Star Lord from Guardians of the Galaxy coming to Walt Disney World

Feb 08, 2017 in "Character Meet and Greets at Disney's Hollywood Studios"

According to a recent Disney Audition posting, Star Lord from Guardians of the Galaxy will be appearing at Walt Disney World within the next two months.

The audition calls the opportunity a "special limited engagement." This phrase has been used before, most recently for the Doctor Strange character experience at Disney's Hollywood Studios. 

Here is the full post:

Disney Creative Entertainment is seeking Male Look-alike performers to help portray Peter Quill, a.k.a. Star-Lord from the film, Guardians of the Galaxy, at an upcoming special limited engagement at the Walt Disney World® Resort, near Orlando, FL. Performers should be local to the Central Florida area, and should be available to begin work within the next two months.

DCA meet and greet from this summer: That Groot is much cooler IMHO than the little toy one on a table at DHS. The Star Lord looks much better too although the guy at DHS had the personality and attitude down perfect.

They are not listed in the app or on the Times Guide. Hours are currently 10am-8pm. ;)

It’s still there. You have to walk to the back of the exhibit and the line forms there. It wasn’t too crowded either. It’s pretty cool except I was expecting big groot but it’s baby groot from the second movie.

Thanks. I keep looking for it on the app, and I’m not finding anything.

It does indeed. I was there a few weeks ago.

Sorry for the thread bump, but does this still exist? I’ll be at DHS on Saturday.

This might be a dumb question, but where exactly is this M&G? I haven't been in One Man's Dream since Feb 2015 (didn't go to DHS during our Nov 2016 trip and only spent a half day there in April 2017 because our then one year old just had so much more to do at the other parks, especially MK). Is there pretty clear signage once inside, and how is the wait usually? Thanks!

We went to see Star Lord and Groot about three weeks ago. I didn't read up on it previously, so we thought it was going to be full-size groot. Regardless, Baby Groot was still pretty neat and interactive (well, as interactive as he can be! Lol). Peter Quill had the right voicing and mannerisms, but not as good as a copy, face-wise,as @ItlngrlBella had in her video. Still, we all enjoyed it, even my little one who is scared of everything. In the pics below, we played peak-a-Groot, and we got a kick out of that.

They did a good job with Rocket, reminds me of this "fan". Except that one in the video looks pretty "muscular" lol.

What's worse is that Black Widow won't return my phone calls.
