Chris Pratt has teased the Guardians of the Galaxy fans, saying he is up for Star-Lord's return.
Speaking to GamesRadar+, the Terminal List star said, "It would be strange to continue Peter’s story without James."
"He's done such a masterful job in the first three films. We really found the voice of Peter Quill together and without him."
Earlier, Pratt's co-star Zoe Saldana also said, "I don't think this is the end for the Guardians," but added, "It is the end for me, for Gamora."
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is scheduled for release in 2023, and the production for the film was completed in February.
The film's director, James Gunn, who was fired by Disney in 2018, was rehired after the cast signed a letter of support for him.
