Until Marvel says so we should just take it for what it is &#8230; nothing. He as hinted in the past about playing other Marvel characters, so this maybe another one of those things he throws out there to see if it sticks. Personally (I&#8217;m a fan of Diesel) was hoping for something more than a character that says only, &#8220;I am Groot.&#8221; Sound off in the comments below &#8230; good pick for Groot? &#8230; want Diesel to play a bigger part in the Marvel movies? &#8230; don&#8217;t want Diesel in Marvel movies at all?
