"I don't know what the script of the third film is, to be honest with you," bautista to IGN's Joseph Knoop, "There was a script years ago that obviously is going to have to change because the whole direction of the Marvel universe has changed." 

Bautista said director James Gunn had previously pitched a spin-off movie between Bautista's Drax and Pom Klementieff's Mantis.

"There were talks for a while about a Drax and Mantis film," Bautista said. "It was really because it was James Gunn's idea. He really wanted to do a Drax and Mantis film. He laid it out to me. I thought it was such a brilliant idea, but I haven't heard any follow-up from the studio. I don't think they're very interested, or it doesn't fit into the way they have things mapped out." 

Bautista also said, Vol. 3 is "probably going to be the end of Drax."

The actor on Friday doubled down on his comments on Twitter, saying, "Drax isn't going anywhere. He just won't be played by this dude!" [twitter]
