UPDATE: Nathan Fillion's Role In GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Revealed?

James Gunn himself has confirmed that his old Slither buddy Nathan Fillion will indeed pop up for a cameo appearance in Marvel's space adventure..but who will he be playing? We know it won't be Nova, but if you don't mind being SPOILED, The Schmoes reckon they have the answer..

So yes, fan favorite actor Nathan Fillion (Firefly, Castle, Slither) will appear in Marvel's Guardians Of The Galaxy..kinda! The Schmoes report that he'll actually be playing a motion capture character, and providing the voice. Well, unless they plan on sticking him in a dog costume that is..


"According our very reliable source with intimate knowledge of this and the production has spoken exclusively to us about this and we here at Schmoes Know have our answer: Nathan Fillion will be voicing the part of Cosmo, the psychic Russian cosmonaut dog that has appeared in the Guardians of the Galaxy comics."

Many of us guessed it'd be Cosmo, and there you have it. A fun little cameo I'm sure you'll agree.

UPDATE: A tweet from James Gunn casts some doubt on this, BUT, it's important to keep in mind that directors/actors/producers etc will frequently flat out lie about this sort of thing.

"Cosmo, the psychic Russian cosmonaut dog"

I know a lot of you guys love this kind of stuff, but this is just too over the top for my tastes.

Not bad. His performance was the only thing remotely entertaining from the Percy Jackson Sea of Monsters film.

God, I hope this is true! I'd love for Cosmo to appear.

"the guy shoots Castle almost all year so there would be no way he would appear in a full fledged on screen marvel role anytime soon"

This would be true if the show has 60 episodes in a season. No show films all year.

Hopefully this cameo leads to a larger role for Cosmo in the (fingers crossed) sequel. I don't want him fighting alongside the team, but if they do eventually choose knowhere as they base of operations, I'd love Cosmo to be the security chief there.

didn't James Gunn talk about Cosmo appearing a sequel?

I do believe there's a clip of that somewhere

Anyone who wanted him as Nova can go [frick] yourselves, that makes no sense whatsoever! Fillion is 43 and Richard Rider has never advanced past the age of thirty in the comics.
