GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Concept Art Offers A Closer Look At Stan Lee And The Watchers
One of the coolest moments in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 came when Stan Lee made a cameo appearance alongside The Watchers and this new concept art sheds some light on how that sequence was created.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 brought The Watchers to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in a scene with Stan "The Man" Lee. While it was an awesome Easter Egg for comic book fans, it came as a huge surprise as most of us assumed that the ancient alien beings belong to Fox due to them holding the rights to the Fantastic Four franchise. Perhaps it's just Uatu the Watcher that the rival studio owns!
Regardless, director James Gunn clearly imagined Lee making his cameo appearance alongside The Watchers at a very early stage in production because character designer Michael Kutsche has shared the following piece of artwork from the sequel. As you can see, this scene was brought to life on the big screen pretty much exactly how it was imagined but The Watchers were much larger there.
Do you think we'll see The Watchers in Avengers: Infinity War or Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3? What were your thoughts on this scene? As always, share your thoughts in the comments section below.
