James Gunn recently teased the Guardians of the Galaxy cast members' potential involvement in the DCU.

Since the director took over the reins of the new DC franchise with Peter Safran, fans have wondered whether some of the actors from the MCU trilogy will jump to the DCU and reunite with Gunn in various projects.

While none of the main Guardians of the Galaxy actors are confirmed to join the DCU yet, they have expressed their interest in becoming part of the franchise and working with Gunn again as they remained friends since Vol. 3 wrapped.

Gunn was recently asked by a fan on Threads whether there are cast members from the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy who will join the DCU.

As expected, the DC Studios co-chairman didn't reveal anything as they are keeping the details under wraps.

"Well that would be a spoiler wouldn’t it?" he responded.

While Gunn didn't unveil any names, it is still an exciting tease for fans as it suggested that there will be Guardians of the Galaxy cast members who are joining the DCU and perhaps they are not ready to announce it yet.

A lot of fans would definitely love to see any of the Guardians of the Galaxy main cast join the DCU as they're all talented actors and they have proven that they can effectively work under Gunn's sandbox.

DC Studios is currently working on multiple film and TV projects, and they have a lot of roles to cast for the next several years so there will be room for the Guardians of the Galaxy alumni to join.

For now, let's wait and see whether it ends up happening soon, but we are seeing signs that it will likely occur sometime in the future and fans would respond with enthusiasm when Gunn announces it.
