GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 director James Gunn posted a look at the official logo for the movie.

To quote the great poet David Coverdale, Here I Go Again.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

In addition to the new logo, Gunn made a post detailing his excitement to be back on set:

In the car on the way home from the first couple days of our pre-shoot on GotG Vol. 2 (a pre-shoot is like a shoot only without officially being called a shoot – other than that it’s exactly the same. Don’t ask me why they do these things.) It’s wonderful having the gang back together. We all learned so much from making the first movie – what we did right, what we could have done better, what we would have changed if we could – that everyone has upped their game. Last time we were balls-out, a hundred percent committed and sincere, but also a little tipsy at times like a toddler learning how to walk. This time we don’t need the corners of the family room coffee table to maneuver! We’re balls-out, a hundred percent committed and sincere, AND more sure-footed. We know the movie we’re making and the characters we’re creating. This doesn’t mean we’re just taking the easy way out and creating the first movie over again. We’re taking risks – big ones. But we’re more comfortable doing it.

Mostly, though, I’m just happy to be among my Guardians family. I truly love these people, and am so excited about spending the next few months and more with them. I hope that emanates from what we’re creating.

In the post, Gunn also mentions to keep a look out for new cast member announcements in the near future!

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is set for release on May 5th, 2017. (Source)
