Regarding Diesel’s character Groot, Gunn also revealed that there is a special version of the script for the actor. “This is the special Groot version of the script that only Vin Diesel and I have, where every Groot line is printed in English instead of Groot, so Vin will know what the various ‘I am Groot’s’ mean. I love putting this thing together.”
