After more than a year and a half of teasing, the first trailer for Marvel’s new animated series “I Am Groot” is finally here. As the show’s name suggests, the new series follows Guardians of the Galaxy’s baby Groot as he grows back up on his little adventure.
Although now in a higher pitch, Vin Diesel will reprise his titular role, performing his signature phrase. The character’s sidekick in criminal Rocket Raccoon will also join the series, with Bradley Cooper reprising his role. Five episodes will feature an animated short, but it’s unclear whether Groot’s adventures will play out in the larger plot of the MCU.
For fans of the naughty character, I Am Groot will premiere on Disney+ on August 10.
