Between celebrating the
success of Guardians of the Galaxy, and working on the sequel, director James
Gunn found the time to reveal a funny scene, which had to be cut from the film
because of time.
"Here’s me and the actor
Spencer Wilding who played the Mean Guard who jabs Quill in the prison with the
electrical staff and gets his comeuppance to Escape (the Piña Colada Song). He
also has a little container of Play-Doh. Why Play-Doh? Because I would keep a
pile of little Play-Doh containers onset and if someone did an especially
amazing job that day – whether it was an actor, a grip, a stunt man, or a PA –
they’d get a canister of Play-Doh. I probably only gave about 40 containers out
over the entire shoot – on an 85 day schedule with a crew of a couple hundred,
that isn’t much. I chose Play-Doh because I love the smell of it – opening a
new container and smelling it puts me in a creative, child-like place. And who
doesn’t love playing with Play-Doh (I swear Play-Doh isn’t paying for this
post)? Anway, Spencer got the Play-Doh for a scene where he danced through the
prison listening to Quill’s Walkman (specifically, Magic by Pilot). We cut the
scene for many reasons, but it was awesome and hilarious and Spence more than
deserved his rarely-given Play-Doh (and, yes, before you ask me a thousand
times below, it WILL be on the Blu-Ray outtakes, and no I will not tell you the
release date – you can go see the movie again! It’s still out!) Have a great
day (or night depending in where you are). #gotg
