Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 made Bradley Copper cry
A question and answer session at the Santa Barbara Film Festival saw Bradley Cooper share a poignant anecdote about his work voicing Rocket in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The actor shared how the sound Rocket makes when the High Evolutionary kills Lylla, was actually voiced by him keeping in mind his father's passing. That is what made the scene all the more hard-hitting for Cooper when he watched it back.

He said, "This last one, I'm not sure if you've watched it, but I actually cried like crazy. There's a scene where he loses his friend and the sound Rocket makes is something I could only relate to, is the sound my own voice when my dad passed away. When we did it on the sound stage, I think everybody knew there was some deep truth to the sound that came out of my mouth and I think that's why that moment in the movie is really like, 'Holy...' "
