The connection between Gears of War and Dave Bautista
Dave Bautista is already a character in the Gears of War universe. In Gears of War 5 DLC, Dave Bautista made an appearance as a playable character. The clip that Dave shared in his tweet was from a trailer that announced his cameo in the 5th GoW. But Dave wasn’t satisfied by just appearing in the game. He wanted to become his favorite character.
So much so that when he was approached for a Fast and Furious movie, all Dave could think about was Gears of War. “They wanted to talk to me about Fast and the Furious, and I said ‘I’m not interested, let’s talk about [Gears of War character] Marcus Fenix,” said the former WWE legend.
Recently Dave announced that he is no longer going to appear in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy movies as Drax the Destroyer. This is a huge indicator that the actor is available to take on other big roles. Also looking at the actor’s passion for the role and fans’ anticipation, this time it may become a reality for Dave Bautista to finally don the shoes of his ‘dream role’.
