'Guardians of the Galaxy 2' Release Date, Cast & Trailer: Plot & Character Details Spilled By Director

Waiting for "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" to drop? These tidbits about the upcoming sequel may help you stave off that itch for the next "Awesome Mix."

According to director James Gunn, the five heroes of the first movie will be back. Also, he may also be adding new faces to the group. ScreenRant said Gunn would like to have "at least two female Guardians this time around."

In a recent interview, Gunn revealed that Yondu, whom Peter Quill betrayed in the original movie by swapping the Infinity stone he promised to give the man with a troll doll, won't exactly be going after the hero's neck in retaliation for the treachery in "Guardians of the Galaxy 2." In fact, we will reportedly be seeing that Yondu is actually is a "big softie," as noted by International Business Times.

Surprisingly, it even looks like Yondu will actually like the doll Peter swapped the stone with.

"Maybe the doll will mean more to him than the Infinity stone," the director was quoted by the site as saying.

Isn't that just so... "Guardians of the Galaxy"?

The director also revealed what "Awesome Mix Vol 2" will be like. Well, at least two of its songs, that is.

"The director shared that the fans have already heard the song 'Ain't no mountain high enough' from the tape. The song 'I want you back' will probably feature in the next movie," IBT said.

Awesome!

Aside from these hints, it's been said that the scale of the film is that of "an entire universe" and is "not a single story," as noted by ScreenRant. Gunn also mentioned he may be following the same "outside-the-box thinking that led to 'Guardians'' success" in making the sequel.

"The Guardians are going to continuously change. I think that some of the characters are probably worse than what we think they are, and other characters are better than what we think they are. It's going to be interesting to learn a little bit about that as time goes on," Gunn said.

Meanwhile, the director and Chris Pratt, who played Peter Quill, were recently shown lying in bed reading comic books on the cover of The Hollywood Reporter's January 2015 issue.

"Every rule said, 'You don't make a movie with a talking tree,' 'You don't spend this much money on a raccoon with a gun,'" Pratt revealed, speaking about the unexpected success of the Marvel flick. "For me, I was like, 'Oh, so this movie is going to bomb. Done. This is the end of my career.'"

"I actually personally felt that people needed the color," Gunn said. "They needed the humor and the fun -- they just didn't know it yet."
