Considering that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is James Gunn’s last Marvel project, there’s no denying that making any memorable achievements or cameos would render the end of the franchise unforgettable.
One of these cameos involves Pete Davidson, living proof that Gunn sticks to his word when it comes to having recurring actors in plenty of his films.
Davidson previously worked with the director in DCU’s The Suicide Squad, and ended up joining the MCU by debuting in two roles.

Upon answering one of Gunn’s fan questions, the GOTG 3 director has revealed two things: Peter Davidson’s MCU debut consists of two roles and that Gunn himself has appeared in his own threequel, as well.
While Gunn revealed to be the voice behind Lambshank, The Suicide Squad star played Phlektik’s voice and live-action role! Check out Gunn’s tweet below:
“I voiced the beautiful Lambshank. I don’t want to show her here because she’s too gorgeous & I don’t want folks to feel bad about themselves in comparison.” Gunn tweeted.
The Guardians 3 director added: “And my friend Pete [Davidson] not only voiced but actually came to visit us in Atlanta for a day and played Phlektik on set.”

When Drax, Mantis, and Nebula discovered what the High Evolutionary had been stowing away in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, the group worked together in freeing the imprisoned creations.
In the middle of doing so, Mantis found one particular creation, a scary blob named Phlektik, that caught her screaming in fear.
Davidson’s character definitely made a memorable MCU cameo and debut altogether with Mantis.
It remains to be seen whether his MCU role is a one-time thing or a recurring character should Gunn return to helm yet another Guardians film, if given the chance.
For now, you can catch Pete Davidson’s MCU debut in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, now showing in theaters worldwide.
