Bautista took on the role of Drax for the first time in Guardians of the Galaxy last year and he will be returning for the sequel, which is due to start filming next year.

There have been plenty of rumours as to which characters we are going to see in Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 and Part 2 and Bautista is praying that he will be in the mix when the cameras start rolling.

Speaking to ScreenRant, the actor said: "Yeah, come on, man. Hell yeah. Yeah, of course I would. At the core of me is the biggest geek you've ever met. I'm a superhero fan first and foremost, and... of course, man, I want that to happen.

"It's rumours right now, but, you know, I pray every day... and night, and afternoon, and after you walk out the door I'll go pray and say, 'Please let Drax be in The Avengers.' Yeah, I hope it'll happen."

But before we potentially sees Drax in his first Avengers film, he will be back in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, which is due to hit the big screen in 2017.

The movie will see James Gunn back in the director's chair and the filmmaker has been working on the new screenplay for some time. While no details on the plot or who the villain may be this time around, Bautista, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana and Bradley Cooper are all expected to return.

As for Bautista, he will be back on the big screen at the end of October as he joins the James Bond franchise for the first time. The actor is set to take on the role of Mr. Hinx in Spectre and is one of a series of new face on the cast list; Christoph Waltz, Andrew Scott, Monica Bellucci, and Léa Seydoux are all also on board.

The actor has also completed work on Heist, Warrior's Gate, andKickboxer: Vengeance. He is currently filming Marauders.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is released 28th April 2017. Avengers: Infinity War Part 1 and Part two are set to hit the big screen in 2018 and 2019.
