The 46-year-old actor revealed he would “really love” to play the character again and make good on the end-screen tease of Guardians Of The Galaxy: Vol. 3, which promised Star-Lord would return at some point in the future.
During an interview with ScreenTime, the Mercy star said: “We made a promise with Guardians Of The Galaxy that Star-Lord would return.
“I think I would really love to make good on that promise.”
