They're baaaack! The cast of Guardians of the Galaxy are together again as prodiction on the sequel starts ramping up with rehearsal sessions featuring key cast members Chris Pratt (Star-Lord), Zoe Saldana (Gamora), Dave Bautista (Drax), Sean Gunn (Kraglin/Rocket Raccoon), and Michael Rooker (Yondu). The cast have also been sharing various photos from their own respective social media accounts, and with a release date of May 5th, 2017, we're no doubt going to find out a lot more about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 in the coming months. For now, here are the first behind the scenes photos courtesy of director James Gunn. They don't reveal much, but are very cool regardless.

When someone's screwing up a scene during rehearsals I show them Dave Bautista (Batista) as an example of good acting. With Zoe Saldana, Chris Pratt, and Sean Gunn. #GotGVol2

Guardians of The Galaxy IS over rated, but it was better than

MrCamw1 - 2/1/2016, 8:08 PM

@Scorpo - I wouldn't call it over rated, but yes it much better than Thor 2.

Scorpo - 2/1/2016, 8:10 PM

@MrCamw1 So many people praise it. It was alright. Would put it in my top 5 marvel movies, no higher than 3 though.
Cap 2
Age of Ultron
GOTG

So what, I like Age of Ultron a lot.
People watched it once and then were like "PIECE OF SHIT UGH GARBAGE"
But after a second viewing it was amazing.

@Scorpo - Definitely wouldn't consider it overrated. I personally loved GOTG. But yes, it's definitely better than Thor 2.

Scorpo - 2/1/2016, 8:12 PM

@TheRationalNerd is the Lego Batman movie in 2017?
is that still happening?

TheRationalNerd - 2/1/2016, 8:17 PM

@Scorpo

Now that you mentioned it, yupp! It's still coming. Should serve as great advertisement for the kiddies before Affleck gets his own solo flick. lol

Scorpo - 2/1/2016, 8:22 PM

@TheRationalNerd I still think it would be hilarious if BvS flops (quality) but the Lego Batman movie does amazing and is praised
Wont happen, but it would be hilarious

Scorpo - 2/1/2016, 8:13 PM

Oh shit, Flash and Agent Carter tomorrow!
Arrow on Wednesday
Legends of Tomorrow on Thursday

I won't have time to watch Man of Steel, and Batman Begins tomorrow :O
