I Am Groot’s Place in the MCU

Last year, Marvel Studios animated producer Brad Winderbaum opened up about what the existence of the multiverse allows the company to do with animation, and how Groot is able to carve out his own corner of the saga with I Am Groot.

“I think what’s amazing about the Multiverse Saga in particular is that you can go down so many more roads,” Winderbaum told Variety. “We’ve experimented at the studio for a long time about telling stories that take place in a linear fashion, but also going back in time, and being able to show how the MCU can blossom in the past. But what the multiverse does, it allows us to look at alternate paths and other takes on the characters, which is, of course, what happens in the comic books as different artists, different writers, different storytellers work with characters. You see them expanding and growing in unforeseen, unexpected ways. And that’s something that is our guiding light as we make more animated projects.”

“It’s fun to see what he does when nobody’s looking,” he added. “Like an actual kid, that’s where he gets into the most trouble – when he’s right outside the realm of parental eyes. That’s part of the shorts you kind of identify with, or at least I do. You watch it and I remember what it was like to be a kid, and the other side of me is, ‘Oh, that’s what it’s like to be a parent, watching a kid and worrying they’re going to be doing something terrible.’”
