With the soundtrack reveal indicating a big shift, Pratt also spoke about the noticeable change of tone in the previously light-hearted comedy.

“Overall, the film has matured in its emotionality the same way that probably the audience has matured. The kids who loved Guardians were teenagers, and now they’re in their mid-twenties, and it’s really exciting to think that they’re ready for this movie the way that they might not have been nine years ago.”
