From Marvel, the studio that brought you the global blockbuster
franchises of “Iron Man,” “Thor,” “Captain America” and “The Avengers,”
comes a new team – the “Guardians of the Galaxy.”
An action-packed, epic space adventure, “Marvel’s Guardians of the
Galaxy” expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where
brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting
bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful
villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe.
To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce
with a quartet of disparate misfits–Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon,
Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the
revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer.
But when Peter discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it
poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a
last, desperate stand – with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.
Directed by James Gunn, the live-action "Guardians of the Galaxy" will
take fans to new corners of the Marvel Universe when it hits theaters
August 1, 2014.

America: The Winter Soldier" on April 4, 2014; "Avengers: Age of Ultron"
