  1. Guardians of the Galaxy 3: James Gunn Denies Adam Warlock Casting Director James Gunn denied that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is looking to cast Adam Warlock for the film.

  2. Director James Gunn denied that any casting for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, including for Adam Warlock, is underway in a tweet responding to The Illuminerdi's original story. This comes after various reports from The Illuminerdi regarding other films and TV shows were confirmed. The tweet and the original story can be found below.

  3. Adam Warlock may be headed to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). • Adam Warlock may be headed to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). • According to The Illuminerdi, Marvel Studios is looking to introduce the cosmic hero in James Gunn's upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. Marvel Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Kevin Feige and co. are reportedly looking to cast "a thirty-year-old Caucasian man, who is described as both a 'superhero type' and a 'ZacEfron type.'"

  4. Adam Warlock's MCU debut was teased during one of the many mid-credits scenes in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. Angered over her defeat at the hands of the Guardians, the secondary antagonist Ayesha (Elizabeth Debicki) builds a cocoon resembling the one from the comics and names the unseen creation inside Adam. According to James Gunn, the character was supposed to appear in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, but was cut during the early treatment process. From there, Adam Warlock's MCU future got a bit more murky. Gunn said that he cut him from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 to "save him for later."

  5. However, he later said that he almost "didn't include the Adam Warlock scene because he was definitely not in Avengers 3 or 4 and we had no plans for him in general." He was asked in 2019 during an Instagram Q&A who would play the character in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, to which James Gunn replied, "I never said Adam Warlock was in the movie.“ Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, Adam Warlock first appeared as a character named Him in Fantastic Four #66-67 in 1967. He was reintroduced as Adam Warlock by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane in Marvel Premiere #1 in 1972. He is one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel Universe, and has the ability to manipulate cosmic energy, along with superhuman strength, durability and speed.

  6. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is just one of the many projects Marvel Studios has in the works based on the superhero team. A holiday special for Disney+ is in development and will film in conjunction with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. I Am Groot, which will star Baby Groot in a series of shorts, will also premiere on the streaming service in the next few years. Written and directed by James Gunn, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is set to begin filming in 2021. Its current release date is targeted for 2023.
