He won’t get Thanos in Vol. 2 – but with Guardians of the Galaxy 3 already green-lit and director James Gunn still writing/directing, and with Drax and the rest of the Guardians expected to appear in Avengers: Infinity War, Bautista is holding out hope that Drax ends up getting the fight with Thanos that he desires.
Screen Rant spoke with Bautista at a recent press event for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, and the actor shared what he hopes to happen with Drax in both Guardians of the Galaxy 3 and Avengers: Infinity War.
Bautista surprised a lot of people when he stole scenes as Drax in the first Guardians of the Galaxy, and he’s reportedly blowing people’s minds in early screenings of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
Dave Bautista told Screen Rant what he hopes to do with Drax the Destroyer in future installments of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
