Dave Bautista Answers Fans in First Installment of ‘Ask Marvel!’
Check out Marvel’s brand new video series, ‘Ask Marvel!’ What’s ‘Ask Marvel?’ Well, it’s a new weekly video series allowing fans to ask questions of their favorite Marvel creators, actors, movers and shakers! What’s the forum utilized by Marvel fans to cantankerously critique their favorite Marvel creators? Twitter! YAY!
Today’s very first installment (above) focuses on Dave Bautista, responsible for the deliberately laconic portrayal of destiny-bound warrior, Drax the Destroyer! You remember Drax, right? He was from freaking Guardians of the Galaxy! Exactly!
Ok, that’s enough out of me. It’s time to let the Official Marvel Press Release expound on this…officially.
“Inquiring minds want to know! Beginning today, Marvel is excited to present an all-new video series devoted to giving fans the chance to have their Tweets answered by some of the actors, creators and names that are synonymous with the House of Ideas with ASK MARVEL.
Available today Marvel.com and on Marvel’s YouTube page, ASK MARVEL places Drax himself, Dave Bautista, in the hot seat to grill him with some of the most thought-provoking and off-the-wall questions that intend to offer a new and never-before-seen side to Dave “The Destroyer” Bautista.
Fans will have the chance to get their questions answered by Tweeting them with the hashtag #AskMarvel. A panel of Marvel’s best and brightest from across the galaxy will tackle the most important questions in an impromptu-style Q&A session. Questions such as: What does Hawkeye do in his free time? What kind of pizza does the Punisher eat? If your character had their own fragrance line, what would it be called?
New episodes will be made available every Thursday on Marvel.com and on Marvel’s YouTube page with guests like Charlie Cox, Joe Quesada, and many more scheduled to appear.
“We’ve been answering fans’ questions in our letters pages, at convention panels, and on our This Week in Marvel podcast for years, so we felt it was time to collect the burning questions our fandom constantly poses, get them in front of a wide array of Marvel folks, and put it all on video,” says Ryan Penagos, VP & Executive Editor for Marvel’s Digital Media Group.
