GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Deleted Scene Sees Ego Present The Team With A Slightly Biased Tribute
The first deleted scene from the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Blu-ray has now been released, and it features Ego unveiling a memorial to the battle of Xandar. Click on to check it out...
We know Ego was willing to pull out all the stops to win his son over in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, and in this first deleted scene from the upcoming home release we see that the duplicitous Living Planet actually unveiled an entire monument to Quill's ego (no pun) at one point in the film.
As the memorial is revealed, Star-Lord is understandably impressed. His teammates? Not so much.
Here's what director James Gunn has to say to Yahoo! about the scene:
“[Peter Quill] sort of looks like this big muscular Frank Frazetta heroic character, and Groot looks kind of like a piece of broccoli, and they somehow confused Drax and Rocket so Drax is a tiny little thing standing on his arm, and Gamora is a very buxom character holding on and looking up lovingly at Peter Quill, holding onto his leg. So they’re not as thrilled with it as Quill is.”
