Its the End of an Era as Guardians of the Galaxy Fans Prepare to Say Good-bye to Drax
Though all Marvel fans were focused on premiere of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness last week, another important Marvel milestone happened – Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 officially wrapped. That means its also the end of David Bautista’s run as Drax, the Destroyer in the films.
You can check out Bautista’s Instagram post discussing the end of his time as Drax below:

“Haven’t found the words yet,” Bautista wrote on the post above “It ended so suddenly and I was on to my next film before I could process it all. End of a journey that changed my life.”
Bautista has previously been outspoken about the fact that he would only be in the role of Drax for three films. According to a recent piece in Variety, Batista told Ellen DeGeneres last summer that the third film would be his final adding, “I didn’t think [me leaving the MCU] was going to be news because I figured everybody assumed it. This is how this works — we work in trilogies, and James Gunn has already announced that it’s his last film and when James is done, I’m done.”
After over 100 days of shooting & over 3000 shots, this is the slate for the final shot of #GotGVol3, presented to me by the camera crew. It was an easy shot of Rocket seated, 1st with @seangunn, & then nothing there, & took everything in me not to break down sobbing on the spot. pic.twitter.com/pOrTjfab2h
