Thor: Ragnarok

James Gunn has confirmed what most everyone suspected : Thor : Ragnarokdoesn’t have arealdeleted fit featuring an appearance by Yondu ( Michael Rooker ) .

There are   clearly some secret plan elements going on in the next twoAvengersmovies that will involve past events in the Marvel Cinematic Universe   being revisit . What that means is that deceased characters may be able-bodied to return for the gravid Marvel squad - up films . One character in particular who lover have suppose could appear in that of Yondu , despite his death inGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2.Gunn has confirm that Yondu is really deadand that quicken him would cheapen the moment . For that understanding , many were at once suspicious   when   a photograph ofYondu in aRagnarok"deleted scene"made its way online earlier this hebdomad . Gunn and Rooker have now confirmed that yes , it was just part of a joke .

Gunn , in a C. W. Post to hisTwitteraccount , has explained how   Rooker in his Yondu costume somehow wind up   hanging around with a bunch of Asgardians on the set ofThor : Ragnarok-   and no , it was n’t part of an actual deleted panorama from the film .

Although Gunn has go away launch the possibility of Yondu returning to the MCU in the futurity by way of   a flashback or something like sentence travel , it sure enough would have cheapened his death to have him pop up in another MCU film just a few months after he pass away . The actualRagnarokfootage with Rooker features Yondu asking for directions to the offices of   Marvel executives   Kevin Feige and   Louis D’Esposito ’s ( prompting laughter from the spear carrier around him ) , so it ’s not as though Rooker was really attempting to misguide anyone , either .

All talk of Yondu aside , there ’s plenty of right   bonus substance usable for those who purchaseThor : Ragnarokon DVD and Blu - ray . That includes arealdeleted scene where Jeff Goldblum as The Grandmasterhosting a tentacle party of some variety , along with a boo-boo reveal that showcasesRagnarokdirector Taika Waititi ’s comedic antics and interactions with the cast on the film ’s set in - between takes .   And of class , there ’s the short featuringThe Grandmaster and Darrylrooming together forThor : Ragnarokfans to enjoy .
