Steven Tyler may not be the greatest actor, but he is definitely an eccentric personality. Recently, the rock’n’roll star stated that he would love to have a part in Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy 3 and he directed his wish towards the director:
I hope [audiences] enjoy [Happy Birthday]. I know I did! It made me want to do more movies for sure, I would do anything to be in Guardians of the Galaxy 3 - are you listening, James Gunn? (People Magazine)
James Gunn is very accessible and easy to reach, so he gave a reply to Tyler’s statement.
James Gunn would like to work with Steven Tyler… maybe in GotG 3
Gunn was quick with his commentary on Tyler’s subtle suggestion. During a Q&A session on Facebook, a fan opened the subject. Here’s what the GotG director had to say about Steven Tyler’s desire:
Yes, I did hear that Steven Tyler wants to be in Guardians of the Galaxy. He gave me a shout-out the other day in an interview. He said, “James Gunn, are you listening?” The answer is: “Steven, yes, I am listening.” And I'm a big fan of Steven Tyler"˜s. I had the pleasure of directing his daughter Liv in a movie ["Super" in 2010], in which she was fantastic, and I met him for a few seconds at a screening of that movie. He's a cool guy. And of course I would love to work with Steven Tyler sometime.
If the third installment of Guardians of the Galaxy happens, and Gunn is to helm it, we might get to see the eccentric rock star in it. How would you like that?
Or would you rather see Liv Tyler in the movie?
