Is Lady Gaga joining the Marvel universe? There has been a lot of speculation whether Lady Lylla (as voiced by Lady Gaga) would appear in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which became more strong as the first teaser trailer for the film showed, for a split-second, the character hugging Rocket Raccoon (as voiced by Bradley Cooper). Now James Gunn has revealed whether the singer will be part of the franchise or not. (Also read: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 trailer out, fans say ‘this movie will be epic’)
When the filmmaker was asked in an Instagram post about the teaser, surrounding a theory that the character Lylla has a name that "stars with Ga and ends with Ga," he was quick to debunk it by saying, "It does not." Fans then tried to pin it down by adding that this could also be a potential send-off as Lady Gaga could still be credited in the project by her real name, Stefani Germanotta.
The latest buzz with Guardians 3 is that this could mark the second collaboration between Bradley and Gaga following A Star Is Born (2018). Lylla is a sentient otter in the comics. James also revealed that in the next film Rocket's story was the one he wanted to focus on the most, so it can clearly be a wise choice to bring in Lady Gaga as Lylla, although nothing has been confirmed yet.
"[The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special] is also very, very different than Volume 3 because Volume 3 is a really a very emotional movie," Gunn had previously said in an interview with Comic Book.com. "And it tells this story about Rocket and where he came from and where he's going, and how that ties into everybody else, and the end of this iteration of The Guardians." He continued, "So, doing this goofy thing like once every four days, and then going and shooting four days of Guardians Vol. 3, and then going back, it almost created a lot of whiplash. But it was also almost like The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special days were like snow days, you know? Those were the... that was recess. That was fun!" The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is now available exclusively on Disney+ Hotstar, while Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will hit theatres next year on May 5, 2023.
