Thor and the Guardians of the Galaxy will cross paths fairly early on in Avengers: Infinity War when they discover the hero floating in outer space but the signs are now pointing to Star-Lord and the team showing up sooner than expected. According to Screen Rant, they were shown concept art from Thor: Ragnarok featuring Asgard, Sakaar, and the Milano. The latter is, of course, Peter Quill's spaceship.
When producer Brad Winderbaum was asked about that image, he refused to say too much but did at least shed further light on the connections the threequel is going to have with the Guardians franchise.
"We’re definitely leaning into Jack [Kirby] more heavily than Guardians. There are elements of Guardians that will work their way into our film, both stylistically and narratively. In the sense that, like all the Earthbound heroes feel like they’re living and breathing in the same air, certainly now that we’re in space it feels, in a very MCU way, that we’re living and breathing in the same air."
It's been clear for a while that Thor: Ragnarok is heading down the same route as Guardians of the Galaxy in terms of look and tone and that's sure to make a collision between characters from these two very different properties extremely interesting and much easier for moviegoers to swallow. So, what will the Guardians be getting up to here? We'll let you share your thoughts on that below.
