It is intended to be the tenth installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Even though filming on Guardians of the Galaxy is set to begin soon, the casting is still somewhat of a jumble. An impressive array of talent considering the franchise itself is one of Marvel’s lesser known to the general public. So, let's get details about 10 superheroes and cast of Guardians Of The Galaxy.

Chris Pratt as Peter Quill / Star-Lord: The Guardians leader, Peter Quill has been established as a half-human, half-Spartoi. Quill was raised on Earth by his mother, until he witnessed her death at the hand of two aliens attempting to erase the “Spartoi bloodline”.

Zoe Saldana as Gamora: Gamora’s equally close ties to Thanos have led to her reputation as the most dangerous woman in the galaxy. A green skinned humanoid is the last of a species that was exterminated by a race known as the Badoon. She also happens to be a skilled assassin.

Benicio Del Toro as The Collector: The Collector also had the power of prophecy, allowing him to foresee the rise of a being powerful enough to pose a threat to the Elders: Thanos. To protect life in the universe, the Collector created a massive museum of countless life forms to keep them safe from Thanos. For a time, he even possessed one of the six Infinity Gems, unaware of its true power, until Thanos took it.

Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer: Drax the Destroyer began as Arthur Douglas, an innocent man with his family driving through the desert, when Thanos attacks them, killing Arthur. The Titans Mentor and Kronos capture Douglas’ wandering spirit and provide it with the powerful new body for the purpose of killing Thanos, granting him the new identity of Drax the Destroyer. 

Michael Rooker as Yondu: Yondu Udonta is a member of the Zatoan tribe, primitive beings native to Centauri IV. He functions as a hunter. His homeworld was the first planet to be colonized by humans that was outside Earth's solar system. Yondu is born in the late thirtieth century. Yondu's people had fled from contact with overwhelming earth colonizers who had begun arriving in 2940 A.D.

John C. Reilly as Rhomman Dey: Rhomann Dey was the leader of the Nova Corps of Xandar and one of its few survivors. When the Warlord Zorr attacked Xandar, he devastated it and killed many Xandarians including Dey's wife and child. Dey hunted Zorr and battled him.

Glenn Close as his Nova Corps supervisor: The Nova Centurion designated as 'Prime' is the highest-ranking member of the Nova Corps. The Nova Prime is endowed with a vast portion of the Nova-Force, and capable of Great feats of energy manipulation/Projection.

Lee Pace as Ronan the Accuser: Ronan was born on the planet Hala, the capital of the Kree Empire in the Greater Magellanic Cloud. Ronan is a member of the alien Kree race and a member of the Accuser Corps, who are the Kree equivalent of military governors and jurists. His rise through the ranks was extraordinary, and he eventually became the third-most powerful being in the Kree Empire.

Karen Gillan as Nebula: A brutal space pirate and mercenary, Nebula seized control of Sanctuary II, a massive spaceship previously under the command of Thanos. Thanos were believed to be dead at this point, and Nebula claimed that he had been her grandfather. Nebula's band of mercenaries and pirates consisted of Skunge, Kehl, Gunthar, and Levan.
