Superman is headed to theaters this summer, but James Gunn has already revealed several major cameos that fans of his MCU franchise will instantly recognize. The filmmaker is known for working with longtime collaborators on his superhero projects, and it seems his upcoming DCU film is no exception.
Per Buzz Feed, Gunn revealed during an early preview screening that Superman features several cameos from the Guardians of the Galaxy crew. Pom Klementieff, Bradley Cooper, and Michael Rooker all voice robots in the Fortress of Solitude, which was previewed in a five-minute clip earlier this year. The news arrives after it was confirmed that Creature Commandos star Alan Tudyk also voices one of the many robots in the Kryptonian homebase. Of course, there is a good chance the aforementioned actors will play other, more significant roles in the DCU, especially since the robots are only voice acting roles. Gunn’s quote:
“Pom Klementieff is one of the robots. In that same scene, it’s Bradley, it’s also Pom, and Michael Rooker is another one of the robots.”

Longtime fans know that the Guardians of the Galaxy trio are not the only MCU actors appearing in Superman. Nathan Fillion, who has appeared in the MCU for Gunn several times, is playing the Green Lantern Guy Gardner in the DCU film. However, despite several connections to his past work, Superman is actually mostly comprised of actors that Gunn has not worked with before. The movie stars David Corenswet as Superman, Rachal Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, among many others.
