Hvem spiller groot fra guardians of the galaxy?
Vin Diesel
Groot optræder i Marvel Cinematic Universe-filmen Guardians of the Galaxy fra 2014, med Vin Diesel som stemmefører (som lagde stemme til en række af de sprog, filmen blev udgivet på, og som også leverede nogle motion capture-elementer til figuren). Selv om han i begyndelsen blot beskrives som Rockets lejede muskel, viser han en blødere side i løbet af filmen, idet han dyrker en blomst for at give den til en lille pige og redder Drax the Destroyer's liv, selv efter at Drax' handlinger bragte Ronan the Accuser's styrker til dem. Han er enig med Peter Quill i hans plan om at stå op imod Ronan, og senere ofrer han tilsyneladende sig selv for at redde resten af holdet ved at indhylle dem i en trækugle, der er vokset af ham selv, da Ronans skib styrter ned. I filmens slutning har Rocket fundet en kvist fra Groot, som vises vokse til en miniature Groot; denne nye Groot er faktisk Groot's afkom. Da han ofrer sig selv, siger han faktisk en anden sætning, "We are Groot", hvilket antyder et bånd, der er dannet mellem heltene.
Vin Diesel
Groot appears in the 2014 Marvel Cinematic Universe film Guardians of the Galaxy, voiced by Vin Diesel (who performed the voice work for a number of languages the movie was released in and also provided some motion capture elements for the character). Although initially simply described as Rocket's hired muscle, he shows a softer side throughout the film, growing a flower to give to a little girl and saving Drax the Destroyer's life even after Drax's actions brought Ronan the Accuser's forces to them. He agrees with Peter Quill's plan to stand up to Ronan, and later seemingly sacrifices himself to save the rest of the team by enveloping them in a wooden ball grown from himself as Ronan's ship crashes. At the film's conclusion, Rocket has recovered a twig from Groot, which is shown to be regrowing into a miniature Groot; this new Groot is actually Groot's offspring. When sacrificing himself, he actually speaks another phrase, "We are Groot", which implies a bond formed among the heroes.
