Russell is playing Ego the Living Planet in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
Kurt Russell is currently doing press for Deepwater Horizon, the story of the BP oil rig disaster.
If you’re not familiar with the character from the comics, Ego the Living Planet is exactly what the name implies; a sentient planet who hails from The Black Galaxy.
We recently sat down with Russell to chat about Deepwater Horizon but couldn’t leave without asking him about playing a planet.
