Explained simply
Guardians of the Galaxy is a Marvel film series about a group of unlikely allies travelling through space. Chris Pratt plays Peter Quill, also known as Star-Lord, and James Gunn directed all three films, released between 2014 and 2023.
Gunn later became co-head of DC Studios, a separate company behind superhero films and television, alongside producer Peter Safran. The two have now left those leadership roles, though they are expected to keep producing some DC projects. Their change of roles has prompted interest in whether Gunn might work with Marvel again; Pratt has said he would be open to another Guardians film if Gunn wanted to make one.
