A Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 The fan artist attracted Lylla as a member of the team.
One of the newest additions to the GOTG film franchise, Lylla the Otter is an old friend from Rocket’s past whom he met during his time with the High Evolutionary. Gera Chaves (@Widdershins_Art) created the art, which features a detailed image of Lylla wearing her own Guardians of the Galaxy costume. Chaves also shouted out James Gunn in his post, presenting the fan art as a game What if…? screenplay to the director of the film.
Guardians of the Galaxy 3 delves into Rocket’s tragic backstory, showing the horrific experiences inflicted upon him by the High Evolutionary and its cohorts. During this period, he encounters several other animal victims, including Lylla the otter. Together, the group dreams of the day when they will be free to start new lives in the High Evolutionary’s new world. Lylla also plays a key role in helping Rocket choose his name. Unfortunately, their carefree life is cut short when Rocket discovers the High Evolutionary’s true plans for them.
Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is a huge success
The new MCU movie is a huge domestic and international hit. Since May 16, Guardians 3 earned over $528.8 million worldwide, a major box office milestone. The film’s second weekend box office fare was also much better than expected for post-pandemic films from Marvel Studios. While the second weekend box office drop rate is around 60%, GOTG Vol. 3 only dropped to 47.6%. This is significantly lower compared to other recent MCU releases, as Black Panther: Wakanda Forever And Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantamania drops to 63% and 70%, respectively.
Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is unquestionably a financial success for Marvel and Disney. However, the film also contains many graphic scenes of animal abuse that showcase High Evolutionary’s brutal treatment of Rocket, Lylla, and others. While some have criticized GOTG Vol. 3 for these controversial scenes, the film’s cast members openly defended the director’s choice to include them. Miriam Shor, who plays Recorder Vin in the film, explained that the scenes were necessary for the story to have its full impact. “The stakes have to be this high for the story to work,” Shor said. “…If you’re a villain in these movies, you can’t get away with it, because it doesn’t work.”
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is now in theaters.
