Marvel and Disney premiered the first Guardians of the Galaxy trailer tonight on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and have now made it available online.
The film, which aims to expand the Marvel Cinematic Universe beyond Iron Man, Captain America, Thor and the rest of The Avengers journeys into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan (Lee Pace), 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 (voiced by Bradley Cooper), a gun-toting raccoon, Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel), a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora (Zoe Saldana) and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer (David Bautista). But when Peter 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.
The film hits theaters on August 1 and is directed by James Gunn (Slither). Check out the trailer and several new pictures directly below and on the second page.
