GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 3: Sean Gunn's Kraglin Will Have A Much Larger Role In The Threequel

During a recent Q&A, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 director James Gunn confirmed that Sean Gunn's Kraglin will have a larger role in the threequel after receiving more screentime in 2017's Vol. 2...

Sean Gunn has played Rocket during all of his big screen appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (Bradley Cooper provides the voice after the fact), but after making a cameo as Kraglin in Guardians of the Galaxy, he was given a slightly bigger, more memorable, role in 2017's Vol. 2

Unfortunately, the actor's return as Kraglin ended up being cut from Avengers: Endgame, so we're now anticipating seeing Gunn reprise the role in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.

During a recent Instagram Q&A, the film's writer and director (and Sean's bother) James Gunn was asked if we can expect to see more of the late Yondu's right-hand-man in the highly anticipated threequel, and he responded with a simple: "Yes." That doesn't exactly tell us much, but it is confirmation that we'll see more of Kraglin in this highly anticipated adventure. 

Another interesting response from Gunn saw him address rumours that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is going to feature a love interest for Rocket (Lylla) and Drax's daughter Kamaria. 

As you can see below, the filmmaker responds with a simple, "Guess we'll have to wait and see." That doesn't tell us much, but fans are already speculating that those rumours must be correct!
 

Hmmmmm I think James Gunn is hinting at something guys from r/MarvelStudiosSpoilers

While it's a nice gesture 'n all and whatever, it's still kinda in a weird nepotism area. It's one thing for him to be a stand-in for Rocket on set, it's another for him to essentially star in the movie.

I'm much more interested in the contents of that Reddit post than anything else here.

@Nebula - Same. And since there was little indication of a potential spoiler, I have to go read a whole bunch of "spoilers" now or else that one's gonna' haunt my mind.

The only thing that makes me not completely dislike the use of Sean Gunn in these films is that he actually gives a good performance as Kraglin all the time. Especially in Vol. 2 during Yondu's funeral. By far the most heartbreaking reaction during that sequence.

It would be pretty pointless introducing certain changes to a character and not moving forward with them in the next movie.

-Kraglin becoming a new Yondo
-Warlock
-A new type of soundtrack because Quill was given that mp4 player

@marvel72 - I can imagine "Smash Mouth - All Star" in that mp4.

It seems like James Gunn could sneeze and it would get an article on this site.

Does he have to? Literally don't know anyone who cares about this character.

Maybe in a scene or two but I think we've had the Ravagers use up their significant screen time in the last two movies. It's time to move the story past them.
