The idea to create a new holiday tradition with his film was the brainchild of the director.
Kevin Feige shared that it was the first thing ever conceived from his studio. James suggested a holiday special on the set of the second volume of the film. It would be great, we had a laugh at it. They wrote it in a day.
There is a glimpse of the holiday spirit in the film, as well as a look at Drax and Mantis looking for Kevin bacon.
The first special presentation to be planned was the Guardians of the GALAXY Holiday Special. The first movie directed by Michael Giacchino was Halloween's Werewolf by Night. It kicked off the television specials from the studios with a variety of genres. We expect the same commitment for this next entry. There will be a holiday mix-tape for the ride just in time for the special to be released.
The holiday special will be available on Disney+.
