It is the sequel to Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017), and the 32nd film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Written and directed by James Gunn, it features an ensemble cast including Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldaña, Dave Bautista, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Will Poulter, Sean Gunn, Chukwudi Iwuji, Linda Cardellini, Nathan Fillion, and Sylvester Stallone. In the film, the Guardians embark on a mission to protect Rocket (Cooper) from the High Evolutionary (Iwuji). Gunn stated in November 2014 that he had initial ideas for a third and final film in the series, and announced his return to write and direct in April 2017. Disney fired him from the film in July 2018 following the resurfacing of controversial posts on Twitter, but the studio reversed course by that October and reinstated him. Gunn's return was publicly revealed in March 2019, with production resuming after he completed work for DC on The Suicide Squad (2021) and the first season of its spin-off series Peacemaker (2022). Filming began in November 2021 at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, Georgia, and lasted until May 2022. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 premiered at Disneyland Paris on April 22, 2023, and was released in the United States on May 5, as part of Phase Five of the MCU. Like its predecessors, it was a critical and commercial success, grossing over $845 million worldwide, and becoming the third-highest-grossing film of 2023.

The former police officer, Wayne Couzens, who raped and murdered Sarah Everard two years ago, has admitted three counts of indecent exposure. Now academics and criminologists are calling for a change in the way indecent exposure is seen – saying we need to stop the perception of it as a so-called ‘nuisance offence' and take it more seriously. Jennifer Grant from the University of Portsmouth and the BBC's Home Affairs correspondent Dominic Casciani discuss allegations against Wayne Couzens that go back to 2015.

Following 2 Passions, The Navy and NASCAR: Interview with Jessie Iwuji: S3E12In all things Jesse Iwuji does, there are two constant elements: his devotion to service and his inspirational nature to many. Jesse went from competing at the top level of Division-1A college football to rising the ranks of the military as a Lieutenant Commander and is now the only current driver in all of NASCAR at the national levels that actively serves his country as a US Military member.It has been key for Iwuji, who is currently serving in our country's reserve fighting force, to honor his country while pursuing excellence in the business world as a business owner and on the track as a driver. It should come as no surprise that he has championed companies and charities that give back to our men and women in uniform.Jesse is also a big supporter of NASCAR diversity, equity, and inclusion. Today he is one of two African Americans competing at NASCARs national level of racing. He was honored by NASCAR for two years in a row – the Diverse Driver of the Year Award. He is well versed both on and off the track!It is fair to say in many ways Jesse is a first in NASCAR. While clawing toward the top tiers of NASCAR, Jesse Iwuji continues to take us all along for a memorable ride showing those who dare to dream that life truly rewards those who stay strong enough, long enough.Websites:Jesse Iwuji RacingJesse Iwuji MotorsportsLinkedIn:(6) Jesse Iwuji | LinkedInInstagram:Jesse Iwuji (@jesse_iwuji) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter:(5) Jesse Iwuji (@Jesse_Iwuji) / Twitter(5) Jesse Iwuji Motorsports (@JIMS__official) / TwitterEric Reyes: Host of Hey Coach!

I really love Chukwudi as an actor, but he's even a better human being. One of the all time greats to stop by the podcast. He's the real deal.One of the best actors on the planet.Talking Points:1. Chuk talks about his amazing wife.2. Host Darek Thomas incorrectly called "Peacemaker", "Peacekeeper" (multiple times) to which I apologize and am throughly embarrassed.  I have done this with other "Peacemaker" guests. Bad habit.3. I tried very hard to get Chuk to reveal who he is playing in Guardians 3, I tried REALLY hard. I am not sure it worked.4. Chuk talks about how a non-fictional death leads to real world emotions.5. We talk about James Gunn, and how he loved Chuk so much in Peacemaker, he offered him the highly coveted role that many high profile actors wanted in Guardians of the Galaxy 3.6. Clemson Murn is the biggest hero in Peacemaker.7. I ask Chuk how reading scripts is different than reading for pleasure.8. Chuk is fresh off a one night "Othello" performance.9. I might get Chuk a Monday Morning Critic Jacket (Like Tom Hanks has for SNL) for his third appearance which would make him the most featured guest in MMC history!10.

First in Previously On (2:07), Jason and Rosie discuss casting news, including the Sonyverse's Chameleon and MCU's Blade, how immersed Paul Dano got in his Riddler role, and the release of more Thor: Love and Thunder Legos and what that might tell us about phase 4 and 5 of the MCU.

Chukwudi Iwuji has been celebrated for his stage work (particularly Shakespeare) on both sides of the pond. He got raves for his Henvy VI at RSC, and his Othello and Hamlet at The Public, to names just a few. The raves continued for his performances in “The Low Road” (Obie win) and Ivo van Hove's “Hedda Gabler.” He has only recently been transitioning, in a concerted way, to film work. James Gunn rewrote Clemson Murn in “Peacemaker” after seeing Iwuji's audition, then put him in “Guardians of the Galaxy 3,” and called him one of the greatest actors who has graced his camera. In this episode, Iwuji talks about what Gunn and Hove have given him, what he needs from a director in general, his realization of the essence of the difference between film and stage performance, why he gets off book immediately, the importance of feeding your work with substance other than work, and much more.

In all things Jesse Iwuji does, there are two constant elements: his devotion to service and his inspirational nature to many. Jesse went from competing at the top level of Division-1A college football to rising the ranks of the military as a Lieutenant Commander, and is now the only current driver in all of NASCAR at the national levels that actively serves his country as a US Military member. It has been key for Iwuji, who is currently serving in our country's reserve fighting force, to honor his country while pursuing excellence in the business world as a business owner and on the track as a driver. It should come as no surprise that he has championed companies and charities that give back to our men and women in uniform. Jesse is also a big supporter of NASCAR diversity, equity, and inclusion. Today he is one of two African Americans competing at NASCARs national level of racing. He was honored by NASCAR for two years in a row – the Diverse Driver of the Year Award.
