About Guardians of the Galaxy

In the vibrant and action-packed world of Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy," the story follows a ragtag group of intergalactic criminals, each with their own unique set of skills and motives. At the helm of this group is Peter Quill, played by Chris Pratt, who goes by the name Star-Lord. Quill is a charming and quick-witted outlaw with a mysterious past, having been abducted from Earth at a young age and raised among a group of thieves and smugglers.

One day, Quill's life takes a dramatic turn when he stumbles upon an ancient orb, which turns out to be a powerful and dangerous artifact sought after by the villainous Ronan the Accuser. With Ronan's forces hot on his tail, Quill finds himself in the crosshairs of a manhunt and is forced to go on the run. Along the way, he teams up with a group of unlikely allies, including the deadly and green-skinned Gamora, played by Zoe Saldaña, who has a complicated past of her own.

As Quill and his newfound companions navigate the dangers of the cosmos, they quickly realize that the orb holds the key to stopping Ronan's plans for destruction and chaos. Together, they embark on a thrilling and hilarious journey to save the galaxy and prove that even the most unlikely heroes can make a difference. With its memorable characters, stunning visuals, and exciting action, "Guardians of the Galaxy" is a must-watch for any Marvel fan.

Guardians of the Galaxy is part of the Guardians of the Galaxy Collection, together with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 .
