Empire's coverage of Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 within the pages of their latest issue, includes releasing three new movie images shown below. The images include Yondu (Michael Rooker) squaring off with Rocket (Bradley Cooper), the gang in action, including Karen Gillan's Nebula and newcomer to the cast, Kurt Russell, as Ego The Living Planet, father of Chris Pratt's Star-Lord.
The new issue talks about how Pratt suggested Russell's casting during a casual chat with his director James Gunn.
“I started writing for Kurt as I was finishing the screenplay,” Gunn recalls.
“I would have been really disappointed if he’d said no.” Fortunately Russell said yes, after checking out the first movie, which he’d missed the first time around. “Fifteen minutes in, I said, ‘I think I see why they’re coming to me…’” the former Snake Plissken told sources.
“The baggage I bring from some of the movies I’ve done is the right kind of baggage to bring into this one.”
