Is The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special Canon To The MCU?
Of course, The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is canon to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and it follows the continuity that the whole franchise has when it comes to their movies and TV series! Marvel Special Presentations like Werewolf By Night and The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special are all canon to the MCU, they are just presented differently, and most often, they fit a specific season for its release. Mind you, The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is different to The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 so don’t expect that the special presentation would be the last you’d see the group as a whole. James Gunn, the writer and director of The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, himself, confirmed that the special presentation would be the epilogue of Phase Four of which fits its release happening after Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and before Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.
