Although Dave Bautista has been acting since the mid-2000s, that portion of his career received a major boost when he debuted as Drax the Destroyer. Nearly a decade later, he’s now made seven appearances as the character, including in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, one of the latest 2023 new movie releases. However, Bautista said earlier this year that while he “loved” Drax, he’s ready to move on from the role and wants to “do more dramatic stuff.” Keeping that in mind, it’s been announced that the actor has scored the lead role in a long-awaited action movie.
