Marvel and Disney recently released more details about the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction coming to EPCOT. The antagonist of the attraction will be the celestial Eson, who was once in possession of the Power Stone, one of the six Infinity Stones.
Here are a few more details via Marvel.com:
Visitors hoping to explore and learn a little bit about the first-ever Other-World Showcase Pavilion in the area will get more than they expected when Eson, a Celestial that has been watching Earth for eons, makes a startling appearance. The Celestial is looking “to right a wrong in a big way,” and the Guardians of the Galaxy — Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Rocket, and Groot — step in to help save the day. But, they can’t do it alone and need our help to stop him from completing his grand plan!
For those that are familiar with the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, Eson actually made an appearance in the first film in a flashback, which can be seen above.
