Looks like the Guardians of the Galaxy will be short my sun and stars as Game of Thrones' Jason Momoa has reportedly passed on playing Drax the Destroyer in Marvel's upcoming movie.
Momoa was first linked with the role earlier this month, with Marvel reportedly also screen-testing Isaiah Mustafa (yes, the Old Spice guy), MMA fighter and former wrestler Dave Bautista (The Scorpion King 3, The Man With the Iron Fists), and Brian Patrick Wade (Generation Kill) at the time.
Marvel Studios is notorious for its hardball negotiation tactics and low-salary offers (unless, of course, you're Robert Downey Jr.) and Momoa (and his reps) wouldn't be the first to balk at Marvel's offer.
However, as Latino-Review scoop-meister El Mayimbe tweets, "Marvel is back to screen testing actors for Drax. Somebody needs to remind Momoa that nobody saw his last 2 films & take Marvel's offer."
