A lot of the speculation is already landing on <em>Avengers: Secret Wars<\/em>, while earlier comments from <em>Guardians of the Galaxy<\/em> filmmaker James Gunn about a <em>Legendary Star-Lord<\/em> project, along with <strong>Pratt\u2019s own pitch<\/strong> to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, suggest Marvel has also been exploring more character-driven options.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For now, Marvel Studios is still keeping the <strong>exact details<\/strong> of his return under wraps.
