GOTG Vol. 3 Star Dave Bautista Says He'll Never Return As Drax And Tarnish A "Perfect Exit"

Dave Bautista recently confirmed that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will mark his final time playing Drax, and the Knock At the Cabin actor has now explained why he will never reprise the role...

Though we figured as much based on past comments from the actor, Dave Bautista recently confirmed that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will indeed mark his final time playing Drax.

The Glass Onion star has never been shy about discussing some of the negative aspects of playing the character, and has previously expressed some dissatisfaction with the more comedic direction Drax has been taken in over the years.

While chatting to Jimmy Fallon about his new movie, Knock at The Cabin, Bautista once again made it very clear that Vol. 3 will serve as a send-off for the team's resident powerhouse.

"It’s hard, but it’s time, and it’s the perfect exit," he confirmed. "We all had those perfect kind of character arcs and such a storybook ending. I constantly relate it to the way I finished my wrestling career, I ended it on a storybook note and I would never go back and tarnish that, and it’s the same with this, with Drax. I just got to end it in a perfect way, and I would never sign up for another job as Drax just to get a pay cheque... I wouldn’t tarnish that, and I won’t do it."

Could this "storybook ending" involve Drax's demise, perhaps?

The Destroyer looks to be in pretty bad shape in the recent trailer, but then again, so do quite a few members of the team! If one of the Guardians is going to be killed-off, fans seem to feel that Drax or Rocket are the most likely candidates.

Will you be sad to see the last of Drax in the MCU? Drop us a comment down below.

In Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, our beloved band of misfits are looking a bit different these days. Peter Quill, still reeling from the loss of Gamora, must rally his team around him to defend the universe along with protecting one of their own. A mission that, if not completed successfully, could quite possibly lead to the end of the Guardians as we know them.

James Gunn writes and directs Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Karen Gillan, Pom Klementieff, featuring Vin Diesel as Groot, Bradley Cooper as Rocket, Sean Gunn, Chukwudi Iwuji, Will Poulter and Maria Bakalova.

Kevin Feige is the producer and Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Nikolas Korda, Simon Hatt and Sara Smith serve as executive producers.
