Marvel fans have been waiting for Adam Warlock‘s Marvel Cinematic Universe debut since Thor: The Dark World, and come May 5, the comic book character will be brought to life in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.In the exclusive image, actor Will Poulter is suited up as Adam Warlock, frowning as he walks towards someone or something. There's an intimidating aura to him, especially since he has his fists clenched.
"[H]e's definitely not a good guy — What we’re seeing is the infant form of Warlock, newly out of the cocoon, and he does not understand life very well. He's basically a baby," said Gunn. Warlock isn't entirely bad either, though. Gunn’s Warlock is more complicated than what the comics led on and the director is confident that actor Poulter is the perfect fit to bring youthfulness to the character whilst balancing drama and comedy in equal measure.“People online were saying — ‘Oh, Tom Cruise should be Adam Warlock,'" revealed Gunn.
