“Yes, what’s coming your way? Keep your guard up,” he shared. As you can see in the photo, Stallone is living large with his grey hair coifed back, and his facial hair is trimmed short. Of course, the biggest costume piece pictured is his flight suit, and Stallone looks comfortable in the ornate jacket.
As you can tell, the blue jacket is littered with zippers and metal accessories. Its high collar comes all the way up Stallone’s neck, and if you look towards the actor’s shoulder, you will see a familiar patch. He seems to have a Ravagers patch sewn onto the leather jacket, and that detail tracks for a character like Stakar Ogord.
After all, fans were introduced to the Ravager back in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. Stallone made his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Stakar when the Ravager was approached by Yondu. The pair have a nasty history together, so Yondu’s introduction did not go well. However, by the film’s end, Stakar and the Ravagers reunite in the face of Yondu’s sacrifice to save Peter Quill during the Battle on Ego’s Planet. Now, it seems like Stallone is ready to revisit the Marvel Universe, and audiences are curious to see how Stakar’s crew fairs in this new movie.
