Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3's James Gunn Teases Rocket Raccoon's Story

GameSpot's sister site Comicbook.com recently hosted a "Quarantine Watch Party" of Guardians of the Galaxy with director James Gunn, where the director watched the film and tweeted about it alongside fans, answering questions as they came in. The site has collected some of the best insights to come out of the watch party, which includes some details about the upcoming third film in the series and some details about Gunn's process working with Marvel.
Responding to a question about Rocket Raccoon's origins, and whether GOTG Chapter 3 will dig into them further, Gunn said that the third movie will pay off on longterm plans for the character. He says that a lot of what we've seen so far "sets up what I've been planning for Rocket all along."
