The Avengers Are Marvel's
If The Avengers are Marvel's equivalent of a rock supergroup
— think Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young but with six-packs — then what does
that make the Guardians of the Galaxy? ''We're the Sex Pistols,'' says Zoe
Saldana. ''We're the renegades. We'll come in drunk, we'll save the day, but
check your wallet — we might have taken it.''
Not only are the Guardians less well-known than the likes of
Iron Man and the Hulk, but the movie introducing them is set almost entirely in
spaceships and on distant planets. They're also just plain weird. Saldana plays
the green-skinned assassin Gamora, wrestler-turned-actor Dave Bautista is the
gray-skinned behemoth Drax the Destroyer, and Parks and Recreation's Chris
Pratt is the self-proclaimed Star-Lord, Peter Quill.
The other two? Well, that's where it gets very...CG. Bradley
Cooper voices a genetically enhanced raccoon-like creature named Rocket, and
Vin Diesel breathes vocal life into a walking tree, Groot. Says Diesel,
''Groot's a bad mofo from Planet X.''
And the supporting characters are a freak show all their
own: the villainous Ronan the Accuser (Lee Pace), Nebula (Doctor Who's Karen
Gillan), and the Collector (Benicio del Toro). Finally, there's Marvel's
baddest bad guy, Thanos (no word yet on who will be playing the motion-capture
character, but director James Gunn describes him as ''the head of the snake.'')
Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige admits that this tale
of obscure, off-kilter superheroes represents its biggest roll of the dice
since the original Iron Man. ''But we like that the Guardians are unfamiliar to
people,'' he says. ''I didn't know who Indiana Jones was before I went to see
Raiders of the Lost Ark as a kid. I didn't know who Luke Skywalker was. Really,
it's about making a great movie.'
