This month, Marvel fans finally learned the release date for the highly-anticipated Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which will see the return of director James Gunn as well as the movie’s cast. While Gunn has teased that the movie’s script is complete, there has been no word on new characters or actors. However, there is one star who would like to be a part of the franchise and that’s Kevin Bacon. While speaking with Esquire, Bacon was asked if he’d be interested in making a cameo in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. “Listen, I love the idea. I would love to be part of that,” Bacon replied. The answer has caught the attention of Gunn, who took to Twitter to share a story about meeting Bacon.
I met Kevin as a very young man in New York City at a screening. “You’re my favorite actor,” I told him, “Along with Mr. Peter Falk.” He told me he took that as a very high compliment. Loved working with him on SUPER & can’t wait till we can work together again. https://t.co/iDvqPTDEN8
