“They’ll get a little bit of a Baby Groot happy dance in the beginning, but he’s definitely got his trials and tribulations in the film,” Gunn told Fandango. “It’s not an easy road for Baby Groot.” He added,”I still do all of Groot’s dancing in the film, in a much bigger way. I actually had to do like a full day’s worth of dancing to get Groot’s dance down this time. Last time it was me in front of an iPhone, and this time it’s me dancing on a huge soundstage and shooting it from five different angles.”
