The release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in different formats had sparked enthusiasm among franchise fans. The intensity of the anticipation is heightened by new twists, interstellar advancements, and the reappearance of favorite characters such as Cosmo the Space Dog. What's grabbing attention of the fans at this moment is a fascinating and lighthearted anecdote involving Cosmo and James Gunn from behind the scenes.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 finds Peter Quill, still grappling with the loss of Gamora, leading the Guardians on a vital mission. The astronomical stakes involve the grim possibility that failure could terminate the Guardians and even bring about the universe's downfall. The film features an all-star cast including Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldaña, and Dave Batista to name a few. New additions like Will Poulter made the film a must-watch for fans and even newcomers.
Perhaps one of the more charming tales from behind the scenes involves Cosmo the Space Dog. The dog made a cameo in the original Guardians of the Galaxy and now, has a significant role in the latest installment. During an exclusive interview with visual effects production supervisor, Stephane Ceretti, he shed light on how the on-set dog named Slate (playing Cosmo) would often become distracted by director James Gunn.
According to Ceretti, the approach to capturing Cosmo's character involved careful study and scanning of Slate's movements and fur. However, the dog's desire to play with Gunn often led to distractions. Ceretti describes:
James loves dogs. So James would start playing with Slate and then by the time we were rolling, Slate was like, 'Oh, I'm gone. I don't know. I want to play.'
These mischievous moments, while not planned, added a sense of whimsy to the process, with the vendors appreciating the unique reference it provided.
Beyond Continuation: Expanding the Universe and Building Intrigue in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
The creation of Cosmo's character wasn't just about scanning and observing Slate. The team also took into consideration the specific lighting, the dog's appearance in various scenes, and ensured that the final product was visually accurate. Ceretti's insight provides a fascinating look into the complex and nuanced process behind bringing a character like Cosmo to life on the big screen.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is more than a continuation of the team's adventures. It made the Marvel universe’s narrative richer. The film's storyline has expanded with the inclusion of Adam Warlock, portrayed by Poulter, and the High Evolutionary, played by Chukwudi Iwuji, laying the groundwork for further exploration in the Guardians of the Galaxy saga.
