[dropcap size=small]A[/dropcap]s if the news that Kurt Russell would be playing the role of Starlord’s father in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 wasn’t big enough, or that Elizabeth Debicki would be taking on the role of a genetically-perfect high priestess, director James Gunn pulled a seemingly impossible rabbit out of his hat. Sylvester Stallone is going to be in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 and no one seems more excited about the news than James Gunn himself.
“Yes, Sylvester Stallone is in the film,” director James Gunn said in his Facebook post. “This was an amazing experience for me, considering I ran around in my backyard as a kid pretending I was Johnny Rambo. Working with Sly was one of the high points of shooting ‘Vol. 2’ for me.
Who will Sylvester Stallone be playing in Guardians of the Galaxy 2? Your guess is just as good as anyone else’s and with a number of characters that take place in the Guardians of the Galaxy comic book series James Gunn certainly had plenty of characters to choose from. Fortunately, we will get a good look atSylvester Stallone’s character “interacting with Yondu in the teaser.” Get ready for the hype.
