Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) follows Peter Quill, an adventurer who finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by the powerful villain Ronan. To evade Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of misfits—Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon; Groot, a tree-like humanoid; the deadly and enigmatic Gamora; and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. When Quill discovers the orb’s true power and the threat it poses to the cosmos, he must rally his ragtag team for a last, desperate stand—with the fate of the galaxy at stake.
