The Oscar winning actor Matthew McConaughey declined to play a role on "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2," and decided to be part of the film "The Dark Tower." Based on reports, he was supposed to be the best choice to play the role of Star-Lord's father, which he decided to decline.
According to IGN, McConaughey has given an explanation as to why he turned down his role on "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2." During an interview with Playboy, he stated that "he'd feel like an amendment." The actor was referring to his role in the upcoming sequel of "Guardians of the Galaxy," and he added that "The Dark Tower" has a much well-written script, and he loves the way it was being directed.
In fact, the name of the character he has declined was not confirmed until now. So far in his interview, the actor has been praising "The Dark Tower" and has even mentioned his role as the Man in Black.
McConaughey quoted, "I like the director and his take on it, and I can be the creator, the author of the Man in Black-a.k.a. the Devil-in my version of this Stephen King novel." The actor really appeared to be more intrigued to be part of "The Dark Tower," which may have been rather disappointing for the many fans of the upcoming sequel of "Guardians of the Galaxy."
According to Collider, McConaughey has chosen a role in a franchise-starter. Despite how well crafted the sequel of "Guardians of the Galaxy" is which was directed by James Gunn, a window of opportunity might be opened in "The Dark Tower" for the actor. The decision of the actor actually makes sense considering that he would take a rather uncertain and more challenging career path.
The upcoming marvel film sequel may have lost a huge boost in his cast because of the actor's refusal though it doesn't mean the film will simply fall apart. It is now up to the viewers to decide whether the actor made a good call or a bad one.
