‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ is Marvel’s next original superhero movie and follows the interstellar team of Drax the Destroyer, Rocket Raccoon, Gamora, Groot and Star-Lord. Marvel describes the Guardians of the Galaxy as a team of superhuman and extraterrestrial adventurers dedicated to the safeguarding of the Milky Way Galaxy from any force that threatens the security or liberty of its various people.
There's been plenty of speculation regarding who's playing who in Marvel's upcoming 'Guardians of the Galaxy,' so we're happy to report that we've gotten another answer: we now know what part John C. Reilly will play in the film.
One of the great joys of the Marvel movie universe has been watching the various characters and storylines overlap and converge in surprising and exciting ways. However, fans shouldn't get too excited about a potential 'Avengers' and 'Guardians of the Galaxy' crossover anytime soon. According to Joss Whedon, that isn't happening. (At least not yet.)
Last month came word that 'Doctor Who' star Karen Gillan had signed on to star in Marvel's 'Guardians of the Galaxy' as one of the film's villains. We've heard that Lee Pace will play The Controller and Benicio Del Toro will play Thanos, so what villain could Gillan be playing? Perhaps one of the reasons why figuring out Gillan's character has been so difficult is because her character may not even have originated in the Marvel universe...
Ever since it was announced that Benicio Del Toro would be joining the cast of Marvel's 'Guardians of the Galaxy' movie, speculation has been running rampant about who he might be playing. But it looks like we finally have a answer!
A lot of interesting people are turning up for James Gunn's 'Guardians of the Galaxy' including Benicio del Toro, John C. Reilly, Glenn Close, Michael Rooker and Chris Pratt. But today brings perhaps the most interesting casting news yet.
It looks like Marvel may have found its "Mad Titan." As the James Gunn-directed 'Guardians of the Galaxy' continues to bulk up its cast, another lead role has been shelled out, this time to Benicio Del Toro. And based on the preliminary character description, it certainly sounds like he'll be playing Thanos.
Casting for James Gunn's 'Guardians of the Galaxy' is in full swing as this week we've already seen Glenn Close and John C. Reilly added to the cast or be in "serious negotiations" to join the project. The latest news is that Karen Gillan, 'Doctor Who''s Amy Pond, has signed up to play one of the film's villains.
With 'Guardians of the Galaxy' fast approaching the start of principle photography, the movie's cast is coming into focus. The latest addition is Glenn Close, who's set to play a character that's like the intergalactic version of Nick Fury.
'Guardians of the Galaxy' is going to be a big movie that takes Marvel further into outer space concepts, so they need a performer to anchor the film. A human who serves as the bridge between its alien and human worlds. And that bridge may be John C. Reilly.
