Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2: 11 Huge Questions From The Final Trailer

2. Whose Side Is He On?

Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2 Questions Ego
Marvel Studios

He may be Peter Quill's father, but that doesn't make Ego a good guy automatically.

There's still a heck of a lot we don't know about Ego, from what he's been doing in the years absent from his son's life to why he's suddenly back in it now, nor where his alleigances truly lie.

You don't hire an actor of Russell's stature to *just* be a father-figure, but instead have something deeper going on (or so you'd think, anyway). It's likely there's more to Ego than we currently know, but whether that's as a hero, a villain, or something betwixt the two remains to be seen.
