The ‘Guardians of the Galaxy franchise has captured the hearts of audiences worldwide. A huge part of them being so beloved is the film’s quirky characters and the cast members portraying them.

Bautista, while talking to the comicbook, revealed that he would love to work with his fellow ‘Guardian of the Galaxy’ cast members outside of the MCU. “That’s kind of my goal. I really want, because I’ve done another project outside of Guardians with Karen Gillan, and I’ve done work with Pom now. I would like to work with Chris and Zoe outside of the Marvel Universe, as well,” he stated.
