Marvel Testing Actors For The Role Of Star-Lord In ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy’

Deadline has revealed that Marvel Studios has a short list of actors for the role of Peter Quill aka Star-Lord in Phase Two’s Guardians Of The Galaxy. Joel Edgerton (Warrior), Jack Huston (Boardwalk Empire), Jim Sturgess (Cloud Atlas), Lee Pace (The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey) and Eddie Redmayne (Les Miserables) have all signed test deals for the lead role in the upcoming film.

Now, while these actors are all in the running Marvel Studios apparently also is interested Garrett Hedlund (Tron: Legacy), James Marsden (X-Men) and Sullivan Stapleton (Animal Kingdom). It’s still shocking and quite awesome that we’re actually reporting casting news for a Guardians Of The Galaxy film.
