Even though GROOT only has a handful of lines (well, not even a handful) Vin Diesel has been confirmed by James Gunn to be returning for the Guardians of the Galaxy sequel. In a recent threat of comments on Gunn’s Facebook page, he confirmed as much:
On the outside, it seems like this would be an obvious re-cast – but with the way that GOTG ended, it could have been up in the air.
The sequel hits theaters on May 5, 2017.
