“When someone’s screwing up a scene during rehearsals I show them Dave Bautista as an example of good acting,” the director writes.

You’ll also notice that Gunn’s brother Sean Gunn, who also plays the Ravager Kraglin, as the stand-in for Rocket Raccoon, a role he filled for the first film as well.

Gunn went on to reveal that production on the film will officially begin on Thursday, February 11. Check back here for any announcements as the film begins, such as the full cast for the film which Gunn previously said will be announced “very soon.”
