Transcript
00:00This is the final installment of the Guardians franchise.
00:03What is it like to see this sort of come to an end?
00:07Well, it's very bittersweet for me, certainly.
00:10I mean, it's always sad to have an ending of sorts.
00:15And I love the people that I work with so much on these movies.
00:18And I've loved collaborating with them creatively.
00:22And so for that to end is sad.
00:24But it's also, that's the fruits of the labor, right?
00:27You, as artists, we come together and we collaborate to try to make something special.
00:32So being able to share that with an audience should always be an occasion for joy.
00:38So it's definitely mostly a joyful moment for me right now.
00:42But I'll shed some tears later.
00:44And we know that this story sort of largely centers around Rocket and his backstory.
00:49And you share this role with Bradley Cooper.
00:51Did you guys have, what were those conversations like with him?
00:53Did you discuss sort of this end for Rocket?
00:55We keep it pretty separate.
00:57You know, I think a lot of like, it kind of takes a whole team to create Rocket.
01:01And I think of it as a relay race sometimes that James has the rights and, you know,
01:07has his vision for what happens with the character.
01:09And then he passes the baton to me where I work with the other actors on set.
01:14And then I pass it to the visual effects team who starts to put it together.
01:17And then the anchor Bradley takes it and does a complete, you know, ties everything together and makes it a complete performance.
01:25So we kind of have our separation of roles and it's been working.
01:31So we don't mess with it.
01:32And you mentioned tears.
01:34Is the audience going to be crying or do we need to be prepared?
01:37I mean, bring a hanky, you know, just in case.
01:41I can't tell you what's going to happen, obviously, but, you know, just in case.
01:45And if you could see Kraglin or Rocket pop into any other Marvel story in the future, what would you like to see them?
01:53That's pretty interesting.
01:55Um, I don't, I, gosh, I don't know how to answer that, but I wonder how Kraglin and She-Hulk would get along.
02:02I love that.
02:04I don't know.
02:05Just a thought.
02:06Kraglin would do great in a sitcom.
02:08Kraglin's been off.
02:10He's a buffoon.
02:11I know.
02:12Yeah.
02:13I get it.
02:14I see what you're saying.
02:15Well, thank you so much, Sean.
02:16I appreciate it.
02:17Thanks.
