Guardians of the Galaxy 3 an Avengers Infinity War prequel?
For the longest time, it has been rumoured that Guardians of the Galaxy will be a prequel set before the events of Avengers: Infinity War, and now, director James Gunn has offered a clarification on that front.

At the end of Infinity War, the villainous Thanos ‘killed’ half the universe’s population, and half the Avengers’ too, including several members of the Guardians of the Galaxy.
“Here’s the thing, I think it’s important to remember anything is possible in the MCU,” Anthony Russo recently told HuffPost, adding, “Just because there’s a sequel on the books doesn’t mean ... people become accustomed to time moving linearly in the MCU. That doesn’t necessarily have to be the case. There’s a lot of very inventive ways of where the story can go from here.”
The next two movies on Marvel’s slate - July’s Ant-Man and the Wasp and February 2019’s Captain Marvel - are both sets before the events of Infinity War. Many fans believe that these films will introduce the Quantum Realm, which will allow for characters previously thought to be dead to be resurrected. Coupled with set images from Avengers 4 and the dominant fan theory that the film will involve time travel and alternate dimensions, it seems like death could be challenged in the MCU.
An unofficial plot synopsis for Avengers 4 - the first of its kind - hinted as much. “A culmination of 22 interconnected films the fourth instalment of the Avengers saga will draw audiences to witness the turning point of this epic journey. Our beloved heroes will truly understand how fragile this reality is and the sacrifices that must be made to uphold it,” it said.
Infinity War recently became the fourth film to cross the $2 billion mark at the box office, following Avatar, Titanic and Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
