A mischievous toddler-tree that he is, Baby Groot gets his very own time on the center stage with his adorable misadventures in a series of shorts, I Am Groot.
As the show nears its release and with the SDCC event going on, it is the perfect time to tease the latest project of the MCU arriving on August 10th with a new trailer showing how cute and troublesome Baby Groot can be.
In the trailer, Baby Groot meets a group of tiny aliens and while trying to befriend them, they ended up fighting each other. However, Baby Groot found out that the little aliens wanted his leaf and when his leaf fell, they rejoiced. Snippets of other misadventures of Baby Groot are also shown on the teaser.
Baby Groot also gets a new moniker, the “hero of few words,” because, well, all he says is “I am Groot.” He speaks for himself, literally. The teaser reveals that I Am Groot will run with five shorts.

During the SDCC, I Am Groot also receives a new poster with Baby Groot chilling under a tree. It also features the tiny aliens that Baby Groot encountered in the trailer.
I Am Groot will be produced by Marvel Studios. Kirsten Lepore will be directing the series and Ryan Little will be the head writer. Vin Diesel will return as the voice of Baby Groot with his iconic line, “I am groot.”
I Am Groot is set to form part of the fourth phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, however, it remains to be a question on whether it would be a canon series since James Gunn suggests otherwise when asked online. There is no confirmation yet how long will the series run.
