This
past week, director James Gunn attended a promotional screening for the
Guardians of the Galaxy DVD/Blu-Ray release, and we have been getting a few snippets
of information about the sequel from his interviews at the event, such has his
interest in pursuing other cosmic characters from Marvel's roster besides
Guardians. Now in a new interview the director confesses that he may have
taking a liking to Celestial, Eson the Searcher .
"Maybe
at some point, yeah," he replied. "I mean, I love that guy
(Eson the Searcher) that we see in the Collector's lab. I love that character.
I think he's really cool. The visual effects artists did a great job with him,
and they were given a pretty big task, to create this character in a short
amount of time and put him in there. Yeah, I like that stuff, the Celestials. I
like the whole idea that the Guardians are a bunch of mortals playing in the
field of gods. It's really about their mortality in the face of all that stuff
that makes it both dramatic and fun."
Almost
after Guardians came out and its success established, the director revealed
that the sequel would explore Peter Quill, aka Star-Lord's origins. Now however,
the director states that yes there will be a reveal but that it won't be the
center of story.
"It's
funny, I don't want to blackbox it too much," he
said. "You know what
I mean? Yeah, it's like, we'll find out who is dad is, and it's going to serve
the story. It's not going to be something like in the Crying Game, though,
where the big thing was, 'He has a penis!' [or The Sixth Sense's big
twist]. I don't want to do that. It's not about the revelation of who it is;
it's about what his relationship is to that character." However Gunn added that he believes the revelation and character will have a big impact
on Marvel's Cinematic Universe.
