Recently, Michael Rooker (Yondu) took over Valhalla Entertainment's Twitter page and answered fans' questions. Although he mostly ignored Guardians of the Galaxy questions, he did give out a couple of tidbits.
*Rooker said that it takes "about an hour and a half and two more days to make sure" his blue body paint (for the role of Yondu) is all off.
*While talking about joining the Marvel universe, Rooker jokingly said, I'm in a Marvel movie and its paying my mortgage right now. Love Marvel. Sh*t Yes!!!!!!"
*Rooker first heard about Guardians of the Galaxy from director James Gunn.
*When confusingly asked if he had spent any time with Yondu before playing the character, Rooker joked, "Yeah I visited Yondu. We had a couple pints in London".
*When asked if he had to learn a new skill for Guardians of the Galaxy, Rooker joked, "No, I showed them a few."
*Apparently, Rooker is still filming scenes for Guardians of the Galaxy.
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, based on the Marvel comic books of the same name, features an unlikely cast of characters who must team up in order to defeat a cosmic force of epic proportions.
