'Guardians Of The Galaxy' Vol. 2 Director Talks Sylvester Stallone, Kurt Russell In Key Roles

Alright, fellow movie fans, Comic Con 2016 has revealed some very interesting updates recently. And one of 2014's heroically awesome movies is back for a new sequel, "Guardians of the Galaxy" Vol. 2, this 2017.

What's more interesting is the latest announcement from Director James Gunn regarding new characters for "Guardians of the Galaxy" Vol. 2, in a Cinema Blend post. Gunn has said that Sly Stallone has also been added as a new cast member for "Guardians of the Galaxy" Vol. 2.

Everyone knows that Stallone has legendary acting skills, and his latest venture into the spaced-out world of the new "Guardians of the Galaxy" movie would eventually amp the hype that's already going around. So far, "Guardians of the Galaxy" Vol. 2 director Gunn has left out surely important details of what Sly's role would be.

However, director Gunn already confirmed Kurt Russell's involvement in "Guardians of the Galaxy" Vol. 2, and that would be as Peter Quill/Star Lord's father (portrayed by Chris Pratt). Turns out Russell's character as Ego, the Living Planet actually sounds really cool too.
