Now that Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is out in the US, there's a fair chance you're already looking ahead to its Disney Plus release date. 

Thanks to recent MCU entries, we have a pretty good sense of when the James Gunn-directed cosmic threequel will be available to stream from the comfort of your own homes.

If past movies are any indication, Guardians of the Galaxy 3 will be streaming on Disney Plus between 48 days and 90 days after its US release (May 5.)

If that’s the case again, we can pinpoint a potential release window between late June and the beginning of August.

However, Marvel has trended towards stretching out the cinematic run of its MCU releases recently. It took Black Panther: Wakanda Forever 82 days to hit Disney Plus; Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania 89 days. As such, we're pretty confident in suggesting a July 2023 streaming window for Guardians of the Galaxy 3.

Guardians of the Galaxy 3 hits cinemas in the US on May 5. Want to discover more about Marvel’s future? Here’s our definitive guide to Marvel Phase 5.
