Sylvester Stallone’s Role in GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Is an Important One
One of the big surprises to come out of Comic-Con last weekend was the reveal that Sylvester Stallone is going to be in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. He made a brief appearance in the Comic-Con trailer for the film, which has yet to be released, and the crowd went wild.
There’s no word on who exactly Stallone is playing. Judging by the costume he was wearing it could very well be a Nova Corps character, but there’s no confirmation of that. In an interview with CinemaBlend, director James Gunn teased a little bit more info about the character saying that he will play a key role in the story. He said:
“It's a very, very key, important role. It's not a huge role. He's a great and key supporting actor.”
It’ll be fun to see how Gunn actually plans on utilizing hm. One thing we know from this statement is that he will have some kind of an important impact on the story. I guess we’ll eventually find out who he’s playing, but in the meantime, all there is is fan speculation.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 will be released on May 5th, 2017.
