Chris Pratt’s Star-Lord Was Originally Planned To Lead The Annihilators In MCU

One of the most beloved figures in the MCU is Star-Lord, the roguish leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy. Chris Pratt’s portrayal made him an unforgettable character. While Star-Lord is primarily associated with cosmic adventures, recent reports suggest differently.

According to TheCosmicCircus, Marvel Studios had ambitious plans for the character to form the Annihilators, a powerful team of cosmic heroes. However, these plans have been put on hold. 

The Upcoming ‘Avengers’ Films Have Put These Plans On Hold

The Annihilators are a group of powerful cosmic beings who unite to defend the universe from various threats. The team typically consists of members like Ronan the Accuser, Nova, Gladiator, and Beta Ray Bill. These characters possess incredible abilities and cosmic armor.

Official plans for Star-Lord wanted him to make the Annihilators. However, these plans have been put on hold due to the upcoming Avengers movies. The next phase of the MCU is set to culminate in a new Avengers movie where the heroes will most likely go against a cosmic threat. 

The inclusion of Star-Lord and the Guardians of the Galaxy in this cosmic adventure seems inevitable. While the Annihilators may not be part of the immediate plans for Star-Lord, their appearance in the MCU is still a possibility. Moreover, the character’s popularity and the rich history of the Annihilators in the comics make them a natural fit.

Marvel Studios has been keeping fans on their toes with exciting news about upcoming projects. While there hasn’t been an official announcement for a second season of Moon Knight’, insiders suggest that the studio has a “really exciting” idea in the works.

Another highly anticipated series is Ironheart. The show will introduce Riri Williams, the brilliant young inventor who takes on the mantle of Iron Man. Rumors have persisted about Mephisto, a powerful demon in Marvel comics, making his debut in ‘Ironheart’. 

While the character’s role is said to be “very light supporting,” his appearance could have significant implications. Moreover, Marvel has already teased that the demon exists in ‘Agatha All Along’. So, it’s only a matter of time. Regardless of whether Star-Lord ever forms the Annihilators, his future in the MCU looks bright.
