The Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy comes to an end, and with it director James Gunn's time in the MCU (he's now overseeing DC Films at Warner Bros.). Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldaña, Dave Bautista, Karen Gillan, and Pom Klementieff are all back, as are Vin Diesel and Bradley Cooper as the voices of Groot and Rocket. Will the team remain intact and save each other while under attack from the High Evolutionary? Check out EW's review here.

On the small screen, go back in time — even more — for the prequel series Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story. Pete Davidson's semi-autobiographical comedy series Bupkis debuts — Edie Falco and Joe Pesci costar. Woody Harrelson and Justin Theroux star in the Watergate dramedy White House Plumbers. In A Small Light, Bel Powley and Liev Schreiber bring the Anne Frank story to the screen from the point of view of one of those who helped hid the family, Miep Gies.

After 10 seasons, The Goldbergs says goodbye; A Million Little Things also wraps up its run on ABC.
