Djimon Hounsou, with John C. Reilly, Glenn Close as Commander Rael and Benicio del Toro as The Collector.
