Dance along to the trailer for I Am Groot
Before Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3 arrives next year, Baby Groot is back and cuter than ever

While you’ll have to wait until tomorrow for Marvel Studios’ main San Diego Comic-Con panel, they offered updates on a variety of animated projects this afternoon. Alongside news about What If…?, Marvel Zombies, Spider-Man: Freshman Year, and X-Men ’97, fans can now get a first look at the trailer for Guardians Of The Galaxy spin-off series I Am Groot.
While the humanoid tree alien was last seen as a bratty teen in Avengers: Endgame and Thor: Love And Thunder, he’s back to his more diminutive form from Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 for the new series of shorts. Arriving on Disney+ next month, all five episodes of I Am Groot were written and directed by Kirsten Lepore, though Guardians Of The Galaxy filmmaker James Gunn remains on board as an executive producer.
The trailer features Groot facing off against a horde of even smaller creatures who are ready to do battle with him until he farts out a leaf that turns out to be his foes’ food. Sure, why not! The tiny hero is also seen trying on a variety of new outfits, experimenting with explosives, and, of course, dancing to some sweet disco beats.
