The GuardiansOfTheGalaxy Holiday Special features another new iteration of Groot & director James Gunn has explained how they brought him to life.
James Gunn has done it again! The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is bringing us a bit of Christmas-y joy as the Guardians try to make the holiday special for Peter Quill. And how do they plan to do that? By stealing Kevin Bacon and bringing him to space as a present, obviously. A perfect little addition to the world of the Guardians of the Galaxy, the special is just an all-around delight to watch this holiday season.
Voiced by Vin Diesel, Groot has taken on many forms in the time since the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie. He first appeared as a fully grown Groot who sacrificed his life for his friends, then we had Baby Groot until he grew up into Teenage Groot, and then from Thor: Love and Thunder to the special, Groot has grown into Swoll Groot. Or at least that's what Gunn and company are calling him. And honestly? It's a pretty accurate nickname.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY In answering some questions about the special, which was released today on Disney+, Gunn shared that Swoll Groot was created entirely through CGI rather than through motion capture. He also explained why this version of Groot is a bit different in personality and build than his father before him.
Will we continue to get Swoll Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3? Who knows yet but oh boy was it hilarious seeing Groot looking like he could take out anyone who dared to mess with his friends. The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is on Disney+ now! You can watch the trailer for the special down below.
