Not content with just writing The Belko Experiment, director James Gunn rounds out the month with the return of Marvel’s space-bound ne’er-do-wells, back to guard the galaxy once again. Following the events of 2014’s screen debut for the rag-tag group, Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket and Baby Groot are joined by newcomer Mantis and former enemies Yondu and Nebula. A bigger team will be needed to take on Ayesha, a cosmic goddess, and uncover the truth behind Star-Lord’s mysterious father (Kurt Russell). Gunn looks set to deliver another thrilling sci-fi superhero epic, with an appropriately ’80s-infused soundtrack. Possibly the biggest movie of the month – and we’re getting it a week before the US.
