Chris Pratt Reaffirms Star-Lord Will Return in the MCU and Plans Are Being Made Right Now

Chris Pratt has announced that Star-Lord's return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is currently being planned. The character, who was last seen in 2023, was promised to make a comeback at the end of his previous appearance in the credits. In an interview with The Playlist, Pratt stated that Marvel is actively discussing the character's return, but he is not revealing the exact timeline.

Pratt expressed his positive relationship with Marvel executives Kevin Feige and Lou D’Esposito, emphasizing the team's commitment to fulfilling the promise made to fans. While Avengers: Doomsday is imminent, Pratt is not among the confirmed cast members. Some actors are rumored to appear in the film, but nothing has been officially confirmed.

Director James Gunn has hinted that he has no plans to create another Guardians of the Galaxy film, given his new role at DC Studios. However, Star-Lord's character still resides within the MCU, and his return might manifest in various forms such as a TV series, a solo film, or even a new crew in a future Guardians of the Galaxy installment helmed by another director.

The possibilities are endless, but fans can rest assured that Star-Lord is indeed making his way back to the MCU.
