The cast and creatives behind the highly anticipated blockbuster GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 3 gathered virtually to gush about making the film together and MouseInfo was able to to listen in. Here’s what we learned about the upcoming return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe…

Chris + James = Forever

Chris Pratt was asked if he’d be willing to do another film with James Gunn (a question slyly alluding to the rumors that Pratt may now join the DC film universe).

“I’d jump at the opportunity. Making movies is really fun, When you get to do it with people you love it’s even more fun…both the journey and the destination have been glorious.”

Maria Bakalova is just happy to be here

Maria Bakalova was so excited to be in the film she just came to set every day, even when she wasn’t working. I’m seeing directing in her future! James Gunn said:

“Maria came, and she’d sit on set every day, all day long. She’d come and she’d do her bit as Cosmo, and then she’d sit with me all day long. So even though she’s not the biggest character in the movie, I spent more time with Maria than almost anyone here! She just loves being on set and watching all the other actors. And she is an absolute joy to be around in every way.”

The High Evolutionary is an insomniac

Chukwudi Imuji found an interesting path into his villainous character’s mindset via classical music:

“A lot of finding this guy, for me, was if he’s listening to opera…and he’s this mad scientist sort of person. I just thought of someone that doesn’t sleep. That’s someone that is obsessed with it, listening to this music.”

Gunn goes nuts

When asked how much leeway James Gunn gets to affect the rest of the MCU with his films, Marvel mastermind Kevin Feige said:

“As much slack as there is to give, he is given.”

That goes for Epcot too I guess!
