"The cast of Guardians of the Galaxy was officially unveiled at Comic-Con on Saturday (July 20). Chris Pratt as Peter Quill / Star-Lord was the only cast member who had officially been announced by Marvel Studios, but the full cast - including Zoe Saldana as Gamora, Karen Gillan as Nebula and Benicio Del Toro as The Collector \u2013\u00A0made a surprise appearance in San Diego alongside Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige.   While Saldana acknowledged that they still have &amp;quot;85% of the movie left to shoot&amp;quot;, the cast and director James Gunn offered some broad hints about their characters and the film&amp;#039;s themes.  &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s about a family pulling together,&amp;quot; Gunn said. &amp;quot;This is a group of individuals who have acted selfishly throughout their lives, learning something that makes them heroes.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;This is sort of like the anti-hero hero movie,&amp;quot; Saldana mused. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re meeting these characters, they&amp;#039;re thieves, they&amp;#039;re rebels, they&amp;#039;re assassins, and they&amp;#039;re going to be learning very big lessons.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;There&amp;#039;s a petulance to him,&amp;quot; Pratt explained, when asked about his protagonist Peter Quill. &amp;quot;Without going too much into his origin, he hasn&amp;#039;t been really held accountable as an adult. he&amp;#039;s just been free in space and able to do whatever he&amp;#039;s wanted to do.&amp;quot;   Gillan, who appeared with a fully shaven head, teased that her character Nebula has &amp;quot;a strange, complex relationship&amp;quot; with Saldana&amp;#039;s Gamora. Asked whether he feels nervous about Guardians as a lesser-known Marvel property, compared to the studio&amp;#039;s previous movies, Pratt argued: &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t think the reason that all the Marvel movies so far have been received so well is because they were such famous comic books.  &amp;quot;They were just great stories. Iron Man is Iron Man now to people because of Iron Man the movie.&amp;quot;  The full confirmed cast for Guardians of the Galaxy is Chris Pratt as Peter Quill / Star-Lord, Zoe Saldana as Gamora, Karen Gillan as Nebula, Lee Pace as Ronan the Accuser, Michael Rooker as Yondu, Benicio Del Toro as The Collector, Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer, John C Reilly as Rhomann and Djimon Hounsou as Koranth. Guardians of the Galaxy will be released on August 1, 2014.  Gallery \u2013\u00A0Comic-Con 2013  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
