Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)


Recommended Posts

In the following video interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Vin Diesel talks in detail about playing Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy, but reveals something even more interesting about Marvel's "Phase 3" plans. As it turns out, he originally met with the studio to discuss starring in a new IP (intellectual property) which would have been released in 2016 or 2017 and kicked off the next wave of movies. What that could be is anyone's guess, but it sounds like the Riddick star will be fully committing to the role of Groot by providing his voice and motion capture.

Michael Rooker Tweets about Yondu and GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY

*When asked what movie he would like to do after Guardians of the Galaxy, Rooker answered, "Another Guardians. Duh."

*Rooker said that it takes "about an hour and a half and two more days to make sure" his blue body paint (for the role of Yondu) is all off.

*While talking about joining the Marvel universe, Rooker jokingly said, I'm in a Marvel movie and its paying my mortgage right now. Love Marvel. Sh*t Yes!!!!!!"

*Rooker first heard about Guardians of the Galaxy from director James Gunn.

*When confusingly asked if he had spent any time with Yondu before playing the character, Rooker joked, "Yeah I visited Yondu. We had a couple pints in London".

*When asked if he had to learn a new skill for Guardians of the Galaxy, Rooker joked, "No, I showed them a few."

*Apparently, Rooker is still filming scenes for Guardians of the Galaxy.

"We are happy to share the news, our raccoon Oreo got his chance to star. He can work in James Gunn's 'Guardians of the Galaxy', and will be a model for the Jet raccoon. This news is very pleased us and we are so happy to be a part of this project. All, and especially James Gunn, refer to the Oreo with kindness and respect, and as always, our little friend is attracting attention to himself. We are very grateful for this opportunity and can not wait for the film."

According to AmericanActorsUK, (a casting agency for actors with American accents in the UK) actress Laura Haddock will be playing a character named 'Meredith' in Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy film. Haddock's credits include a small role in Captain America: The First Avenger, as well as the TV series, DaVinci's Demons. Also, Janis Ahern will be playing 'Meredith's Mother.'

 

For those of you who haven't read the comics, Meredith is the name of Peter Quill's mother who is

killed by aliens when Peter is just a child. We've already heard that the film would be going over Peter Quill's (aka Star-Lord) origin story, but up until now, we had no idea who was playing Peter's mother.

Vin Diesel Confirms He Only Has ONE Line of Dialog

"My father taught me there are no small roles, only small actors. I only have one line in the movie, but that doesn't mean anything. I'm still going to make it the best possible thing I can."

Chris Pratt & Michael Rooker On Bradley Cooper's 'Rocket Raccoon'

 

?You think it?s a cartoon character, but it?s not, it?s a very real creature,? said Chris Pratt. ?[Rocket Raccoon has been] tortured his whole life and no one else likes him, so he?s lonely and he?s angry and it?s like, [there are] all these elements [to the character],? he continued. ?You sort of forget about that, you wouldn?t think about, [and] hopefully will come to life. I think it will and that?s why they hired a really good actor to do the role. I could not be more excited that Bradley Cooper is voicing Rocket Raccoon, it?s a great character. It?s probably the best character in the movie, just because it?s not what you would expect,? Pratt added.

    • Limited Prime Day deal sees Amazon Echo Show 11 is at its lowest price yet by Ivan Jenic The Amazon Echo Show 11 is currently $149.99 on Amazon during Prime Day, down from $219.99. That's 32% off and $70 saved on Amazon's newest mid-size smart display (purchase link below). As its name suggests, the Echo Show 11 features a 11” Full-HD touchscreen, which is a decent upgrade over the Echo Show 8. It offers 60% more viewing area, which makes a genuine difference for recipes, calendars, video calls, or any other scenario where the smaller display can feel a bit cramped. The Show 11 is built around Alexa+, Amazon's more capable AI assistant that can handle natural conversation. You can make reservations, order groceries, and find content based on your preferences, instead of always having to give it precise commands. There’s also the Omnisense technology, which adds ambient awareness, allowing the device to trigger routines based on temperature, presence detection, or visual cues. Smart home control is built in without needing a separate hub, and the home screen doubles as a photo slideshow when not in use. Taking all of this into account, the Show 11 is a perfect smart addition to your kitchen counter or living room. At $149.99, this is a strong Prime Day buy for anyone already in the Amazon ecosystem or looking to build one out.
