Is There a Post-Credits Scene in The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special?
The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special does not have a mid-credit scene to check out, but it does have a post-credits scene. For those that don’t want to be spoiled on the scene, don’t look at the next section; however, for those that don’t care about spoilers, continue reading. It’s worth noting that this post-credit scene is not as monumental as, let’s say, Black Panther 2’s, but it’s still an enjoyable, although short, clip.
From here on out, there will be spoilers for The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, so watch out.
What’s the Post-Credits Scene About?
Unfortunately, for the Marvel fans expecting a bombshell of a drop in the post-credits scene, there’s not much that happens. The scene is just about 15 seconds long and doesn’t have too much to offer in terms of hints for the future of the Guardians and the MCU.
The post-credits scene for The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is simply a fun little scene with Rocket and Cosmo putting all kinds of Christmas decorations on Groot as if he was an actual Christmas tree (he is made out of wood, so it makes sense). After getting tired of holding all the decorations and being used, Groot puts his arms down by his side, knocking the decorations off himself. This leads Rocket to say something along the lines of: “Now we’re gonna need another special,” breaking the fourth wall and referring to the actual holiday special they are currently part of on Disney +.
Of course, there’s not another holiday special for the guardians currently in the works, as far as fans are aware, but there is another adventure to look forward to with the intergalactic crew. The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is slated to launch on May 5, 2023, as part of the fifth phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. James Gunn is writing and directing, as he did with the first two Guardians films. However, this upcoming film will most likely be the last time Gunn will be working on an MCU project, as the filmmaker was hired by Warner Bros. to become the co-chairman of DC Studios.
The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is now streaming exclusively on Disney Plus.
