UP NEXT: Avengers: Infinity War Actors Claim They Still Haven’t Seen The Script Yet
Talking to Collider, Bautista was asked point-blank how intense his shooting schedule for Avengers: Infinity War is – and the answer is not pretty.
“It’s really bad,” he explained. “Yeah, not to confirm nor deny anything.”
Then, the actor was then asked about the massive cast expected to be attached to Avengers: Infinity War. With more than 60 characters, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is a massive one, and Bautista was careful to hedge his bets about who would be in the film.
“I don’t think anybody who is a current character is not going to be in Infinity War,” he laughed. “That’s just my opinion. I haven’t gotten confirmation on who all is going to be in the film, but I think that they’re really going to go all-out on this.”
Set to the backdrop of ‘Awesome Mixtape #2,’ Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 continues the team’s adventures as they traverse the outer reaches of the cosmos.
