Vin Diesel Hints at New Marvel Role
Groot appears to be branching out.
Actor Vin Diesel, who voiced the human-tree hybrid in 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy, posted a Facebook picture that suggests he’s interested in a role in a different Marvel franchise.
"Are you inhuman?" read Diesel’s message in the image he posted to the social-networking site Sunday.

This is not the first time Diesel has seemingly expressed interest in the role. In August, he posted a message reading: “I get the strange feeling that Marvel thinks I’m Inhuman… Haha.”
A film based on the Marvel comic Inhumans is set to hit theaters Nov. 28, 2018. A cast has yet to be announced, but it would seem feasible that Diesel could be involved in both Marvel franchises, since he only provides a voice in Guardians.
