Vin Diesel confirms that characters from the movie "Guardians of the Galaxy" will appear in the "Avengers: Infinity War" film.

Diesel is one of the casts in the "Guardians of the Galaxy" movie and verified that his fellow characters will have an appearance in "Avengers: Infinity War"; however, he didn't mention how the "Guardians" will be inserted into the movie, or if they will appear side-by-side with the "Avengers", Polygon reported.

"The Guardians will be included in Avengers: Infinity War and that's very incredibly exciting," Diesel said. "Incredibly exciting. Incredibly exciting and something that if you were a part of our page, you knew before everybody."

Diesel voices the extraterrestrial tree, Groot in "Guardians of the Galaxy". He didn't disclose additional details and Marvel representatives cannot be contacted for an immediate response. Probably, his fellow "Guardians" characters like Bradley Cooper (as Rocket), Dave Bautista (as Drax), Chris Prat (as Star-Lord), and Zoe Saldaña will join him, according to E! News.

Even if the "Avengers" and "Guardians" appertain to the same symbiotic universe, they haven't overlain much so far. On the contrary, Thanos' pursuit for the Infinity Stones will carry together primarily the whole Marvel Cinematic in "Avengers: Infinity War" and/or Avengers.

Infinity Stones are six colossally potent objects linked to different phases of the universe, yielded by the Cosmic Entities. Each stone commands special capabilities enhanced and modified by different civilizations across thousands of years. Only creatures with great power can manage the stones.

Details on events and casts for "Avengers: Infinity War" are being kept secret for now but brother directors Joe and Anthony Russo have suggested that the film is going to have a ponderous realm and a huge production. The Russo brothers also directed "Captain America: Civil War". The "Avengers: Infinity War" will hit movie theaters on May 4, 2018.
