GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Concept Art Highlights One Of The Sequel's Most Emotional Moments
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2's most heartbreaking moment came when Yondu sacrificed himself to save Star-Lord. Now, concept artist Andy Park has provided a look at some of his work from the scene...
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 was a fun movie but the sequel's climax packed a real emotional punch as Yondu sacrificed himself to save his surrogate son, Peter Quill. As Star-Lord pleaded with his unexpected father figure not to give up his life, the fan-favourite Ravager redeems himself in the cold darkness of space. It was a memorable moment and one Marvel Studios managed to keep secret.
Concept artist Andy Park has taken to Twitter to provide a new look at the scene as we watch Yondu blasting off into the atmosphere with Quill in his arms as Ego the Living Planet explodes behind him.
It's a stunning piece of work and a fitting tribute to the character. It remains to be seen whether or not Yondu will reappear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, especially as long dead heroes and villains have frequently been resurrected in flashbacks! We'll have to wait and see but feel free to let us know your thoughts on this impressive Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 artwork in the comments section.
