That character is the pit boss who was running the Orloni-F’saki table in the Boot of Jemiah, played by Marama Corlett, seen here having her head rubbed by Dave Bautista.
Gunn says you can still spot her in the film, but she had a larger role before her sequence was cut:
#gotgpicoftheday One of the tough things about making a film is sometimes you have to cut performances from the film, not because there was anything wrong with the performance, but for time or plotting reasons. Such was the case with @maramacorlett, who played the pit boss running the Orloni-F’saki table in the Boot of Jemiah. She was amazing, learning all of her lines in a foreign language we created. Although you can still see her in the film her part was drastically cut down because of pacing. However her character didn’t die, so who knows where the pit boss could show up again! Here @realbautista rubs her head like he did in the cut scene from the movie, irritating her while drunk.
Guardians of the Galaxy is still playing in theaters.
