Geek Tyrant got the latest scoop from director James Gunn. He said that the "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" plot won't be based in the comics and when he proposed it to Marvel, the studio found it "too risky." here's what he said on Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend. (via FilmDrunk)

"It's not really based on anything. The story for 'Guardians 2' is an original story that I came up with that I started working on actually while I was shooting 'Guardians 1,' and it'll answer some of the questions that were put forth in the first movie about Peter Quill's father and who he is and what's going on with that. We'll get to know some of the characters a little bit more and then we're going to meet a couple of new characters who will be very important to 'Guardians' movies and probably important to the Marvel Universe as a whole," the director said.

"It's different than what's in the comic books. Peter Quill's father is somebody different in the comics. So then when the movie came out, we got green-lit on the sequel right away. I went in and I sat down with those guys and I'm like, 'Okay, here's what I think the sequel should be.' And they were like, 'Oh, whoa. That's risky, but okay.' Now I'm going to turn over the story in a few short weeks and we'll find out how well it works," the director added.

With that said, this might mean they will make major tweaks in the story and fans over at Geek Tyrant speculated the possible "Guardians of the Galaxy 2" plot based from the director's statements.

Hero said, "Adam Warlock will be Peter's biological father. I'm calling it."

While TeKnO_CaLiTY partly agreed with Hero by saying, "the fact that Yondu says he was hired by Starlords dad and Yondu even says at the end that he never liked that guy cause he was a bit of an 'as***le' doesn't really fit into Warlock's persona. But they can always change things up a bit. I'm just going off the fact that Peter's mom says on her death bed that his dad was a being of 'pure light' which makes me think Warlock immediately."
