Will Poulter On Getting Buff to Play Adam Warlock on 'Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3'
Ойын-сауық
"It was my job to train and eat," Will Poulter joked about his physical transformation of Adam Warlock. The first footage of Warlock debuted at San Diego Comic-Con to an elated crowd. The actor also said he leaned on, "the folks who are already embedded in the MCU" specifically Chris Pratt who gave him lots of tips.

I remember when Will was being underestimated to play Adam because of his physical attribute and his popular meme. Look at him now. What a glow!
Will genuinely looks like Adam Warlock, i mean if you look at a comic of Adam warlock will here looks very much hiw he looks in the comics. I'm sure will is gonna do a great job, he's taken on more serious types of roles after narnia, like the film Detroit where he plays a racist cop. He's really grown in the last 10 years, obviously physically, but also as an actor as well.

He looks nothing like the comics whatsoever. He dyed his hair gold. That's about it. There are no other similarities between him and the comics. That doesn't mean he won't do a good job. He can act forsure. Especially if they are taking this movie in a more serious direction than the other guardians movies. But to specifically say he looks like the comics is ridiculous and not true.

From Narnia to Maze Runner and now the MCU!
GUYS! Remember that he was also initially cast as Pennywise in the new It before Bill Skarsgard took over because of scheduling conflicts and changing directors. If Bill was such a grand actor to do Pennywise, imagine what Will could do with this character. But yeah Will had a big glow up. He was cute but annoying in Narnia, then adorkable in We're The Millers. He went from: I'll bring her home at 9 to I'll bring her home whenever I want.
