GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Star Michael Rooker Finally Got To Meet Mary Poppins, Y'All
One of the best scenes in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 came courtesy of Michael Rooker's Yondu declaring that he was Mary Poppins. Now, the actor has shared an Instagram post you need to see!
"I'm Mary Poppins, y'all!" Yondu declares after Star-Lord assures his father figure that he looks cool floating down towards Ego's core in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 moments after comparing him to the iconic Disney character. That line has since taken on a life of its own with t-shirts and fan-made posters like the one below, but Michael Rooker has taken to Instagram to share a brilliant photo.
As you can see, the actor finally got to meet Mary Poppins this past weekend and this is bound to increase fan support for Disney to give the actor a role in the upcoming sequel which stars Emily Blunt.
Yondu stole the show in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, with this scene among his most memorable. The movie took him from a fun supporting player to a firm fan-favourite, and while he may now be finished with the franchise, chances are his acting gigs will be dramatically increasing after this!
