The latest trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 has given us our first look at Kurt Russell as Ego the Living Planet.
Revealed on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the new trailer ends with Peter Quill meeting his long-absent father. Here's a shot of the man/energy projection in question:
In the comics, Ego is, well, a planet with incredible intelligence and a faster-than-light propulsion device on its south pole. In the latest film, he has taken human form to reveal himself to Peter, and has apparently been responsible for raising Mantis, one of the new Guardians to join the team this time around.
Ego the Living Planet was part of a character swap deal between Fox and Marvel that also allowed Negasonic Teenage Warhead to appear in Deadpool with a changed look and altered powers.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 will be released on May 5, 2017.
