I Am Groot: “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” to Make Broadcast Television Premiere on ABC

The latest installment in the popular Marvel Studios franchise will air on “The Wonderful World of Disney” later this month.

One of Marvel Studios’ most popular films in recent years will soon be making its broadcast television debut on ABC.

What’s Happening:

  • ABC continues a decades-long tradition by airing The Wonderful World of Disney most Sunday nights, which in recent years has expanded to include films from studios acquired by Disney, such as Marvel.
  • Later this month, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will make its broadcast television premiere on ABC, airing Sunday, September 28th from 8:01-11:00 p.m. ET.
  • In Marvel Studios’ Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, our beloved band of misfits are settling into life on Knowhere. But it isn’t long before their lives are upended by the echoes of Rocket’s turbulent past. Peter Quill, still reeling from the loss of Gamora, must rally his team around him on a dangerous mission to save Rocket’s life—a mission that, if not completed successfully, could quite possibly lead to the end of the Guardians as we know them.
