Set Photos From GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 3 Show How Young Rocket Scenes Were Shot
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 included Rocket Raccoon’s tragic backstory, which left a lot of fans completely in tears. While this part of the story was rough to watch at times, it was beautifully told.
James Gunn recently took to Twitter to share a few photos from the set of the film, which give us a behind the scenes look at how the young Rocket scenes were filmed in the movie.
Gunn shared the photos after he was asked by a fan if the voice actors who played Rocket Raccoon’s friends also did the motion capture, and he revealed they did. The photos feature Linda Cardellini as Lylla, Asim Chaudhry as Teefs, Mikaela Hoover as Floor, as well as Sean Gunn, who played the role of Young Rocket.

In Marvel Studios’ Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 our beloved band of misfits are settling into life on Knowhere. But it isn’t long before their lives are upended by the echoes of Rocket’s turbulent past. Peter Quill, still reeling from the loss of Gamora, must rally his team around him on a dangerous mission to save Rocket’s life—a mission that, if not completed successfully, could quite possibly lead to the end of the Guardians as we know them.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 stars Chris Pratt as Star-Lord, Zoe Saldana as Gamora, Dave Bautista as Drax, Karen Gillan as Nebula, Sean Gunn as Kraglin/on-set Rocket, Pom Klementieff as Mantis, Bradley Cooper as Rocket, and Vin Diesel as Groot. New additions to the cast also include Will Poulter as Adam Warlock and Chukwudi Iwuji as the High Evolutionary as well as Daniela Melchior, Nico Santos, and Borat Subsequent Moviefilm's Maria Bakalova as Cosmo the Spacedog.
