Guardians of the Galaxy

7 movies in this series

They're not Earth's Mightiest Heroes. They're not the smartest heroes. They're not even particularly good at following instructions. But somehow, they're the heroes the galaxy ended up with.

In this series, Now Playing Podcast follows the adventures of the Guardians of the Galaxy across the Marvel Cinematic Universe. From a band of outlaws, thieves, assassins, and bounty hunters brought together by circumstance to a found family willing to risk everything for one another, we'll review every chapter of the Guardians saga, including feature films, special presentations, crossover appearances, and whatever cosmic adventures may await them in the future.

Along the way we'll travel to distant worlds, battle cosmic threats, dance our way through galactic crises, and meet unforgettable characters like Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, Groot, Mantis, Nebula, and the many allies and enemies who cross their path. Equal parts space opera, action-comedy, and heartfelt family drama, the Guardians series carved out a unique corner of the MCU unlike anything else in the franchise.

Join us as we explore the laughs, the music, the emotional gut punches, and the interstellar adventures that turned Marvel's most unlikely team into some of its most beloved heroes. Because in the end, they may be a bunch of a-holes... but they're our bunch of a-holes.
