"Guardians of the Galaxy" Vol. 2 is one of the anticipated films this year. For those who love the adorable character Groot, its voice actor Vin Diesel teases that the superhero might have its own spinoff solo film.

Comicbook reported that a Groot solo film is inevitable, this is following Diesel's statement in a recent interview with MTV. The "Fast and Furious 8" star who is also promoting his other film "xXx: onThe Return of Xander Cage" believes that the fan-favorite superhero, Baby Groot deserves his own solo flick.

"I think it's inevitable, I think, ya know, that character's so enigmatic," Vin Diesel said in the interview. The actor explained that Groot is the most unique creature in the Marvel Universe and added that it has "exceeded anyone and everyone's expectations."

The "Guardians of the Galaxy" star admitted that he is also impressed with his character. In fact, he finds Groot genius. The character is popular due to his famous line "I Am Groot."

Aside from the potential Groot solo film, Diesel gives fans a glimpse of the potential Groot versus Hulk encounter. Per EpicStream, Mark Ruffalo's green monster, Hulk is hot tempered. Meanwhile, Diesel's Groot lacks communication skills. Thus, it is inevitable that the two will be in rough misunderstanding.

Diesel pictured out that dreaded but fun encounter will include Rocket Raccoon saying foul words to Hulk that will trigger the latter to be mad. Then Groot will step up.

Marvel fans would also love to see Hulk and Groot sharing the same screen. Hopefully in "Avengers: Infinity War." However, at the time, this is still not confirmed.

Meanwhile, for those who wish an update for "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2," director James Gunn just shared a video of the orchestra playing the film's musical score. At the time his Facebook Live post has already gained over 4,000 views.

Many are happy and impressed with Gunn's generosity to share such piece. Per Nerdist, Gunn is the most fan-friendly director in the Marvel Studios.
