Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol....4?

Disney and Marvel have done a pretty good job of keeping their movies at the number three.  There's Iron Man, Captain America, Thor...oh, wait.  That one's getting a fourth installment.  This can almost bee overlooked because it sounds like Disney/Marvel are set to revamp the Thor franchise by making Natalie Portman's Jane Foster the new Thor. So is it really a "fourthquel?"

Writer and director James Gunn has said that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will be his last outing with this crew of space pirates, but that hasn't curbed Marvel's desire to keep the franchise going.  It just sounds like we will get a new set of characters for Vol. 4.

There is a rumor going around that the series could keep moving forward after Gunn's Vol. 3.  They will introduce a new line up of characters that will continue to save the universe, and tie up all of the loose ends of the current crop of misfits.  This means they will either go their separate ways, or be killed of in the next movie.  The most likely character to eat it will probably be Rocket.

Guardians Vol. 3 is still a long ways away, do don't expect any official announcement on this development any time soon, but it is worth mentioning since it's one of Marvel's biggest franchises.  I'll keep you updated if I hear anything else.  Let me know what you think about this in the comments section below, or you can find me on Facebook and I have now been posting on a MeWe page as well, so look for me there and make sure that you follow my page.
