Could We Meet 'Star Lord's Dad Before GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY 2?

That's what director James Gunn seems to hint at while promoting the first movie in Bangkok anyway. Gunn has already said that Peter Quill's father won't be his comic book daddy J'Son of Spartax, but whoever he is, could he show up sooner than we think?

While promoting Guardians Of The Galaxy in Bangkok, James Gunn fielded a few questions, and the subject of Peter Quill/Star Lord's father was brought up. The director has already confirmed that the mysterious figure won't be J'Son of Spartax as he is in the Marvel comics, and reiterates that here along with a few more hints on what type of man he will turn out to be (angel to peter's Mom, "jackass" to Yondu for example). But when Gunn is asked if we will definitely meet this character in Guardians sequel, he responds: “He’ll… be showing up pretty soon”.


Now obviously this isn't evidence that he'll definitely show up before GOTG 2, but since Gunn has previously said that the sequel would deal with the relationship between Star Lord and his dad, the fact that he hesitated and didn't just come straight out with a "yes" means that it's a possibility. So when could it be? Avengers: Age Of Ultron? Ant-Man? Might we have already met the guy and just don't know it yet? Sound off below.

If he's not in GOTG then he's not an alien.

He could show up in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. We already had the blue alien show up on the show.

Really wonder what angle they're going with here. More of a cosmic presence in the next couple of Marvel movies? Beams of light, looks like an Angel, from an ancient species even the Novas don't know of. Not J'Son most likely. Who does that leave?

LIO, I love boobs...I'd be the mayor of boob town if I could. But there's a time and a place, and that time and place is not in an article about the identity of Peter Quill's dead beat bloody dad!

Checkin' out the shame, the "three pigs" pic almost made me lose it, took about 30 seconds to figure out what the [frick] I was lookin' at...LMAO...

"Peter Quill's dead beat bloody dad!"

Bloody dad...Blood hell...Yeah! Everyone knows i'm right ;)

@Batz - The Three Pigs got reported!???!!!??!?!?! WTF? It's 3 pigs! WTF?

The subtle manner in which Yondu spoke of Quill's father being an asshole seemed as if he was talking about himself.

He even made an odd reference to what Meredith had said by stating that "[he] may look like an angel, but that doesn't mean he has to act like one."

If it is Yondu, it helps make that entire first scene make sense. If not, that scene with the mom was pointless, him getting picked up out of nowhere for no reason.

LMAO I saw the three pigs earlier, it took me a while to figure it out.

batz11 - 8/14/2014, 12:26 PM
@Davinci31 there has been some good Yondu is dad stories on the interweb...callin' himself a jack-ass wouldn't be out of his character. He does call Quill "son" once I believe instead of "boy" -- but who knows...
yossarian
yossarian - 8/14/2014, 12:26 PM
hahahahahahahhaha Well, sorry Julian. I thought it was funny though. No offense was intended.

If ya'll get to be mayor of boob town can I be like...sheriff of lean stomach ville? I think it's south of ya'll but north of Ciph's authoritarian rule of ass city.
batz11
batz11 - 8/14/2014, 12:27 PM
@shabat though if it's not Yondu, Quill's dad could have sent Yondu to get him once his mother died...right, I think?
