The universe needs saving again, and there’s no one more suited to the job than the ragtag group of misfits known as Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. A new trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 debuted on Tuesday night, and by the looks of it, the Guardians have their work cut out for them.

The movie’s first trailer, released back in October, gave us a look at Baby Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel), and subsequent teasers have offered a glimpse of some of the new characters Guardians vol. 2 will introduce. This new trailer adds more intrigue by including Nebula (Karen Gillan), a secondary villain from the first film now returning to clash with the Guardians. We also get our first look at golden villain Ayesha (Elizabeth Debicki), sitting atop a throne and promising to “cleanse the universe” of weaknesses like fear, jealousy, and betrayal.
But the trailer’s biggest reveal comes at the tail end, when Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) gets a surprise visit from an older man (played by Kurt Russell) — who reveals himself to be Peter’s long-lost dad.
