"The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special" director James Gunn said that Kevin Bacon does not like Christmas as much as his character in the new Disney+ special.
Bacon plays himself in the latest Marvel special, which premieres on Disney+ Friday, as Drax (Dave Bautista) and Mantis (Pom Klementieff) take him across the galaxy as a gift for their leader, Star-Lord (Chris Pratt).
He added: "The best thing for the holiday special is Kevin Bacon, and if that means that Kevin Bacon is a different character later on in the MCU, it doesn't really matter.
