4) Ego, Is That You?
Here we have a sequence which sees the Guardians – well, we only see Quill, Gamora and Drax, but we can assume Rocket and Groot are there, too – leaving the wrecked Milano and venturing out into the strange woodland world on which they have crashed. It is a bit of a shot in the dark, but the weird events seen going on in the previous clip make us wonder if they’ve just landed on Ego the Living Planet.
If you’ve been keeping up-to-date with the film’s casting announcements, you’ll know that Kurt Russell will be amongst the cast of Vol. 2. You will also know – spoilers, though it’s already been officially revealed – that he is playing Quill’s father, a sentient planet called Ego. We can speculate, then, that Ego lured his son’s ship to his surface and repelled the Ravagers that were after him.
Then again, maybe it’s just a random planet and we’re thinking into this far too much.
