Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Interview: Chris Pratt & James Gunn on Gamora, DC & More

It’s abundantly clear that there are a number of very special connections on the set of the Guardians of the Galaxy movies — connections between actors and their characters, and the cast and crew functioning like a close-knit family. I’m a big believer that kind of working relationship heavily impacts the end product and radiates off screen in the final film. It’s been the case with the first two Guardians movies and now the same is true in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The new movie sees all the members of the Guardians facing personal challenges, but at the core of Vol. 3 is Rocket’s (Bradley Cooper) past and his heavy impact on the group in the present. In addition to facing off against the perfect being, Adam Warlock (Will Poulter), the team also must deal with the High Evolutionary (Chukwudi Iwuji), the super-powered mad scientist responsible for Rocket’s creation. As always, the only way the Guardians can power through this especially high-stakes mission is by leaning on each other as a family.
