Nobody likes when something bad happens to cute animals on the screen. No real animals were harmed in the making Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in accordance with James Gunnbut there is definitely some unsettling material as the movie explores Raccoon Rocket (Bradley Cooper) dark backstory. He and his brethren are mistreated by Chukwudi IwujiThe High Evolutionary, a character so despicable that Gunn couldn’t stress enough how much everyone absolutely hated him. However, in real life, Iwuji couldn’t be further away from himself onscreen.
own collider Perry Nemiroff interviewed the film’s cast and crew and asked Iwuji about his relationship with cute and cuddly creatures when he’s not in character. The High Evolutionary is a fanatic who experiments with animals locked in filthy cages and turns them into something they were never meant to be. His actions left the young Rocket alone in the universe until he joined forces with his found family, the Guardians of the Galaxy.
We’re happy to report that Iwuji actually has his own dog, which he cherishes in real life, but being a pet owner made filming the scenes where he shows his anger to Rocket and other creatures even more devastating. For the actor, who saw his dog in the eyes of the adorable baby Rocket, the movie was a tough one after the movie. When asked about his relationship with the dog, he said:
“Yes. I have a great dog. A schnoodle, schnauzer and poodle mix named Cicero, whom I adore and who every time I saw a finished Rocket, I saw - they have the same eyes! I was heartbroken. I was completely destroyed are watching the movie because they literally have the same eyes.”
The High Evolutionary will be an intimidating presence in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
High Evolutionary Iwuji is poised to become one of the most heinous villains in MCU history, but he goes beyond animal cruelty. In the past, the actor has described the villain as bordering on Shakespeare in his evil, striking a balance between pure evil and a charisma that will make audiences love and hate him. He’s obsessed with removing Guardians from “his world,” but these heroes aren’t likely to go down without a fight, especially after surviving and bonding over the course of several movies, a holiday special, and an all-out war against the other. The MCU is a big evil.
In addition to Iwuja, Volume. 3 featuring the returning stars of the Cooper franchise, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldanha, Dave Batista, Karen GillanAnd Pom Klementieff back for their last trip. Iwuji is one of several MCU newcomers in the film, along with Will Poulter like Adam Warlock as well Daniela Melchior And Nico Santos With Maria Bakalova returning from the holiday to once again voice Space Dog Cosmo.
