Steven Tyler has walked many ways, and according to a report at ComicBookMovie.com, he now wants to walk right onto the set of Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3.
Where Does Steven Tyler Fit Into the Galaxy?
The rock legend has recently been experimenting with new art, including an increase in acting roles and a country-style album out last year. In a recent interview with People Magazine, Tyler revealed that he’d like to act in a superhero film, citing the Galaxy series specifically: “I would do anything to be in Guardians of the Galaxy 3 – are you listening James Gunn?”
James Gunn Responds to Steven Tyler
Gunn directed both Guardians of the Galaxy and the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy: Volume 2. While he has not committed to a third Galaxy film, Gunn responded to Tyler’s request positively. “Steven, yes I am listening. 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 [him] sometime.” Gunn then took to Twitter to clarify any confusion about Vol. 3.
If I did Vol 3, sure. I love @IamStevenT. Love his work & he’s a very warm guy. https://t.co/DGITBILZAv
