DraxCharacter guide · Dave Bautista

Dave Bautista plays Drax in Guardians of the Galaxy. Driven by revenge, Drax becomes one of the unlikely allies caught up in Peter Quill’s confrontation with Ronan. The first film brings his personal motivation into a group whose members do not initially share a purpose.

Listen for more than the punchline

Drax’s blunt delivery can make a scene funny, but give the quieter responses around it equal attention. Notice what he takes seriously, what he misunderstands and how his fellow travelers react. Following those exchanges lets his place in the group develop beyond the scale of the action.

Start with Guardians of the Galaxy and Vol. 2 before following the group into Infinity War. The crossover brings in other storylines, so consult its film guide before continuing. Later films and the holiday special remain linked in the catalog below.
