The internet came alive yesterday with rumors that Benicio Del Toro would be returning to Guardians of The Galaxy after Zoe Saldana released a video on her husband’s Facebook saying, “I’ll see you on Guardians.”
I spoke to Oscar Winner Del Toro about his latest movie Sicario in which he plays a hitman out for vengeance. We asked him to confirm his role in the next installment of Galaxy. Read what he had to say:
Awards Daily: Zoe Saldana said she looks forward to seeing you on Guardian’s 2. Are you doing Guardians of the Galaxy 2?
Benico Del Toro: I haven’t been called in. [laughs] That’s very nice of Zoe. I’m looking forward to seeing her, I know she better be in it. I know I’d love to play that character again. [laughs] I don’t know if I’m going to be in the next one.
AD: We’ll see.
BDT: We’ll see. That’s not a bad problem to have, to be wanted to be part of the Marvel universe.
The full interview with Benicio Del Toro discussing his latest film, Sicario will be up soon.
