The bowel - wrenching backstory of Drax the Destroyer has been mentioned several times in the current run ofMarvel moviesbut never say in full . If that story ever get aBlack Widow - esque prequel origination treatment , though , star Dave Bautista plans to be looking at the screenland , not being on it .

Over the past few weeks , Bautista has made it readable that2023′s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol . 3 will be the last timewe see him as Drax , but he ’s also said he wishes Marvel would do more with the character and plunk profoundly into how Drax became the Destroyer . verbalize withUproxx , Bautista said even though Guardians writer - director James Gunn said“There ’s no Drax for me without you,”given the nature of funnies books , even if Gunn and Bautista are done with Drax , Marvel does n’t have to be . And the worker would be totally o.k. with it .

“ The character ’s not going anywhere and they can vamp him and boot him all Clarence Day long , which I believe that they should , ” Bautista said . “ I would love to see it personally , as a rooter . I would make out to see them do Drax ’s story Justice Department because it ’s such a neat write up . And I trust that if there ’s somebody that can pace in and put a whole different twist on it and play Drax , then it would just be a different look , but it ’s a possibility and something I ’d like to see personally as a sports fan . ”

This come a few daylight afterBautista made wavesby saying Marvel “ dropped the lump ” on Drax , which he meant less as an insult and more as an unfortunate twist of event . “ I really wish they would have invested more in Drax , personally , because I think Drax has more of a story to say , ” Bautista toldCollider . “ I think Drax has a really interesting backstory which they degenerate the ball on . That ’s no dig on Marvel . They had their ticket , I know what they ’re focussed on , that ’s what they have slated out . But man , I reckon they really missed the bollock on Drax . He has such a great backstory . ”

Bautista preserve , explaining that as an actor , of course , he would ’ve want to do more , but he felt Marvel had to get away from Drax because of what the devotee were latching on to . “ People just fell so in love with the comedic side of Drax they tapped into that , then they tapped into it more , then they really dug a hole into it , ” he read . “ But we miss a Brobdingnagian gravy boat on that theatrical role and I do n’t suppose it ’ll ever make out back around . But I ’m really just looking forrad to finishing out this whole journey . ”

Bautista ’s journey is probable to end in May 2023 when Guardians Vol . 3 comes out . However , if Drax does live on , it sounds like Bautista is fine let someone else don the head - to - toe makeup .
