The highly anticipated sequel to Guardians of the Galaxy gets a brand new trailer that shows off its villains, more action, and a surprise that’s a bit Empire Strikes Back-esque.

The motley crew of of mercenaries turned heroes are back in the new trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. The trailer is topped off by the dramatic reveal of Star Lord’s father, Ego the Living Planet played by Kurt Russell. With some equating the franchise as this generation’s original Star Wars trilogy, this seems like an appropriate way to get fans salivating for more.

Along with Kurt Russell’s new character, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 sees the return of Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista as Star-Lord, Gamora, and Drax, along with Bradley Cooper voicing Rocket Raccoon and Vin Diesel as Baby Groot.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 will hit theaters May 5th.
