Back in 2014, Marvel produced the first Guardians of the Galaxy based on the comic of the same name. The movie was a stunning success, becoming the third-highest grossing film of the year and nominated for two Academy Awards. The trilogy was then completed in 2023.  Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, and Vin Diesel talk about the original movie and their roles, what it’s like to be action figures, and who would win in a battle royale.  Originally published in August 2014.
