Easily my most anticipated release among the upcoming summer blockbusters, Guardians of the Galaxy introduces moviegoers to a cast of lesser known comic book characters and gives us a better look at the cosmic side of the Marvel cinematic universe. Written and directed by James Gunn, who is no stranger to horror fans, we have the brand new trailer for you to check out right now:

“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 blanace. “
