Guardians Of The Galaxy Director James Gunn Invites Dedicated Fan To Visit Vol. 2 Set

Don't ever say unwavering fandom won't get you anywhere. For devoted Guardians of the Galaxy fan Alessio, it got him quite a lot.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Director James Gunn took to Facebook to shout out Alessio, as well as share a picture of him and Gunn, along with Star-Lord actor Chris Pratt on the set.

"Many of you who have been following this page for a while will know Alessio, one of Guardians of the Galaxy's biggest fans. Alessio posted in support of our first movie all over the Internet and was a frequent commenter on this very page. Because he was so unwaveringly dedicated to us I invited him to the set to get a glimpse of Vol. 2 and to hang with Chris Pratt and me. He's as great a guy in person as he is on the Internet! Thanks Alessio!"

The best thing about this is the expression on Alessio's face, which commenter Jameson Sczypta fittingly describes, saying: "I love his reaction in this picture. He is all of us."

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 hits theatres on May 5th, 2017.
