It is rumored that the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy 2 release date is already in the works, and this time, it is set to feature less humans, and more women. 

Director James Gunn has reportedly hinted that he wants to add more femininity to the second film. Although he didn't really name any characters that he wants to put in the new film, spectators are guessing that characters with the likes of Martyr, Angela, and Mantis Moondragon are very likely to be featured.

Additionally, James is also reported to have hinted that humans would be playing a much smaller role in the sequel, the director reportedly wants Chris Pratt's character, Peter Quill, be the only human present to add more focus to his character.

It is also reported that the year of release will be in 2017, and this information have been exciting fans all over the world due to the success of the first movie.

Aside from the Guardians of the Galaxy release date being rumored, the first movie definitely raked in a lot, as expected. According to businessweek.com,

"Guardians has now grossed $294 million in the U.S., according to Box Office Mojo. That's more than last year's Man of Steel, Warner Brothers' expensive 2013 Superman relaunch, which took in $291 Million Domestically. Box Office Mojo sees the triumph of Guardians over Man of Steel as 'noteworthy given the discrepancy in pre-existing fan bases for these two superhero movies.' To put it another way: The most famous superhero of all time has been dispatched by a once-negligible team of Marvel characters barely known even to avid comic-book fans before the film's opening.

The multiple-weekend victory of Guardians is telling, too. Few movies have such staying power. Box Office Mojo says they include Avatar, the Hunger Games series, and the Dark Knight, Warner Brothers' Batman franchise. Who would have expected such a formidable performance from Guardians, a team of characters that include a wisecracking raccoon and a lumbering humanoid tree?"

What do you think, readers? Think Guardians of the Galaxy 2 release date is true? Will the future movie do better in the box office than its prequel? Sound off in the comments below!
