"Fast and Furious" star Vin Diesel has a secret Groot version of the script in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2." James Gunn is the director of the upcoming movie sequel.
According to The Independent, Gunn decided to help Diesel out in his special version of Groot script for "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2." In the script, the endless "I am Groot" lines of the character were actually translated into English. Rocket Raccoon can only interpret the meanings.
Gunn recently posted an image in his Facebook. The image shows the front page of the ultra-top-secret Groot version. He captioned it that only Diesel and him have the special script. He added that this script will help Diesel know what the various "I am Groot" meant. Indeed, repeating the five words "I am," "we are," "Groot" in various intonations is a particularly tough performance for any actor.
Diesel and Gunn discussed the movie and the character Groot during a Facebook Live session on Diesel's page, as Entertainment Weekly reported. The former just watched footage from the film, which amazed him.
There have also been a few fragments of information surfaced online: from a piece of concept art showing the Guardians taking on a dog-like Kraken creature to "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." actress Elizabeth Debicki revealing details of her character Ayesha.
However, Gunn has insisted the first trailer for the "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" shown at the San Diego Comic-Con 2016 will not be turning up any time soon. He was not happy when the released footage showed featured unfinished effects to the general public.
Other cast members in the "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" are Chris Pratt (Peter Quill/Star-Lord), Zoe Saldana (Gamora), Dave Bautista (Drax the Destroyer), Bradley Cooper (Rocket Raccoon), Karen Gillan (Nebula), Michael Rooker (Yondu). The newcomers are Pom Klementieff (Mantis), Kurt Russel (Ego the Living Planet), Chris Sullivan (Taserface), Tommy Flanagan (Tullk), Nathan Fillion (Simon Williams), Glenn Close (Nova Prime), Aaron Schwartz (Young Ego), and Sean Gunn (Kraglin).
The producers in the "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" are Kevin Feige and Lars P. Winther. The executive producers are Victoria Alonso, Louis D'Esposito, Nikolas Korda, and Stan Lee.
"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" is scheduled to hit UK cinemas on July 31, 2017 and nationwide on May 5, 2017.
