During the Spectre press tour, Dave Bautista, who plays the villain Mr. Hinx in the film, has been talking to reporters, who of course have also been asking him about the future of Drax in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While that means more Guardians of the Galaxy, as writer/director James Gunn has already gone to Atlanta, GA to prep for filming, it could also mean more, including a crossover with the Avengers, perhaps for at least part of the Infinity War two-film project.

"I pray every day... and night, and afternoon, and after you walk out the door I'll go pray and say, 'Please let Drax be in The Avengers.' (laughs) Yeah, I hope it'll happen," Bautista told ScreenRant. When they first asked about his desire, he said, simply, "Hell yeah! Yeah, of course I would."

The actor, a former WWE Superstar, has quickly jumped into Hollywood as a strongman, securing roles in multiple major franchises, plus some smaller roles/film series like Riddick.

This isn't the first time Bautista has openly campaigned for the team-up, either. Back in April, he said, "Strictly as a fanboy I hope that the worlds collide and we get together with the Avengers."
