There’s loads of pleasure to look ahead to in upcoming Marvel films and upcoming Marvel TV exhibits, together with the Avengers, New Avengers, X-Males and Incredible 4 teaming up for Avengers: Doomsday in December 2026. Nonetheless, in the case of the Guardians of the Galaxy, it seems our time with this group of cosmic heroes is over, at the very least for now, following the discharge of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in 2023. However, Vin Diesel is pitching extra appearances for his character Groot, and I actually wouldn’t thoughts if the story he has in thoughts got here to fruition.
After we left off with the strolling and speaking tree on the finish of Guardians 3, he lastly bought to say one thing apart from “I’m Groot” and was serving on the brand new incarnation of this staff alongside Rocket, Kraglin, Adam Warlock, Cosmo, Phyla and Adam’s pet Blurp. So if there comes a day when Marvel Studios is prepared to carry again Groot, the place does he go from right here? Right here’s what Diesel needed to say on Instagram about this topic:
I used to be at all times fascinated by the origins of how the Hobbit got here to be… the concept it began as a narrative a father would inform his youngsters round a campfire. As you already know, I’ve been deep in improvement and writing on so most of the characters I’ve grown a bond with. Only in the near past, I learn to my household, The Arbor King… the lengthy awaited story of Groot’s return to Planet X… There’s films the world needs, my unimaginable followers need and naturally those the youngsters need. We’re Groot!
This caption was hooked up to 2 footage: the primary exhibits Vin Diesel hugging his daughter whereas carrying a black shirt that has “I’m Groot” written in white letters on the again, and the second depicts fan artwork of a badass, glowy Groot head to head with a bearded Hulk. What precisely is happening right here? Effectively, Diesel speaking about “improvement” and the truth that there’s no present story known as The Arbor King makes it seems like that is the identify of a script that Diesel has been working for Groot, and he felt comfy sufficient to share together with his household.
The Planet X element particularly additional proves that, as Vin Diesel mentioned again in March that “Disney needs their Planet X,” which he jokingly described as Marvel’s most anticipated film. I would definitely be right down to see this story unfold, particularly if it could enable for Diesel to proceed saying extra dialogue for the character apart from “I’m Groot.” Not solely would we lastly get to satisfy different members of the Flora colossus species, however we’d additionally see the total extent of King Groot’s energy.
What’s unclear, nevertheless, is that if that is one thing that Marvel Studios formally has in improvement or if the corporate is ready to learn this script earlier than making a choice. I’m additionally curious if Hulk is definitely in The Arbor King or if Diesel simply picked that paintings as a result of it seems to be cool. Fingers crossed we get clarification on the place issues stand with this undertaking quickly, as a result of if Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 4 is off the desk. I’d undoubtedly welcome reuniting with Groot in this sort of cinematic setting.
