Teenage Groot to be played by Apes star Terry Notary
With production on the untitled fourth Avengers movie going full steam ahead, its finally been confirmed who plays a key character in the two-part Marvel Saga. According to an interview with Yahoo, noted motion capture performer Terry Notary — best known as Rocket in the recent Planet of the Apes trilogy — will be portraying Teenage Groot in Avengers: Infinity War and, presumably, Avengers 4 as well. Teenage Groot made his first appearance in a post-credits scene in this summer’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
“Yes, I am playing teenage Groot,” Notary confirmed. “I’m having a blast with it. It’s really, really fun. I can’t say too much about him, but he’s coming of age, so you’ll see the teenager find a mentor to look up to and to model himself after. The character’s great, and the films are going to be great. We’ve got such an amazing cast and a great pair of directors at the helm. The Russos allow the actors to jam on scenes together to the point where it just feels great and everybody gets their moments.”

Directors Anthony and Joe Russo, who return after Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War, are directing both Avengers: Infinity War and the untitled fourth film, which are being filmed back-to-back in Atlanta and are written by screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. Both films will also be shot entirely with IMAX cameras.
Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War is slated for a release in theaters on May 4, 2018. Then, the Avengers assemble again for the still-untitled fourth film, set for May 3, 2019.
