Found raccoon for "Guardians of the Galaxy!" A Raccoon named Oreo, and it will be used as a model for Rocket Raccoon, (meaning that appearance and movements are copied exactly from Oreo.) "We are happy to share the news, our raccoon Oreo got his chance to star. He can work in James Gunn's 'Guardians of the Galaxy', and will be a model for the Jet raccoon. This news is very pleased us and we are so happy to be a part of this project. All, and especially James Gunn, refer to the Oreo with kindness and respect, and as always, our little friend is attracting attention to himself. We are very grateful for this opportunity and can not wait for the film."


Guardians Of The Galaxy is Directed by James Gunn, from a screenplay also from Gunn and Nichole Perlman. It Stars: Chris Pratt as Star-Lord, Zoe Saldana as Gamora, Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer, Vin Diesel as Groot, and Bradley Cooper as Rocket Raccoon. It opens in theaters August 1, 2014.

Cool. I was hoping he would be adorable and have a potty mouth.

Just imagine someone walking up to him and saying "he's adorable!" and Rocket just whips a knife out and threatens them.

He IS a raccoon.

Rocket is descended from earth raccoons who were being kept as pets by the loonies on Halfworld. The raccoons were the highest form of intelligent life on the planet and thus were the main guardians of Halfworld and the Keystone Quadrant in general.
