Possible details about how much Thanos will appear in Guardians of the Galaxy following news that Josh Brolin will be the voice of the Mad God of Titan.
The purple alien overlord (who appeared briefly in the post-credit scene in The Avengers) will appear in the first act of Guardians and communicate via hologram to the film’s chief villains Ronan (Lee Pace) and Nebula (Karen Gillan) according to Vulture.
The presence of Thanos will be felt throughout the film since Gamora (Zoe Saldana) is his “daughter” and the story includes his search for the six gems (Infinity stones) to assemble on a gauntlet giving him ultimate power. The Gauntlet was seen in Thor and a gem was given to The Collector (Benicio Del Toro) in Thor: The Dark World.
It keeps appearing like Marvel is building up to an Avengers 3 partly inspired by The Infinity Gauntlet.
Guardians of the Galaxy opens August 1st.
