First one hasn't even opened yet but is looking like it will be a hit.
San Diego - "Guardians of the Galaxy" hasn't even opened yet, but Marvel Studios announced Saturday that a sequel is already green lit. Currently titled "Guardians of the Galaxy 2," the second installment of Marvel's latest franchise will hit theaters on July 28, 2017. That's three years from now, but make sure you mark your calendar in your smartphone (not that you'll likely still be using that phone three years from now).
The revelation was made during a taped comedic bit featuring franchise star Chris Pratt (Star Lord) and director James Gunn that played during Marvel's annual Saturday Comic-Con panel. The duo recorded the announcement while doing press in London this past week. "Guardians" may turn out to be one of Marvel's most critically acclaimed films. It's currently at a 77 on Metacritic and a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes based on 25 reviews so far. In terms of box office, pre-release tracking shows a $65 million plus.
