One Funny Reason Sean Gunn Is Happy He Got To Work On Avengers: Infinity War

Chris Hemsworth

Avengers: Infinity War is bringing all of our favorite Marvel movies heroes together for the first time which means the Guardians of the Galaxy finally get to meet the Avengers. As it turns out, the actors are just as excited by this as we are. In fact, some of the Guardians actors were really excited to meet other actors in the MCU. Sean Gunn, who stands in as the CGI Rocket on the set of the film, was apparently really glad he got to do so on the set of Infinity War as it meant he got to meet the man behind Thor. Gunn can't wait to tell us all about it...

Oh, my gosh has it been amazing, and such a big movie, and such an amazing and huge cast. I'm glad though that it's now out there that we get to work with Thor because now I can officially tell interviewers how handsome Chris Hemsworth is up close. It's really intimidating. It's like I can't even believe he's a real person.

Everybody probably has their favorite Avenger, but for Sean Gunn, that person is apparently Thor. For anybody concerned, it sounds like Chris Hemsworth is just as good looking up close as he appears to be on screen. So much so that he feels a need to tell everybody about it, including Comicbook.com. Gunn sounds absolutely smitten. To be fair, we can't really argue. I mean, there's a reason they cast him to play an actual god.

What's really interesting is that just yesterday in a different interview Chris Hemsworth mentioned how intimidated he was by Chris Pratt on the set of Avengers: Infinity War. Apparently filming this movie was just one massive love fest where everybody just spent the entire time swooning over everybody else. It's honestly surprising they were all able to film a movie together considering how in love everybody apparently was with everybody else on the set. Hopefully, they all now have it out of their system so everybody can just go to work on the set of Avengers 4.

Whether your particular MCU Chris of choice is Hemsworth, Pratt or Evans everybody is going to be happy next May as all there of them will be part of Avengers: Infinity War. We're guessing that there will be lots fans adoring one or more of the actors, who all tend to have scenes in their films when they're not wearing shirts, for reasons that we're sure are entirely unrelated to the fact that these are some of the most attractive people on the planet. Perhaps they will ultimately defeat Thanos with the power of their hotness.
