KICK-ASS 2 Actor Enzo Cilenti Joins The Cast Of GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY

We don't actually know who he's playing in Kick-Ass 2, but that's not the only comic book movie that British actor Enzo Cilenti has signed up for; he'll also be in James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy. Read on for details!

Enzo Cilenti clearly doesn't know about Marvel Studios' policy of keeping their casting additions a secret as he has publicly announced via Twitter that he has joined the cast of James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy. He doesn't reveal WHO he's playing, but with Michael Rooker and Ophelia Lovibond already cast in supporting roles, there's nothing to say that Cilenti has joined the movie as one of the Guardians (the actors who will play Groot and Rocket Raccoon have not been announced as of yet). Enzo Cilenti is perhaps best known for his roles in Prisoners Wives, House and Spooks.

I may or may not be in #Guardiansofthegalaxy. I am sworn to secrecy so can't say. In entirely unrelated news, "I am".

"I am"? Groot?

ElBicho - 5/8/2013, 9:02 AM

"I am" sounds like he is and isn't. Guess we have Rocket's voice!

DaenerysTargaryen - 5/8/2013, 9:04 AM

Never heard of him :)

NoAssemblyReqd - 5/8/2013, 9:07 AM

I'm totally looking forward to people seeing if they can get through a work day saying nothing but "I AM GROOT."

lucio7lopez - 5/8/2013, 9:54 AM

@blackandyellow, @Gusto... Wooooooo, what a Powergirl!!! (the young one, not the old lady) she's gorgeous =)

JoeMomma29 - 5/8/2013, 9:55 AM

Yeah SuperCat has a very big issue! No worries for me posting a lot of videos just wanted to learn how to do it.

JoeMomma29 - 5/8/2013, 9:56 AM

Awww thanks Gusto for my usual "you suck of the day"

lucio7lopez - 5/8/2013, 9:58 AM

@Supercat don't stop!! You're a gif hero to us! We should name you "The GIFMAN".

JoeMomma29 - 5/8/2013, 10:01 AM

Gusto you would hit anything that moved!

JoeMomma29 - 5/8/2013, 10:04 AM

Someone needs to do a article on bad cosplay because I am too lazy to do one.

lucio7lopez - 5/8/2013, 10:11 AM

@JoeMomma29 well, the suit is very faithful to the original... I think the problem is the human inside.

lntrn8 - 5/8/2013, 10:14 AM

powergirl!

TheAbomination - 5/8/2013, 11:47 AM

I am Groot.

OriginalGuardiansPlease - 5/8/2013, 2:18 PM

i just noticed it said he stated "I am" so that has to be Groot

AmazingFantasy - 5/8/2013, 3:19 PM

Intresting

l0rdleg0las - 5/8/2013, 3:24 PM

i seriously doubt he is playing Groot or Rocket. unless they are going to use the Hulk style motion capture for both characters, then it will be complete voice acting and typically voice actors aren't brought in until late in the process.

LordOfTheZegaRealm - 5/8/2013, 3:52 PM

Gusto pumped out his ride.

IRONANdrew - 5/8/2013, 4:59 PM

This movie looks very interesting... Also, what's with the Power Girl pictures? I'm certainly not complaining, but it seems a little random.

JohnLamb - 5/8/2013, 11:06 PM

This movie's gonna be [frick]ing epic! My most anticipated movie of Phase 2! [frick] yeah!!!

exe - 5/9/2013, 8:42 AM

lol thumbnail looks like Downey Jr. Have to cleanse my eyes once in a while.

SnapperCarr - 8/6/2013, 11:20 AM

Groot!!!!!
