'Guardians of Galaxy' not prequel to 'Avengers': James Gunn

Los Angeles: Director James Gunn says the 'Guardians of the Galaxy' is not a prequel to 'The Avengers' third and fourth part.

The 44-year-old director said the next 'Avengers' film has been split into two parts 'Avengers: Infinity War Part I' and 'Avengers: Infinity War Part II' and there are possibility that 'Guardians' and 'Avengers' might meet somewhere in future but as of now there are no plans, reported Ace Showbiz.

"The last thing I said was something about how the 'Guardians', we really are mostly focused on creating the 'Guardians' as their own separate universe, creating the cosmic side of the Marvel Universe. It isn't all about leading towards Avengers.

"We're not subservient to 'The Avengers'. Whether or not at some point, some Guardians and some Avengers meet up and meet somewhere in the world, whether it's two years from now, three years from now, four years from now, fifteen years from now... I'm not going to say. But 'Guardians of the Galaxy' does not exist as a prequel to 'Avengers' 3 and 4," Gunn said.
Gunn also said he would be keen in joining Marvel projects in future.
