Joseph Gordon-Levitt Rumored for Guardians of the Galaxy - IGN

Never mind Batman -- how about Joseph Gordon-Levitt for… Star-Lord!

Who's Star-Lord, you might ask? He's the leader of -- and lead role in -- Marvel's cosmic Guardians of the Galaxy team/movie, a human-alien hybrid (in the comics anyway) named Peter Quill who heads out into space, where he meets and joins up with a bunch of intergalactic oddballs.

Deadline reports that JGL has joined the group of actors who are in the running for the role of Quill. Zachary Levi (Chuck, Thor: The Dark World) has previously been reported to be in the running for the gig, along with Zero Dark Thirty's Joel Edgerton, Boardwalk Empire's Jack Huston, Cloud Atlas' Jim Sturgess, The Hobbit's Lee Pace and Les Miserables' Eddie Redmayne. Other names in the mix have included Garrett Hedlund, James Marsden and Sullivan Stapleton.

Now the thing is, if Gordon-Levitt ultimately does get the part as Star-Lord, what happens to his rumored involvement in Warner Bros.' Justice League movie? Unconfirmed reports in November had pegged the Dark Knight Rises actor as "solidifying" a deal with the studio to play Batman in that film, a move -- spoilers if you somehow haven't seen TDKR yet -- which would dovetail with the end of that film.

Which doesn't mean JGL couldn't play both characters, though I wonder how Marvel and Warners would feel about that?

thoughts?

So he's pulling a Ryan Reynolds? It will be kind of interesting by some chance if he ends up in both the JL movie and the Avengers sequel.

 

[Jello Biafra]

I doubt he is even really seriously up for the role, it seems like the studio has a wish list of actors that they just add to every couple weeks but nothing concrete is happening.

 

[TRIPLE M]

he played a shytty cobra commander
people seem to forget that( that movie wasnt good but storm shadow and baroness came through so he could of done better)...I dont see him carrying a superhero movie

 

[RJY33]

He is on the rumor list for every big movie lately. Nothing to see here.

 

[duncanthetall]

I think he looks too young. Of those names listed, I'd like James marsden to get a shot. I think if he tried, he could make him not a bytch lol

 

[HookersandIceCream]

He's just not that good of an actor

It's phase 2 in the Marvel movies leading up to "Avengers 2". So is "Antman", and obviously "Thor 2", "Ironman 3", "Captain America 2", etc.

Guardians of the Galaxy are best known for beefing with Thanos:

Calm down bro. It's just batman. U act like it's the NBA and some guy who has never played before joined the Lakers. It's just fantasy breh.

I can't think of a single superhero dude should be playing.

Is Thanos going to be in this movie?

Not really interested in this and the Antman movies. If they look good I would watch them tho
