- Director James Gunn confirmed at Comic-Con that Thanos would in fact be appearing in the Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
- He also confirmed that a casting announcement for Rocket Raccoon and Groot would be coming soon.
- James Gunn on Rocket Raccoon: "It's not about creating Bugs Bunny in the middle of The Avengers. This is about creating a character that's a little animal that was taken and experimented on and pulled apart and put back together again and implanted with cybernetics and he's half-machine and half-raccoon. And he's a gnarled, miserable, pretty-angry creature because there's nothing else like him. And that's [something] not easy to be."
- Chris Pratt was chosen to play Star-Lord over "two dozen big name stars" because of his ability to keep up with Robert Downey Jr. should the two ever appear on screen together.
-Last, but not least, Star-Lord's famous helmet/mask will be appearing in the film. On Sunday, Marvel had a table set up, displaying Star-Lord's costumes and guns. Here are some pictures:

I really want that helmet.
ReplyDeleteTell me about it. I know what I'm going to be for Halloween next year.
DeleteThe helmet looks like a ripoff of Hunk's helmet.
ReplyDeleteI can see some similarities but I like this helmet a lot more.
DeleteI'll take it over the one he's wearing in BMB's terrible run.
